Who has the best/worst tattoos on TD?

**taxexile** · 12-09-2013, 12:12 AM

The more ink you have the more of an individual you are

What utter bilge, these days it signifies nothing more than a being a blind slave to a rapidly dating fashion.

Where is the individualism in following the other millions of fashion slaves to join the queue outside the tattoo shop, sorry, studio.

Idiot.

^ The exact same could be said for everything else. Everybody wore the same bell bottomed jeans when they were in fashion, now lots of youngsters all wear skinny jeans.

So basically you are condemning any kind kind of following of fashion? Jesus, I'd love to see what you wear when you go out for the night if it's something that isn't remotely fashionable and nobody else wears.

You just sound like the stereo typical old man at odds wit a world he no longer recognises. Quite sad really.

Trouble is...You can change the jeans!

I commended a young lad who signed my ticket today , natural skin from his finger tips up to his shoulders .

I said well done you ,,, you stand out in a crowd , you are individual , you have no need to try to make yourself look like all the other numpties .

I reckon in 5 years time in the UK it will be a rare sight to see anyone without tatts.

I was driving along this morn eating an egg custard when I caught a glance of some munta wobbling along with the tops of her tattooed jugs spilling out ,, yuk ! I lobbed the remainder of me egg custard out me window

That's true mate but it doesn't change the principle in the slightest. Tattoos whether permanent or not are a fashion that over 33% of people between the ages of 18-40 have. Taxexile's theory about them being bad because so many people have them that they are no longer individual is highly flawed. The same could be said for any kind of trend or fashion in society.

It all comes down to what kind of people have them. Taxexile has decide that only X Y & Z people have tattoos and this is 100% factually inaccurate. He has convinced himself of this because it backs up and justifies his his negative and highly subjective opinions of them.

The reality is that X Y and Z people do have them but so do A B C & D and probably in equal numbers. It is a fact in modern society that bankers, lawyers, nurses have tattoos. Policeman are covered in them, and they wear short sleeve shirts in summer. Is taxexile going to try and tell us that the police are low life criminals?

Even the prime ministers wife who couldn't be more prim and proper if she tried has one, what more could you possibly need to know than that to realise the diversity in the kind of people that have tattoos and how they are thought of (or not really thought of at all) in modern society.

In my opinion taxexile knows full well that he's wrong, he's just not man enough to hold his hands up and admit it. He hates them with a passion and has tried to bend the truth to justify his reasons. He's prepared to blatantly ignore and refuse to accept the facts that clearly show his theory to be nonsense. He doesn't like them, good for him, but his reasons for not liking them are fabricated and factually incorrect, thus proving that the way he feels about them is highly illogical and irrational.

No you didn't. And if you really did, you need to man up.

**Aberlour** · 12-09-2013, 01:58 AM

^ If he means a custard tart the ones with nutmeg sprinkles on top I couldn't agree more. I'd of had it rather see it go to waste. Fucking sacrilege.

....or, he's just fuckin' with ya. Knowing full well the seemingly constipated and literal response that would predictibly follow from you.

Didn't hard man Pikey Dave even fess up to not having tatts, but got the henna ones on the beach.

Taxexile's theory about them being bad because so many people have them that they are no longer individual is highly flawed. The same could be said for any kind of trend or fashion in society.

Someone made the ridiculous claim that tattoos are indicative of individualism, whereas in fact because they are so "common" they are more indicative of the herdlike follow my leader mentality of that most unindividual of beasts, the sheep.

Individualists are more likely to dictate and lead fashion, sensibly jumping ship and moving on to something else before saturation occurs, but with a tattoo, jumping ship is not an option, like the hotel california, you can check in, but you cant check out, and that is why the judgement and intelligence of the inked must always be suspect and they will be treated with a certain amount of suspicion, whether warranted or not.

Abelour, like the rest of the easily impressed, will always slavishly follow these superficial fashions, hoping to bask in the reflected glory he thinks these grotesque mutilations bring as he fires off inane insults about the older and wiser members like a child flicking snot across the classroom.

The uninked, quietly and unobtrusively going about their business, know different.

We have nothing to prove.

I don't think so. You're so knacker deep in this forum malarkey jeff that you don't seem to realise that that would make him an even bigger kunt anyway. So either way, makes no odds to me.
