    I'd still smash

    tats should have meaning to u. there is not one tat on my body that i wish i didnt get. they all have meaning to me. if they mean something then u are less likely to regret them later imo.

    All mine had meaning to em when I got em, too. But as you age and progress as a person things change. Your priorities is different. ? I thought was so important at 19 are ? ridiculous at 33.

    Those red dice representing a street number and a stack of dollar bills was a fire tatt as a 19-20 year old.

    It still look cool aesthetically but when you got a regular 9-5 jake job, mortgage, planning a wedding next summer, taking 6 and 7 year old girls to tennis lessons, gettin chatted up by white mothers passing out snacks to the kids while I’m out there in a medium white T and my arms covered in ? tattoos... I be like damn lol

    Thats why I never got a tat. There's very, very, very few things that I'd want on my body for the rest of my life.

    This is ? . Ive gotten 3 promotions in the last 4 years. Lacking professionalism and work ethic affects you more than anything other that racism. ? like making excuses for being failures too much.

    I have no tattoos at the moment but I had skin graft surgery on my right arm from the elbow to the shoulder after getting burned in a car accident this past August.

    Actually in the process of researching ideas now so that i can get a half sleeve to cover up the graft once it’s fully healed in a year.

    Got my first at like 18... Next at about 21... Another at around 30... And another at like 31 or 32... All of those were just kinda spur of the moment joints but luckily will stand true to me and my thought processes till the end of time... Only thing I didn't like back then was that they were all kinda scattered and I felt like they didn't have enough cohesion...

    I wanted my ? to be more mural-esque so about 4 or 5 years ago I got the right half my chest done and my right arm sleeved. I took no less than 6 month thinkin and plannin that ? out. Drawin rough sketches for the artist, pickin and printin out font and everything. I won't even wear a print t-shirt that don't connect wit me deep enough so I'll be damned if I was gon get some ink that would end up meaningless. So I got ? that represents my wife, kids, and my love for makin music...

    I think I'm gon do like 1 or 2 more. I left a little space to extend my sleeve and cover my wrist and then maybe, if I can figure out what to put, I'll get the inside of my upper right arm done just to make the sleeve complete.

    If ain’t your art tho, it’s someone else’s art that just happens to be on your body. You can’t even really claim it cause you didn’t create it.

    A bunch of pure ? ? I wish I never got. Affiliations and names of dead “homies” some who faces I could barely remember. The large B on my forearm I can explain with “my name is Brandon” at least

    Thank ? I had the good sense to not to get tatted on my face and neck.

    ? dont use my name as a cover for your bad decisions lol

    This is why as of now I only have 2 tats. I sit on the idea for years before I do it. Some tats I refer to as "t shirt tats" meaning that ? looks better on a shirt than actually tat'd on you forever.

    Right sleeve and chest is covered. Both legs have work. Back has work. Ribs are done. Left arm in progress. Even some stuff on the fingers

    How old are you?

    And do you think you might regret it when you get older?

    Soon to be 23...and probably not. I'm securely in my field (software engineering) and found myself a long time ago.

    Claiming your tattoos as “art” is the most uppity ? you could say about them. Other than that, you are correct.

    Mine look cool but At this point in my life I just wish I stayed clean

    Interesting perspective. I don't claim my ? as art per say but How is it not art?

    Tats are art...the process involves drawing and artistic talent doesn't it?

    Nah, it's easily the least uppity ? bruh.

    I'd genuinely like to know how it isnt.
