But pretty too...

Congrats!

You look pretty, and happy!

And that is a good thing!

It really didn't hurt, especially since I'm on percs for my pinched neck nerve. lol

I am happy, happy, happy.

And that is a good thing!

7. Never do something permanent to your body is my motto

But , hey , if you think it looks nice , ok. In my opinion it looks ugly.

8. Nice way to rain on someone's parade...

She likes it. If you don't, why say anything at all?

[UndertheOcean]

9. You should say what you think for the other person's benefit

If Micheal Jackson's handlers didn't agree about everything he did ... he might have been in a better shape towards the end of his life.

Some negative feedback is necessary , and it does no harm because it can be easily ignored

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

10. Bull.

The OP got a tattoo, which is a harmless form of adornment and is a matter of personal taste. More importantly, you are not doing anything to "help" her (save her from the "ugliness" of tattoos?) because SHE ALREADY GOT IT. You are not benefiting her by carping about how you think tattoos are ugly; but you might be making her feel bad for no good reason. Like Mom always said -- if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all -- especially where someone's personal appearance is concerned.

[UndertheOcean]

11. I respect your opinion. n/t

[redqueen]

13. Bullshit.

Handlers are paid, so they can do that stuff and not be total assholes.

Best friends can be asked and will do it and not be total assholes.

Nobody asked you, nobody's paying you. So...

[UndertheOcean]

14. This is a public board ? isn't it .

[redqueen]

16. Yup. So yes, you're free to be a total asshole as much as you like.

Have at it.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

18. It is.

But we kind of hope people will exercise a little restraint and tact. The OP is happy and proud of her tattoo, but you told her you thought it was ugly. You're entitled to your opinion, but saying stuff like that is just mean, and it would greatly contribute to the overall civility of this public board if people didn't gratuitously express opinions that had the potential for hurting other people.

[Rising Phoenix]

17. excuse me for one fucking second

do NOT compare my getting tattoos to a drug addiction mishandled by doctors. I am not Michael Jackson and I am not harming myself or anyone else. Don't like it fine. Don't compare my self expression to a drug addiction. And now.....IGNORE

[Rising Phoenix]

15. Thanks VO, for sticking up for me

Honestly I really don't care if he likes it, because one thing I have discovered is that he and I agree on NOTHING. I think his comment was rude, but ambut, as my nephew would say. That is philippino for WHATEVER. Back on ignore you go, just because you can't see someone face to face doesn't me all means of tact go out the window. I LOVE my new tat. It is my favorite.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

20. Happy to do it, and glad you're happy with your new tat.

I don't like to see people shitting in other people's cornflakes.

[Rising Phoenix]

21. yummy breakfast!

It is totally fine, UTO wouldn't agree with me if I said the sky was blue, or approve of me if I was a motherfucking saint. I love my tats, I love my new boobs, and every other permanent thing I've done to my body, and I've loved almost every temporary thing I've done to it as well. Because I love ME!

:loveya:

[MineralMan]

23. That's your motto? You have a motto that tells other people

what they shouldn't do? How odd. I have a motto, too, but it applies to me, not to others. It is:

Mind your own damn business. I say it to myself whenever I'm tempted to impose my preferences on others. It stops me every time.

Odd, huh?

[La Lioness Priyanka]

31. you are literally the most annoying person on the internet. with the least amount of grace.

[Deep13]
