No idea if pictures are allowed so I'm not going to risk it and ask you to google full body Japanese tattoos. That is far more awesome than a single tribal on your shoulder or half a sleeve on one arm imo. If you it, do it right.


Sorry. Not impressed. Looks dumb to me.

edit: of course pictures are allowed. Just don't spam Memes or nsfw piccy's and you'll be alright

Funny thing. Perception. I'd find half a sleeve far more dumb as in unfinished and therefore not really a full tattoo of something but I guess people can't just all go tattoo their entire bodies out of the blue either.
Body suit pictures tend to get NSFW quite fast when their asscheeks are visible or when they are holding their dick in their hands.


I find half a sleeve dumb as well. Thats already way too much. A zerg tattoo behind your shoulder or (why haven't anyone done this?) a TL horse on your elbow is far nicer. As an added bonus you can cover it up without excessive clothing if you're going to, say, on a job interview.

My problem with "body adornments", particularly tattoos, is that some of them, when they aren't thought through, don't carry gracefully into old age. For instance I like the Protoss logo, but I don't feel the need to have it etched into my body, especially since sometime in 10-20 years, it'll be irrelevant. And some might argue that it's an artifact from the past, but at that point it'll just look goofy. Not to mention that you'll likely have to continue the maintenance on a tattoo which represents something which you may not be interested in anymore...

That said, you do what you want with your body. Except big "plugs" in your ears... those things are incredibly repulsive. Don't stretch your earlobes, please.

Note: I have a keyring protoss logo thing, I feel like it's sufficient.

My opinion:

Piercing: Okay if the standard ear piercing, otherwise no way
Tatoos: Only if you are a pre-industrialization sailor
Other: Ew, no

I agree with this pretty much.

I'll be honest, I think some piercings are really sexy, (a small nose piercing, maybe a hip bar or a cartilage piercing) but some really push it. Things like clit piercings, sternum piercings, nipple piercings, etc. I don't think either way, but some things like eye lid piercings and stuff, too far.

EDIT: I mean piercings on girls, I'm not a big fan of piercings on guys, I feel like they just don't look that great on guys, call me old fashioned if you will .

Tattoos I'm not big on. They look awful, they are permanent in most cases (even with tattoo removal surgery) and in my opinion are rarely attractive/artsy. I know a lot of girls who think they are really sexy on guys, but imo, if you aren't an aspiring/successful artist or a sports star, don't get one. On subject, don't be that guy with a white tattoo, white tattoos may look a lot better than normal tattoos (imo) but honestly it's not worth it unless you are willing to live with a horribly deformed tattoo in your later life as your skin stretches.

Gauging I see on some people, but I just think it looks fucking awful, that hole looks TERRIBLE the bigger it gets.:r.

The rest of them. Just eww. Scarifications are disgusting. They just look awful. That's the best thing I can think of them, they look like you ripped your body out. The below-the-skin style body adornments could hardly be called adornments considering they look like enormous cysts that have formed into slightly recognizable shapes; also good luck if you get into a car accident and they shred your muscles when they break.

My opinions, not fact by any means.

What i thinkm about the different mods:

Piercing:
They can look both epic and tragic. I'm thinking of getting a pair of earrings with a chain arounf 5 cm each, which will have the Midgard Serpent at the end.

Tattoos.
Tattoos are like journals of your life. Personally, i want a tattoo for each great achivement in my life, like becommng a father.

Gauging.
Totally impractical in almost any physical activity. For lazy and rich people.

Dermal Implanting.
Neat. Would not do it myself, but can see the attraction.

Scarification.
I would use them the same way as a tattoo, just telling of a negative story. I will probably get one, if my children dies before me, or similar grueling events.
I can do anything i want, until otherwise is proven.

A few posts have been made by some TL-ers about their tattoo’s, but I’ve been wondering; what does the general populace here think of body adornment like:

Piercing;
Show nested quote +
Body piercing, a form of body modification, is the practice of puncturing or cutting a part of the human body, creating an opening in which jewelery may be worn. The word piercing can refer to the act or practice of body piercing, or to an opening in the body created by this act or practice.

