It won't necessarily make it better, but it helps shift focus so one doesn't brood....

I hate tatoos.

I can't wait to get my next one. Got a apparently great recommendation to a local place few foreigners know about, going to be investigating their work this week.....

Thank you, I needed that! 

What tatoos do you have?  I have a sun, moon, and star tatoo, it is a copy of a painting I got on a visit to Jamaica.

You're very welcome.
I only hve one atm, it's a design of bats that I did, flying in front of the moon. It also needs touching up atm, LOL, so there's lots of inking needing to be done.
Your tat sounds so interesting! I bet you nobody else has one like it, eh? Aren't those just the best kind?

Why on earth would you want a Nazi symbol!  They represent the ultimate in hate and discrimination.  Think of all those that died at their hands.  Innocent men, women, and children made to suffer and die.  Why would you want to have that on your body the rest of your life?

...maybe she's an Aryan?  Who knows?

It MAY be a bad symbol (and, as most people feel, I don't support such symbols by any means), but if she REALLY wants to go out and get it, well then, that's her decision to make. *shrugs*

I just hope she does her research into the matter before she goes out and gets it...

You can never undo a tattoo, and I know in the States, watch out if you have one of those, you suddenly become a "figure of interest" with various groups and companies and porganisations without you knowing it. And they'll decide that that tat makes you a bad person,  wether you are or not.
Most people want those to say they're a bad-@ss, when it just says they're not.

Although, I will never get another.  I am just glad the one I got is something I really wanted.  They have instituted a new policy where I work that no tattoos can be seen.  I know one guy in the ER that has a full arm tat.  Now he has to wear long sleeves all the time so no one can see it.  Another, girl has one on her neck and she has to always wear a turtleneck at work.  I feel sorry for them because I know they have to be sooo hot, especially days like today it is 96 here.

I don't have any & don't want any...

I HAVE BARB WIRE TATOO ON MY RIGHT ARM, A ROSE WITH THORNS ON MY UPPER BACK SHOULDER.

I went to check out the reccomended place yesterday, and walked out very much less than impressed with their work. I'll just keep looking for that artist who does the work I want. He's somewhere here, I just have to find him.

I recently learned that red ink is a bad color to get in a tattoo due to the mercury (or something like that) in it, and 1/3 of the population have problems due to it.

Is that really so?

With more innocents getting killed by the UN (Ultimate Nonsense) and USA (Ultimate Stupid A$$holes) forces everyday I would love to get a tattoo that would piss every fellow of the modern "peaceful" world today. I would have it on my chest and I'd move without a shirt.
Hitler would always be my hero for pissing off the USA and the European countries as long as he could.

If he is your hero, you are far more trouboled than we realised.
There are far more constructive and mature ways to achieve the same result.

Only if you go to a bad tat parlour. If your tattoo artist is a good one, you will ahve no problem. My original tattoo has red in it, and I have never had a problem, 19 years later.
