The hype has been around for thousands of years. I don't think its going anywhere anytime soon.
- Yeah, but those thousands of years mostly related to Uganda. Hypes were different there.********
- well that wasn't great english, but you get the picture.********
- Where did you get that information from?Ruffian
- From social anthropology class, I swear.********
- j/k. sort of. tattoes were widespread all over the equatorial world. Mostly it related to battles and achieving warrior status.********
- achieving manhood status in many Poli, African an NZ tribes. It was like a feat-count because they didn't write...********
- Heh, as I recall tattoos have been around in Eurasia since the stone age. Don't know about Uganda :)Ruffian
- ... down the tribes' history on paper. Like totems. It makes that way. It doesn't make sense now. my op anyway.********
- yes in eurasia too - but mostly chieftains and high-military could "wear" them.********
- Thing is tattoos were used to record history. People now wear them like t-shirts. Tattoos as visuals records of personal..********
- .. experiences cannot last too long on extremely individualistic societies such as we have now in the West.********
- Look: it's a completely different experience having your chieftain or posh-king going around with the whole tribes'...********
- ...history on his back. that gave him power and authority. He was the king! But what do we care about Amy Whinehouse...********
- Jeesh, I see your point :) All the tats I have have a meaning that wont fade and are not something to flash around.Ruffian
- ...having "Blake" carved on her boobs? It's not like it matters to anyone or makes any diff. Bad example, probably.********
- O but meanings fade, ruff... meanings fade. And that's why people painfully remove tattoos.********
- anyway, these ****ing notes were not made for conversation.********
- Good habit: writing books or love letters. you keep em for ages, but one day you burn the lot. Songs of experience.********
- Yeah, but those thousands of years mostly related to Uganda. Hypes were different there.
