One in five Americans aged 18 or older has a tattoo, according to a Harris poll. This figure is up substantially from the 14 percent with a tattoo in 2008.

31. NOT 1 TAT on my body at all. Back in 2004 when i was body building I almost got 1 i mean it was picked out appointment set but i was like NAAAA, my body is good without it.

i wont never get that !! on my skin

:cool-smiley-009:

dont have any i jus turned 25 , i think they look good on some women tho

I'm 25 just got one tat but it's a rip tat for someone

same[pic]

25 everyone In my immediate fam has at least one cept me. I mean there was a time where I wanted some but I'm glad I didn't go through with it. No hate on tats I'm just saying

I got a couple I dont understand why some people get there entire body tatted like lil wayne

Im 22 and Everybody in my family has at least one tat......Except for me and my dad......But Im getting a Rip tat in honour of my Grand mother that recently passed away....All my cousins and my sister have a Rip tat for her....Im the only one who hasnt gotten one yet

26 with sleeve and chest.....and I dont give a mother!!


nah but id never get anything that could be visible if I was wearing long sleeves

22 and I love tattoos. Got about 14 all on my arms and chest. But would never be stupid enough to get them in a spot where they couldnt be covered somehow.

and 3 in five of those with tattoos have the exacted same thing..

i mean if you get a tat get something original

!! aint new WWI and WWII vets are tatted

same here, 'cept I'm 26, and my mom doesn't have one.

in my opinion, tats lost all meaning these days.

they used to be a rebellious type of thing. now for our generation its like a rite of passage almost, it's about conformity.

RIP and dedication tats are the exception obviously.

im not talkin about u in particular cuz i dont know your family. but i know plenty of people who get rip tats cuz of grandparents and !! knowing damn well their grandparent or whoever would never want them getting a tattoo lol. im 26 and ive never had a desire to get a tattoo. i dont see the appeal and id rather spend hundreds of dollars on something i can actually use or enjoy.

id like to see some statistics on the relation to people with tattoos and their social networking usage. at my job only me and 1 other guy dont have tattoos, and we're also the only ones without a facebook or twitter. not sure if theres a correlation or if its just coincidence. [pic]

I have business tats.. word to Kevin Durant

full half sleeves..

just turned 28 last week. I'm squeaky clean : )
