“Do you think my tattoo is cool?” No, I don’t. There are no cool tattoos. “Check out my sleeve!” Oh god ew.

Tattoos themselves are stupid. Doubly so if it’s some media IP. “I put Batman on my body!” “Look at this image of Goku on my calf!” I can’t think of many things I’d want to do less than that.

There are a few narrow exceptions. Chances are yours isn’t one of them.

If you personally like tattoos, fine. I’m not saying nobody should get tattoos because I don’t like them. I’m stating my opinion that tattoos are stupid, and I am stating it here because it is probably not a popular opinion.

    Finding a good artist is so difficult. I have a bunch of tattoos in like 4 different intentional styles. So even though I have a handful of artists I trust, it’s even hard to pick out of them which style to go with. Most artists can tattoo anything, but you can tell when it’s someone preferred style of art.

      For sure! I’m also particular about their line quality. That’s the struggle, a ton of amazing artists but for some reason it’s hard to find artists who have great inking quality.
