Do you have a tattoo? If so... What kind? Do you ever regret having it?

I don't. I've never found any artwork I wanted permanently attached to my body.

My father was in the navy and has two - one of the navy eagle and one of my mother's name in Japanese. He got them both over 50 years ago. They were really nice when they were new. Now they're just faded purple blotches. Tattoos last forever, but they don't look nice forever.

Oh I didn't know that. So they get old too.... - margaretbl, Nov 30, 2010
The inks fade, especially the bright ones, like red. Young people with tattoos keep saying the inks are better now, but 70 year old skin is not the same as the 18 year old skin it was inked on. - KevinB, Nov 30, 2010
Although they do fade you can always get them redone. - RAWRKAL, Dec 1, 2010

Tattoo, played by Hervé Villechaize.

Tattoo would run up the main bell tower to ring the bell and shout "The plane! The plane!" to announce the arrival of a new set of guests at the beginning of each episode of Fantasy Island.

This line, shown at the beginning of the show's credits, became an unlikely catch phrase because of Villechaize's spirited delivery and French accent (he actually pronounced it, "Ze plane! Ze plane!")

I have one, well, actually 3 in one area on my left arm. Mine started out with the Ruger firearms logo which is a phoenix. I am a big fan of their handguns. 2 years later I had my birth sign (pisces) put into it. 2 years after that I had it touched up and decided to put an amulet of waves underneath. My wife has 7 tattoos and had hers before we met. She was a bad influence on me. (Just kidding) Neither of us have any regrets. The Embera woman in the photo is giving me a jagua tattoo which is made from a fruit in Panama but it was only temporary.Too bad!!!alt text

Haha, why new? Do tatoos gross you out? (General Discussions can be different!) - margaretbl, Nov 30, 2010
No. I just don't think a random guy should know what is on my body. - valiente, Dec 1, 2010

I have three- a compass on my back (so I dont get lost), an angry flower on my inner calf that my friend drew in an old notebook (so I dont forget where I have been), and most recently, an image of Ix'chel on my bicep (so that I may draw upon her wisdom while working with plants) So far, I dont regret any of them smile Tatoos guns have been greatly improved over the last 50 years...if taken care of, tatoos can look nice forever (remember, they can only look as good as the skin they are on)

I don't have any tattoos. I sort of feel the same way about it as Kevin does. And I just know that I'll regret it later, and being an artist I'll want to change it!!!!

Tattoo you is the 16th British and 18th American studio album by The Rolling Stones, released in 1981. The follow-up to Emotional Rescue, it proved to be a big critical and commercial success.

A very popular album upon release, it is the last Rolling Stones album to reach the top position of the US charts, ending a string of number ones dating back to 1971's Sticky Fingers. However, I think that Start me up, Waiting on a friend and Hang Fire are the only tracks worth listening.

I've drawn up many designs, but I have decided that I'm too fickle to have something become part of my body permanently. I've settled for piercings instead (nothing crazy).

If I ever did get a tattoo, I'd likely get the Latin "aut disce aut discede" or a maple leaf.

I do not have any tattoos. I would have to have to worry about how to accessorize it. I'd also hate to have a cute flower tattoo from when I was young look like a wilted, dying flower when I'm old. I also think tattoos look really silly on old women.

I can, however, think of one good reason to get a tattoo. If you happen to die in some awful way without your wallet, they will be able to identify you. In my mind, not enough of an 'up' side to tilt it in the direction of getting one for myself.

That being said, to each their own.

No. I have a hard enough time maintaining my awesome good looks without having to worry about a tattoo turning into an indiscriminate blob of ink as I get older.
