The Great Tattoo Debate

Hiragana and Katakana are the phonetic Japanese alphabets. Kanji is the full pictographic alphabet.

I've often contemplated it, but I just can't think of anything that I think would still look good when I'm 80 and sagging.

Although, if they get the safety on the UV reactive inks down, I'm so getting one out of that stuff.

UV Tattoos, sounds tempting, thing is I think I'm alergic to UV ink.
Days after getting a UV stamp at a gig on my hand it dries up and cracks and bleeds like I've been punching a wall.
Used to think it was a winter thing combined with hand washing alot at work, but it even happened in the summer, only ever the stamped hand so bit suspect.

Where I work and live tattoos are very popular and very personal. One of my neighbors has images based on the Revelations. An employee at work has a lot of satanic tattoos including one on his head (that had to hurt). These guys are blue collard workers but they are both hard workers.

I have a coworker that started out as a blue collard worker but has gone up the ladder and is now working with engineers and is doing a lot of basic engineering tasks. He has tattoo sleeves down to his wrists. He too is a good worker and is trusted among the engineers.

There is also another site that has several engineers with tattoos including women. Of course when the women want to compare tattoos they tend to go into the bathrooms so they don't strip in front of the guys.

Many people have tattoos and the reasons for them are varied and personal. Just because a person has a tattoo it doesn't mean that the person is a bad person. The person under the ink is more important then the ink they wear.

Hiragana and Katakana are the phonetic Japanese alphabets. Kanji is the full pictographic alphabet.

And to be more further picky, Hiragana is for Japanese words, Katakana is for words with foreign origin (for instance, "Smith" becomes "Sumisu") and Kanji represents most words.

I really like tattoos, it just so happens that I am not willing to spend the time and money to have a really good o
one made.
