I actually don't like tattoos. :fear:
The long-term thing scares me because I feel differently about stuff as the years go by. To be stuck with something I might later think that only a cunt would have written on them is worrying. :huh:
That electronic thing is genius.
Useful for cheating at exams.

Obviously I'm speaking from the perspective of the language where the name comes from. Which I would argue has priority.

Now I know Benchez will have a field day with this one, but as far as the long term effects go I have seen some alreadywith a Tat I have. A little known fact about Detale is that I have a Tattoo that says "Balls" down the back of my right forearm. When I was young here in Brooklyn it was my nickname "Seanie Balls" Yes my real name is Sean, now it was cool because I was a ( not bragging) kid that alot of people wouldn't fight I even beat up a cop at one point.( I regret most of these things now I am 32). So now when I am walking on the street with my 3 year old in typical Brooklyn fashion people yell my old nick to say hello they go something like Yo Balls! and I look at them and of course sday hi but am a bit embarrassed when Im walking with my kid, So surely some tattoos should be thought out better and people that I don't know or just meet ask what it says on my arm I have to tell them Oh it says Balls and explain the whole thing so I don't look like as moron
