I feel like face tattoos are judged too harshly at one point in time all tattoos were judged as harshly as face tattoos are now. All of it is arbitrary who cares if someone chose to get a tattoo on their face?
I wish people could do what they want to their bodies without judgment but I don't see that ever happening.
People change throughout their entire lives, and ideas that seemed effin' cool when we were young and pretty, well, maybe they felt less cool as we sobered up and aged. I think most of us can relate to the feeling that once or twice, the younger version of ourselves sure was a goddamned idiot who made some dumbass decisions that made our future life twice as hard as it needed to be.
But yeah, nothing screams cool like a 50+ year old with face tattoos.
Years ago I was asked by a recruiter if I had any tattoos and piercings - I don’t, but told them I wasn’t interested in working for a client who’d let that get in the way of hiring the right people.
so they are also good at risk management, as they're avoiding cannibals
Eh, I'd argue it's actually the exact opposite of good risk management. They've spent a lot of time and money mitigating something that's extremely unlikely to ever pose a problem. They should take a step back and reevaluate that risk matrix, maybe get a second opinion on it too.
Avoiding becoming long pork is as valid reason as any I suppose hah
serious answer
I think a lot of it was for identification of bodies if they are otherwise disfigured in death :3.. as well as other things like superstition, or marking important achievements ^^
According to the Trump administration, the entire population within a specific range of millennials are gang members to the last.
OG Boomers and Silents are gang members, but they're called lodges and esoteric societies, sometimes churches for tax reasons.
Remember that the primary efforts of Black Panthers and Hezbollah are community support (often cooperating with NGOs like Red Cross and Doctors Without Borders), we can expect that other terrorist organizations are similarly extremist.
Yeah, I was thinking the same. It's basically a visible representation of somebody's thought process. It may indicate something important to them, something they're passionate about, or just a point decision without due consideration for consequences.
People get tattoos that are extremely artistic and represent a significant investment in both time and money. Many get tattoos about something they have a passion for. Some to honor deceased loved ones. Some to represent their culture.
Others get a facial tat with prison symbols or to make themselves look like a lizard/devil, which I can only describe as a "look-at-me" tattoo. That may not be the type of personality you want working for you or even to hang out with.
Others it's a "hey we were drinking and just got this cool new tattoo gun" or "I wanted ink but didn't bother to research local artists or pay for someone that does good work or can spell" ...
All I think is "oh, that person is either a tattoo artist (and friends with a bunch of them too), or good friends with one". But thats just based off of my own experience, the people I know that are heavily inked are all tattoo artists or married to one.
This entire thread just solidifies why 'murica is in the position it is with a dictator at the helm running the country full speed into a massive ship destroying iceberg made of money.
