Mike Weiss has at least 70 tattoos, stretching from his shoulders to his ankles. Since getting his first in 2011, he has spent roughly $13,000 on them.

13k? Stupid fuck. I have no respect for dumbasses that do this shit.

Just like snake rattles and skunk scent, tattoos are nature's way of saying "Do not touch".

Good word!

[ - ] Bonanza 1 point 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 13:28:05 ago (+2/-1)

Interesting. Didn't know there was a scientific word for it. Explains a lot.

[ - ] Fascinus 3 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 13:30:34 ago (+3/-0)

Family and I refer to the freaks as poison dart frogs.

[ - ] Bonanza 2 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 15:48:20 ago (+2/-0)

That's a good comparison.

[ - ] WNwoman 3 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 13:38:58 ago (+3/-0)

Tattoos and rainbow color hair. Piercings too.

[ - ] Bonanza 1 point 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 15:49:35 ago (+1/-0)

Yep. All are dead giveaways.

[ - ] PostWallHelena 2 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 18:41:25 ago (+2/-0)

I always thought that something like this was the motivation behind some people’s tattoos. Alot of warrior cultures use tattoos and other disturbing body mods. Many tattoos are meant to be threatening.

Other people are just trying to stand out in some way as special. But either way, I think it is a sign of a personality disorder like narcissism or histrionic PD. At least for people with alot of tatts. I always assume these tatted up freaks have personality disorders .

Everyone here needs to send me nude selfies so we can. Weed out the problems. You go first so you can set a good example

Damn, it used to be dick pics, now you want the whole body? I mean, I’ve got a dick, not sure on the whole body. It may or may not be there.

Tattoos go against my personal beliefs. "No identifying marks or scars."

[ - ] Jimmycrackerson 4 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 15:00:13 ago (+4/-0)

Same. I've always been intrigued by the concept of a "gray man".

The term “Gray Man” refers to an average, forgettable individual who blends in with their surroundings, avoiding attention or standing out in a crowd. This concept is often applied in various contexts, including:

Inconspicuous behavior: Dressing and acting in a way that makes one appear ordinary and unremarkable, to avoid drawing attention from strangers or authorities.
Social engineering: A social engineer who practices being a “Gray Man” moves undetected among people, without triggering any alarms or suspicion.
Everyday carry: The idea of blending in with the environment, so as not to raise suspicion, is a key aspect of the Gray Man theory.
Key characteristics:
Average height and weight
No noticeable physical features that draw attention
Passive, unassuming demeanor
Ability to blend in with the local population, adopting their mannerisms, speech patterns, and behavior
Avoidance of anything that might make one stand out, such as distinctive clothing or accessories

Turnabout's fair play.

[ - ] RMGoetbbels 2 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 16:45:45 ago (+2/-0)

This guy wants to kill people and get away with it.

FIST BUMP*

[ - ] Merlynn 2 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 17:34:19 ago (+2/-0)

It only stands to reason if you want to commit a crime you would want to get away with it. Of course,there's also something to be said for keeping your wanted level and just slaughtering all comers. GTA is a fun game.

I know a young guy, 18-19 or so, says that his tattoos are an “investment”
Fucking retarded loser.

I see you have met my brother

[ - ] TheOriginal1Icemonkey 0 points 10 monthsAug 17, 2024 00:24:06 ago (+0/-0)

Sadly, there is more than one of these.

[ - ] DitchPig 0 points 10 monthsAug 17, 2024 08:41:09 ago (+0/-0)

Lol, no surprise your brother is a retard, "ragnar".

[ - ] Ragnar -1 points 10 monthsAug 17, 2024 19:25:04 ago (+0/-1)

Even he’s not as retarded as you, bush cuck, he didn’t marry a yellow banana like you did

[ - ] WNwoman 4 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 12:23:24 ago (+4/-0)

It’s an external manifestation of internal issues.

[ - ] RobertJHarsh [op] 4 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 13:24:17 ago (+4/-0)

Especially women. Women with a lot of tats sadly are sexual abuse victims. The other type of sexual abuse women victim are those with a child like voice (think how AOC sounds).

I spent $50 on a tattoo when I was 20. I spent $700 getting it removed when I was 42. Worth every penny.

[ - ] NuckFiggers 4 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 12:21:00 ago (+4/-0)

Women that have tattoos are sluts

Men that have tattoos like to suck cocks

Both are fucking morons.

[ - ] jerkofalltrades 0 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 13:37:43 ago (+0/-0)

Tats are cosmetics. More elaborate than putting on eyeliner but less so then getting implants. I am sure they improve social capital (for morons) in some way even if it's just confidence related.

Still gay though.

[ - ] NuckFiggers 4 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 13:47:18 ago (+4/-0)

Yes- they are just a way to get attention; "Look at me! Look at me!" which is a feminine need.

