Definitely.

Tattoos say one thing. That you are too mentally unstable to not act on every stupid whim you get like paying money to brand yourself with your most recent thought.

I'm at the DMV and the ones who look the poorest seems to be directly proportional to how many visible tattoos they have.

What does the OT think about visible tattoos?

not all blacks are racist?

not all muslims are terrorists?


but sorry...externalities exist and the few tend to screw it up for the many. (ie: there are enough trashy tattooed people that have created the stigma)

Don't really have issues as long as they don't extend past the wrists or above the collar bone.

You think people with full arm sleeves just decided to do that on a whim with no thought or planning involved?

Maybe they just say the person likes tattoos?

I fairly judge others with tattoos. Despite my best buddy having 2 sleeves of pretty violent and gory tats.

Two of my sisters are heavily tattooed. One is a doctor, the other a graduate student. Not sure what point you're trying to make. Pointing out things you don't like about people is kind of a weird thing to do, but do whatever you feel you need to do to feel good about yourself and your decision making.

I'm not going to pretend like I am familiar with the resident selection process for medical school but I very clearly remember her covering her tattoos that couldn't be covered by long sleeves a collard shirt. She's not delusional so she conforms to protect her career path. The youngest straight doesn't give a frick.

I think face tattoos should come with mandatory sterilization.




No reason this should have offspring which the taxpayer must then pay for.

This is interesting. It's like you are cool with it as long as they don't place it someplace you arbitrarily decided was unacceptable to you. I don't get it, why do you care? How far are you willing to take it? Would you not help someone who had a tattoo on their wrist or neck? Would you not accept help from someone with a tattoo on their wrist or neck?

How steadfast in your opinion are you? Are you willing to stand by it and openly declare someone with a neck tattoo as beneath you? I bet you're not. I bet you wouldn't dare state your opinion to someones face

The OT is a strange place.

I think you're soft. I also think you might be fat.

People with neck and/or face tattoos are trash.

I mean, your OP is the softest post in this thread, you do realize that, right?
