Poll: Who here has a tattoo?

[WoundedWallet]

Cool link about the iceman tatoos.

I've had a tatoo for twenty years now and I love it more and more as time goes by.

I guess it depends on the each one's state of mind while selecting a tatoo. In my case I was having a great time and I picked something that reflected that.

Sadly though it seems that a lot of the new tatoos represent more pain than pleasure. I'm not sure that I'd like to be reminded of a painful time for the rest of my life.

I have a tattoo of a moogle on my left shoulder.

It's the one from the FFIII(VI) box cover, if you know which one I'm talking about

I hope that modern tattoos really don't get fuzzy with age. But can you really be sure? My brother in law has a bunch, done about twenty years ago. They look terrible, you can hardly tell what they once were. He lives in Ga. and wears long sleeve shirts almost all the time.

Ok ... I have to say that I didn't get my tattoo for any rebellious purpose ... I did it because I'm a very artistic person (even won the outstanding art student of the year award in highschool and had a art piece put on exhibit once) I've always been fascinated by tattoos ever since I was a little kid ... My parents always told me not to have one ... I told my mom the only reason that I didn't have one was because I couldn't think of anything that I could be happy with for the rest of my life and I wouldn't ever get a tattoo until I was sure of that ... well when I was 20 my best friend and I decided that we wanted something to represent our friendship and our bond ... forever ... we chose matching Monarch Butterflies ... Butterflies because they are considered to be free spirits, and the Monarch specifically because they are endangered species and becoming more rare every day. February 22nd will make 3 years that we have had our tattoos ... I have never once regretted my tattoo ... I put it in a place where I could conceal or reveal it as I wished. No one sees it unless I want them to. Some people say tattoos are addictive ... I don't think they are ... I could see myself being happy for the rest of my life with just my one tattoo (although recently I have thought about when I have children getting a tattoo with their names). As for the fading ... when we got our tattoos the tattoo artist's wife showed us tattoos that he had done on her 10 years prior and they looked brand new ... my tattoo even at 3 years of age is so bright and so well defined it almost looks like a sticker.