[ - ] PostWallHelena 2 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 23:37:47 ago (+2/-0)

Throughout nature are examples of males using ostentatious displays. Its not feminine.

[ - ] NuckFiggers 1 point 10 monthsAug 17, 2024 00:55:06 ago (+1/-0)

There's a difference between being ostentatious, "flexing" and being a sissy looking for attention. Being ostentatious is driving a car out of your price range because you're compensating. Tattoos take compensation to a whole other level. You might as well wear a thong and panties. I put 'males' obsessed with tattoos in the same category as those closet homos that sculpt their eyebrows and hide the truth behind the thousands of dollars they use to try to impress women.

Tattoos may increase blood cancer risk by 21%

The only good part is you can literally see the red flag staring you in the face with a Tat on a chick. Not the kind of women you want meet your Mom

Well said!! EVERY wamen I've met with tramp stamps are whores. They have zero respect for themselves or anyone around them

ewhore thinks the tattoos made her. In reality she would do better without them.

"Nearly one-third of American adults have at least one [tattoo], according to a survey by Pew Research."

...

"Sixty-nine percent of adult Americans say they have gotten a tattoo to memorialize something or someone, according to the Pew survey."

I presume that means 69% of tattooed adults, but shit journalism is shit.

All journalism is shit.

Lonni Pike, 60, is a TikTok gamer and influencer in Temecula, Calif., with one arm tattooed in a colorful sleeve. “Every woman my age looks at me like I’m a freak,” she said.

Because you ARE.

Tattoos are mental scars, imprinted on your body.

[ - ] TheNoticing 2 points 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 10:11:47 ago (+2/-0)

That sounds cheap to me.

[ - ] Sleazy 1 point 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 21:13:52 ago (+1/-0)

the money is irrelevant, its all fake and gay anyways, but the ink in the skin is just stupid to me

[ - ] RobertJHarsh [op] 1 point 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 21:44:43 ago (+1/-0)

It is. What really annoys me the most is seeing cops with tats. Cops are supposed to be held to a higher standard over the citizenry and seeing some crackbadge jackboot with a sleeve tat does not send that message.

[ - ] Sleazy 1 point 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 22:06:32 ago (+1/-0)

but it is a tell more to the truth that the cops are just the biggest street gang going

“I wanted to commemorate my journey.”, Tattoos can also be visible statements about identity. To pay tribute to his transition, he decided to tattoo over each of his scars as a way to keep them from disappearing., “I have 1.1 million followers on TikTok,” said Ms. Pike,

Throughout my years on this planet and knowing hundreds of people who got tattoos, they all boil down to one thing, "look at me, this defines me and please listen to me explain it".

Tattoos are for the weak minded who seek attention or are mentally ill who need to declare something about themselves so they don't feel so empty or insignificant.

I see it, I see it everyday. Pathetic fucking "people".

[ - ] __47__ 1 point 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 13:41:17 ago (+1/-0)

I thought about tattoos when I was younger but the idea of something permanently on me just pushed me away. Had a buddy that had dragon ball and video game tattoo. Just pathetic.

[ - ] Leveraction 1 point 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 13:27:48 ago (+1/-0)

Agreed!! Low IQ tard sheep followers. They are the poster ppl for trailer trash. All of them look dirty, filthy, unkept gutter garbage. My respect goes down 20 points whever i see dumbfucks with their tramp stamps.

Tattoos increase the odds of getting cancer by an average of 21%.

[ - ] jerkofalltrades 1 point 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 13:57:10 ago (+1/-0)

Is that because of carcinogenic ink or is some funky inflammatory response? I remember that tattoos basically present a pertual target for some component of your immune system.

[ - ] Sector2 1 point 10 monthsAug 16, 2024 14:01:12 ago (+1/-0)

I believe it's a combination, but haven't researched in depth.

I once knew a talented artist that designed his own tattoos. He went on a tattoo frenzy in his early twenties; he tattooed himself. Everything he could reach with his right hand looked ‘good’. Everything he had to draw with his off hand looked like shit. It was his greatest regret in his 40’s, that he didn’t pay for a pro to do the parts he couldn’t reach with his drawing hand.

[ - ] TheOriginal1Icemonkey 1 point 10 monthsAug 17, 2024 00:26:27 ago (+1/-0)

Ah gawd, I knew a loser like that. Thought he was a tattoo artist. All of his shit was fucked up. He even tattooed his 15 year old son. I hope he dies in a grease fire.

Totally agree but I was fucking stupid at 19. I foolishly got a conference champion tattoo in college when we won the conference outdoor meet. It’s smallish and non visible most of the time on my back. It’s probably depositing ink straight into my spinal cord lol. Might get it removed one day.