Tattooing;
Show nested quote +
A tattoo is a form of body modification, made by inserting indelible ink into the dermis layer of the skin to change the pigment.
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]


Stretching/ Gauging
Show nested quote +
Stretching, in the context of body piercing, is the deliberate expansion of a healed piercing for the purpose of wearing certain types of jewelry. Ear piercings are the most commonly stretched piercings, with nasal septum piercings, tongue piercings and lip piercings/lip plates following close[citation needed] behind.

Dermal Implanting
Show nested quote +
A subdermal implant refers to a kind of body jewelry that is placed underneath the skin, therefore allowing the body to heal over the implant and creating a raised design.
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]
and

Scarification
Show nested quote +
Scarifying (also scarification modification) involves scratching, etching, burning / branding, or superficially cutting designs, pictures, or words into the skin as a permanent body modification.[1] In the process of body scarification, scars are formed by cutting or branding the skin by varying methods. Scarification is sometimes called cicatrization (from the French equivalent).

Do you have body art yourself? Maybe your partner, friends and/ or family, or do you maybe think that your body is your temple and shouldn't be modified?

My personal opinion:
I have multiple tattoo's, two of which I'll put in the spoiler below (please do so as well if you want to show off), so yeah, I really like them. However, even though some tattoo's look really nice on girls, I've yet to see a girl who's more beautiful with tattoo's than without.
It's hypocritical, I know^^

Piercing and scarring aren't really to my liking... Pierced ears are okay (even though I don't like it that young children get them), but al others... I don't really see the beauty of ramming a metal rod through your flesh.

And I think that, since this is art for your entire life, that it'll have some deeper meaning than 'ohhhh, shiny!'

I have one problem with tattoos: You should be VERY careful what you tattoo.

The worst thing would be some teeny-dream-stuff like some cool signs / mottos, because I doubt that things you found so tough and cool will be seen the same way when you are 50 or older. (Example: My cousin tattooed Thor´s hammer on his chest, I really really doubt that he will like it forever)

Oh and by the way, the argument "look my skin looks better with tattoos" is always countered by " how your tattoo looks when you get older".(skin folds)


Most people that are really, really into tattoos don't worry about making a decision they will be in love with forever.

They get tattoos because they appreciate the artform, think it's fun, and want to permanently document a moment or person or state of mind in their minds.

To people that don't understand tattoos, let me put in a way you might understand: Instead of thinking of your body as a sacred canvas or temple which anything less than a masterpiece would ruin; think of your body as a diary or journal that is the culmination of your life. There will be rough patches and mistakes and bad poetry in it, but some people have no problem sharing that with other people.


Still find it lame as f--- in nearly all cases, there seems to be a correlation between stupidity and body "art", because it's always the stupid person I know who goes and gets a some lame piercings and tattoos. And I dont buy the diary body thing, with the "rough patches and mistakes and bad poetry" I don't give a shit if they no problem sharing it, I don't care for it. It's also a very attention whorish thing if you think about it.

I have three cool birthmarks of moderate size and cunning allocation. Plus a thumb scar after woodchopping accident.

That stuff you're talking about belongs with sailors, criminals and prostitutes, period. Call me oldschool, but 100 years ago, people were sane enough to condemn everyone who willingly hurt himself just to get some moronic ornament on his/her body. And noone seems to tatoo really useful stuff like blood types, lists of allergies, credit card numbers or favourite build orders.

Okay, small tatoos might be acceptable on a hot girl as long as there's a chance to bang her.

People have gotten tattoos/pircings/scarrifications since the dawn of mankind.

Also, tattooing personal info, is incredibly naive---

I don't like any of these body alterations. Some goth girls are pretty cute but even then they would probably be pretty cute without the ridiculous piercings as well (I remember this one girl that had a pretty nice lip piercing but then she decided to get nose rings, etc... so ugly).

Otherwise, I don't see the appeal at all.

