Do people with tatoos have identity?:
Archive through August 04, 2003
Ark | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 11:01 am     I know several people with tatoos. Of the women that I know, their tatoos were a well thought out decision. Of the men that I know, they got them when they were drunk. |
Lurknomore | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 11:03 am     I'm not sure about Erika, but I think the point of the feature on it was they are running out of storylines in the house and needed to fill some time so they ran with it. |
Scorpiomoon | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 11:12 am     I agree Lurk. |

1kid4us | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 01:18 pm     OK, Lurker here..... But I just have to say. I'm married,kids,mortage, etc..... I have 4 tattoos, but you would never know because there are easily coverd by shirts and jeans. My tattoos were done to remind me of key things that happened in my life.. My mother took me to get my first when i was 18. It was a butterfly to remind me of the day my dad was buried. IT was a Nasty & rainy day and all of a sudden this huge butterfly fluttered in and landed on the coffin and sat there among the flowers for about 30 minutes. My other tatts are a moon, flower,& peace sign. those last 3 are elements of something in my life that i never want to forget. I don't use them to identify myself, because unless you asked me if i had one, you would never know. lots of my friends choose to not ink their bodies up, and they have enough of their own identy & personality to knock a horse outta of it's shoes. it's all just an individual choice and also based on pain threshold! LOL |
Scribe | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 01:31 pm     Hmm, I've always had an identity but I haven't always had a tatoo. |
Seamonkey | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 01:36 pm     I like Jee's tattoo. |
Twiggyish | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 01:42 pm     Agreeing.. This could have been a contrived ploy. As you all remember, last year the issue of good vs. evil was also raised. So this year..it's possible a question was asked regarding evil people with tatoos..or something to that effect. Erika was responding to that type of question and the whole scenario was born. To answer the question.. it doesn't matter to me either way if a person has one. |
Fuzzyb | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 04:16 pm     I have tatoos- so therefore I am secure and have a personality. ;) |
Redhalo | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 04:17 pm     I got a tatoo because of who I am. I already had an identity, just wanted to dress up the merchandise a little. I am not better or worse then anyone else, or more angelic or EVIL then the next guy. Maybe a little off the wall, but that came prior the the tat. |
Miss_Wings | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 10:04 pm     Just curious . . .what does Justin's tattoo say? I never seem to get a close enough look. |
Fuzzyb | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 10:12 pm     Justin has a tattoo of the United States with something in the middle |
Kellirippa | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 10:15 pm     If you have a secret tatoo, does that mean you have a secret identity? (well, back to the bat cave for me) |
Miss_Wings | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 10:28 pm     Yep, looks like a big star in the middle, but I thought it says something under it too. |
Catfat | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 10:52 pm     It bears repeating that the tattoo above Dana's butt-crack looks like a patch of scraggly black hair. Eeewww. |
Miss_Wings | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 11:21 pm     yuck  |
Kellirippa | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 11:37 pm     ...sounds like that might not be a tatoo Cat. |
Catfat | Sunday, August 03, 2003 - 11:49 pm     LOL, Kellirippa |
Frannie | Monday, August 04, 2003 - 04:37 am     Trust Robert to be the one to state that those with tattoos have identity - he probably WOULD need a patch of ink to show people who he is. If I had a tattoo - his and the rest of those saddo's comments would be enough to make me leg it to the nearest laser surgery. |
Beruthiel | Monday, August 04, 2003 - 05:50 am     I guess I have to thank Robert for diagnosing why, at the brink of old age, I've floundered all my life without an identity. All I needed was someone to painfully paint me with pricking points, and my personality would have been peachy! Someone pinch me instead, I'm having a nightmare  |
Spwisc | Monday, August 04, 2003 - 06:05 am     Interesting site Bo.. However Hollywood doesn't tell me how to think. I didn't take Roberts comments and those of the others about identity and tatoos as being negative toward people that don't have tatoos. They were just saying why that have them, not that everyone in the world should have one! LOL My dad has one from the Korean War, all my uncles have them from being in the service, my niece has 3 (one of them like Dana's) and my sisters want to all 3 of us to get a tatoo of angel wings signifying our brothers death. So to each his own. |
Carlie | Monday, August 04, 2003 - 06:32 am     I have two tatoos as well.. one to signify my joining of the Air force (roses), and another one to celebrate my divorce from my ex hubby (a band of sunflowers). |
Kaili | Monday, August 04, 2003 - 06:42 am     I have one on my ankle- it's easy to cover if need be. My best friend and I went and got matching tattoos done the last day I was living in Arizona. So basically we did it to have sort of a reminder- when I look at it I think about my friend, and of being 20 and having fun. No big deal. I don't know if I will get another or not. |
Puzzled | Monday, August 04, 2003 - 07:29 am     If scars count, then I have a lot of personality.  |
Squaredsc | Monday, August 04, 2003 - 08:01 am     well i had an identity before i got my tatoo and i still have my identity. now im trying to work up the courage and $$ to get another one. |
