That zerg tattoo. I've always wanted a tattoo but I can never choose. I have a twin brother and we are thinking about getting matching tattoos but we don't know what to get. Any ideas?

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.



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.




LOL, you got it all wrong dude. A tattoo is not a mistake. Your just being an descriminating bitch.


Dude, I have all the respect in the world for good and bad tattoos. But not all tattoos are winners. And some tattoos might reflect the wearer's former state of mind/values, and not reflect the person's current personality. That's what I mean by 'mistake'.

I'm one of those guys that doesn't equate 'mistake' with 'bad' or 'stupid'. I didn't mean to imply that making mistake has a negative connotation, and was arguing the opposite.I think making mistakes is a healthy thing and leads to a more skills, more competence, a better life and coincidentally, better tattoos.

I think you should re-read his post, he isn't calling it a mistake per definition, just that some people might regret some (ugly) tattoo's later in life.
And please mind your manners, no need for namecalling I think^^

but getting something like an SC tattoo from playing the game for a year seems a bit silly to me.

A year? Starcraft was released in 1998 (march 31, remember the anniversary?:D ) so it's been a part (sometimes small, sometimes large) in people's lives.
- And for me personally, next the game being part for over half of my life, the zerg race stands for 'purity of mind', this is one tattoo in a (currently) trifecta of tattoos spanning events in my life, so I really like that explanation behind the tattoo, and those are my two reasons for having it Maybe silly, but important to me^^

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.

Joking aside, piercings and tattoo's have been in mankind's culture since the beginning of written accounts.

I don't like any of those. I don't find it cool or good looking. I find it a bit.. unclassy, to be rude.

When I see a tattoo or a piercing I think "huh, that will be awkward in a few years, won't it?"

Not that I care for or pity those who like their tattoos, I just can't avoid thinking it.

Well then clearly you need to get a tattoo that says "No Pienso" on your forehead.

I've seen good looking tattoos but I've seen bad ones.

My girlfriend has 2 tattoos she made in her teens, she regrets them now,
The husband of her sister (who is admittedly quite dumb) made a tattoo for his deceased mother... but with a grammatical mistake in it. I think nobody told him but it's a running joke ><

Scarification is too much wtf and will probably look horrible once healed. Derm implants looks stupid. Piercings are okay as long as you don't hang 1pound of steel on your face... it becomes stupid at that point.
Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

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.




LOL, you got it all wrong dude. A tattoo is not a mistake. Your just being an descriminating bitch.

...he's not arguing that tattoos are inherently a mistake, he's arguing that people who get tattoo's have different ideas as to what constitutes a mistake in the first place.


Thank you for being able to explain what I'm saying better than I can.

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.


Whats why you tattoo something that is important to you. Like someone mentioned, you preserve a state of mind or time onto your body. If I was a progamer right now, I wouldn't have any trouble etching a protoss tattoo on my shoulder. Sure, people may think it looks goofy, but I don't care about those people. I'm a nerd, and I'm proud of it. and most likely I'll only be showing the tattoo to people who are like minded. I wont stop being a nerd in 20 years, and if I do, it will still have been a huge part of my life. So it doesn't matter. (not to mention a 100% who haven't played starcraft wont know what the protoss tattoo is, and will think its cool because it actually looks cool, and not for what it represent).

That said, I wouldn't get one on my forehead, no. You will still be interacting with people every day, and I don't want the first thought people have of me to be "what an idiot". Having tattoos that can't be covered up isn't the smartest thing to do imo.

I would never do any of those things to myself. I cringe whenever I think about tattoos or piercings and I'm not squeamish at all.

Do you cringe at looks of it, or the idea that it would hurt getting one?

I think tattoos are fine if they are not obnoxiously gross, gang related or overdone (ie too many). I know some people that have tattoos and wear certain things or take their shirt off just to show it off, and I think they are idiots.

Piercings are for girls, and outside of the ear it can get to be a little too much. Girls with a little eyebrow or belly button piercing looks ok. I dont really like when parents get their babies/toddlers ears pierced. Personally Im waiting till my daughter is old enough to decide if she wants them or not.

Everything else... ew.

Also: I really dislike block of text tattoos. They're not aesthetically pleasing nor are they ever deep, no matter how much you love a long-winded quote from a Chuck Palahniuk book. Utilize your skin more effectively please.

Should be rules against this, and honestly I think there are in Norway, as I've never seen it happen here before. But I have seen children at a waaay too young age get pierced. Honestly, if you're still in kindergarten, the chances of getting an infection are astronomical. Don't be a retard parent, and wait until the children are smart enough to understand the word "consequence".

This kind of thing is not for me. If I have any holes, scars, permanent marks or other signs of mutilation on myself, the last explanation I want for them is "I did it myself" or "I paid someone to do this to me". I can store all my important memories and approximations of my favourite sayings in my brain. It's a far more sophisticated organ than my skin with much more storage capacity. As for mnemonic devices that are reflections of my personality, they can be collected around me, rather than on me. Those are my thoughts. Nothing against those of you who have "body art" or whatever the fuck you call it.