I'm fine with most things that doesn't stretch or punch weird holes through your skin. Stretching and dermal implants look absolutely horribly stupid, and I find it hard to respect anyone that makes a hula-hoop of their earlobe.
Tattoos can be quite cool, but people tend to pick terrible motives. The 'classical' tattoos look like shit, I don't get why anyone would get them - they hold no meaning to people today unless they're near-ancient sailors or something.
Piercings are fine except nose rings, which looks like metallic snot, and the kinds that seem to weigh a pound. That's just impractical.
1000 at least.

Someone evidently has serious difficulties detecting small amounts of dry humour in my previous post.

I still strongly dislike tatoos though.

Everything besides ear piercings seem a little too extreme for me, probably because they are so accepted in society.

Tattoos seem a little excessive to me too. I feel like people are getting tattoos about every little thing on a whim so easily. I can imagine getting one if you join a gang or something (NOT that I encourage that or think it's okay) but getting something like an SC tattoo from playing the game for a year seems a bit silly to me.

Of course this is just my opinion. :D

Honestly, I forgot most of the people on this board are into engineering or computer science. And some people that pursue these fields can't seem to fathom the idea of possibly making a mistake, especially a permanent one on their body. They are so afraid of failure and have such a strong sense if entitlement, they actively avoid situations where they might look bad, or look for situations where they can blame other factors for their lack of success.

Some people can't understand that some people don't care if they make mistakes, and if anything believe its a necessary part of growth.

TLDR; just because you're too chicken shit to get a tattoo doesn't mean people with tattoos are automatically stupid. They just care less about fucking up.

The worst thing would be some teeny-dream-stuff like some cool signs / mottos, because I doubt that things you found so tough and cool will be seen the same way when you are 50 or older. (Example: My cousin tattooed Thor´s hammer on his chest, I really really doubt that he will like it forever)

Oh and by the way, the argument "look my skin looks better with tattoos" is always countered by " how your tattoo looks when you get older".(skin folds)


Most people that are really, really into tattoos don't worry about making a decision they will be in love with forever.

They get tattoos because they appreciate the artform, think it's fun, and want to permanently document a moment or person or state of mind in their minds.

To people that don't understand tattoos, let me put in a way you might understand: Instead of thinking of your body as a sacred canvas or temple which anything less than a masterpiece would ruin; think of your body as a diary or journal that is the culmination of your life. There will be rough patches and mistakes and bad poetry in it, but some people have no problem sharing that with other people.


Still find it lame as f--- in nearly all cases, there seems to be a correlation between stupidity and body "art", because it's always the stupid person I know who goes and gets a some lame piercings and tattoos. And I dont buy the diary body thing, with the "rough patches and mistakes and bad poetry" I don't give a shit if they no problem sharing it, I don't care for it. It's also a very attention whorish thing if you think about it.



Everyone is allowed to have an opinion, but yours is wrong, ignorant and, to the great irony of your post, stupid.


Stupidity is not being able to explain why it is wrong, ignorant and stupid, have a look in the mirror.


Honestly, I forgot most of the people on this board are into engineering or computer science. And some people that pursue these fields can't seem to fathom the idea of possibly making a mistake, especially a permanent one on their body. They are so afraid of failure and have such a strong sense if entitlement, they actively avoid situations where they might look bad, or look for situations where they can blame other factors for their lack of success.

Some people can't understand that some people don't care if they make mistakes, and if anything believe its a necessary part of growth.

TLDR; just because you're too chicken shit to get a tattoo doesn't mean people with tattoos are automatically stupid. They just care less about fucking up.


So you are essentially saying tattoos are in general a mistake, my correlation between stupidity and body art seems to be accurate according to you. I'm not afraid of making mistakes, but I generally avoid them when I can, such as terrible tattoos and a variety of other body art. Now people who do make this mistake in the name of growth, isn't it greater to grow without making the mistake? THINKING BEFORE DOING IT? Avoiding it.

I am really turned off by all kinds of body disfigurement tricks. I just don't get them at all, all of it looks straight up nasty especially on girls. And those faddish earplugs are just the worst lol. Tattoos I kinda like but over 90% of them are ugly or lame. Those few tattoos I see that are masterfully crafted and make some sense I find amazing and it gets me jealous
