Silver lining. It's your wrist, not above your left/right breast and you're a tad heavy set.
Cannot. Understand. That. Trend. Our admin assistant has one, she's frumpy, has horrible disposition and pushing 175, the tit-tat doesn't help the situation. |
| Tattoos are for the red, white, and blue. That's redneck, white trash, and blue collar. |
| There's something very sheepish about the responses in this thread. |
| Be who you are, if you want tattoos f**k what the next person may think or how they may stereotype you.thats one of the problems in society nowadays people live for what others may think/like/approve of more so then what the person may like.screw that! |
What the what?! Generalize much, cuckoo-pants? |

Thought of DCUM when I saw this article today:
Apple Watches don't "play nice" with wrist tattoos http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2483384,00.asp So, if you want an Apple watch, you may want to get your tattoo elsewhere or watch the colors. I happen to agree with "Tattoos are for the red, white, and blue. That's redneck, white trash, and blue collar." My DH had a college student in one of his classes who was really embarrassed by the tinkerbell tattoo above her left breast. Showed when wearing a tshirt and she was always trying to cover it. Not a good decision. |
| Those wrist or edge-of-finger tattoos to me always look like ink smudges. |
Agree. In the beginning, tattoos were only for bad ass military or harley riders. Then they got all "teenager" - a way for teens to "express" themselves. and we all know, anything a teenager does is just a fad. I find it silly when an adult gets one, seriously, what makes someone want one? I just don't get it. |
| Most tattoos scream bad judgement to me. |
Did you ever find anything good? |

I run the DC office for a large, multi-national company, so I hire lots of outside counsel, lobbyists, etc.
Earlier this year, I sat through some presentations from various law firms for a new project. One firm came in with four people, including one young woman with a wrist tattoo that I could see peeking out of her buttoned-up shirt and jacket. It spoke volumes to me (tacky, trashy, unprofessional, seemingly uneducated, etc.). Honestly, I just couldn't get beyond it. |
You win the internet today. Seriously that little clause made me nearly spit out my tea, thanks for the laugh! |
And you don't have to get it. That's the great thing. You also don't have to waste an iota of a thought judging it, but if that's how you roll, do you. Just don't be surprised when you discover that there is no "right" to most of these questions, and therefore you aren't always right. Also, tattoos might have been for military (although, let's be real, most military service back in the day were not necessarily "bad ass", my curmudgeon of a grandfather who judges EVERYONE and is downright nasty, even has an anchor from the 30s) or bikers IN THIS COUNTRY. Have a little bit of a world view for god's sake. Also, both of those activities were restricted to just men at one point too, not exactly a time I want to emulate. |
