    I have zero tattoos. I wanted a yin yang symbol in the nineties because I was 14 and that was deep.

    I never got around to it, and somehow lost interest in it when all the gym bros got tribal tattoo biceps. Then it got cool via millennial hipsters, but by then I was one big meh.

    I don’t think it’s necessarily = unintelligent. It’s just so ubiquitous now, that it’s kinda boring in itself, IMO.

    Anyone here also not inked?

    • no ink here.utopian
    • no tattoos = the new having tattoos ??

      I dunno. I'm no expert. I haven't got any.

    • No tats, but I do have two tattoo machines in my studio. Go figure. I'm constantly ink-stained, or a bit of paint here or there.garbage
    • But commitment? Miss me with that.garbage
    • You mean commitment to not getting tattoos? Not especially. Just not that interested.jagara
    • no ink and my mrs runs a tattoo studiokingsteven
    • No tats on my bod, mum had my dad's name on her arm lazered off when she divorced and her pain description put me off ever having one, ta mumGardener
    • @jagara Re: commitment: I know myself. I'd get inked, and change my mind in two days. I know myself well enough to know I'm a man of extremes..garbage
    • ..and not one to be trusted. The only tattoo I would consider at this moment is a full arm blackout, Venetian blind shadow, wrist to bicep.garbage
    • Nope but not against them if done artistically and as a pattern of some sort, unfortunately 99.9999999% are shitty decals or worse_niko
    • Wonderful, Kingsteven!
      No tats here. Personally dislike them, but have helped design a few for others over my decades.

    • I think at this stage in many cases they're used by Basics to give the impression they're not entirely dull - honest, guv! - but that's just my conceit.Nairn
    • ^ Agreed. I have actual tattoo blindness. I could not tell you what my closest friends have on their bodies because I simply don't notice them.garbage
    • But douchebags? Theirs I notice. "Did you see what that moron had scrawled on his forearm, lol"garbage
    • That and I'll pick up on an 88 real quick.garbage
    • don't listen to anyone. go get that yin yang you've always wanted.pango
    • I actually agree with pangz. Get the most hilariously tiny YY ever.garbage
