The question is, why has the subject of tattoos triggered such a response from you? Is it a self-esteem issue or psychological issue that you feel you have to defend? Interesting....
If you read the whole thread you’ll see most of the people I’ve responded to are triggered, not me. I’m simply having a good time responding to cranky old guys. I wouldn’t really call if defending tattoos, more like attempting to open a few eyes. I’m abundantly aware of the fact that I’m going to get harassed more because I’m young and most guys are going to assume I’m broke white trash because I have tattoos. If it works cool, if not I’m pretty sure I’ll sleep fine tonight.
Funny thing is I share interests with the majority of guys on here and they’d probably enjoy my company given the opportunity. I hunt, fish, raise my kids, run my business, drive trucks and vote red. I just happen to have holes in my ears and a plethora of tattoos.
I hope you know by now the 'fire is simply a forum for a bunch of old grouchy fkr's to bitch and moan about everything under the sun.
And it's not limited to the 'fire, every sub-forum, every fk'n forum is the same.
Got my first tattoo a few weeks ago, my oldest daughter has begged me for years for a daddy daughter tattoo. She is going through some tough times and already had several so I said what the fk', if it helps her keep pressing on I will do it, and I will again when she asks.
Was born in a snowstorm, I carried her to shelter and milked the colostrum from mama and fed her that first night/day. She ran into a tree during a windstorm and messed up her spine. Not in pain but no balance. Of all the fuggin things, seriously?

I learned that in the first 30 min.
As for the tattoo, nice job dad. I’m sure that went farther than most are willing to admit. Kudos. 👏🏻
As for Post Malone,...I had never heard of him before he was mentioned in this thread. So I went to youtube to listen to his songs.
They're not totally painful to listen to. But they *are* totally bland.
I don't understand what's happened to young people's ear for music. I can appreciate many types of music,..even going back to the 30's and 40's. But there's just nothing to a lot of the stuff that passes for music these days. I doubt that anyone will be listening to it in 10 or 20 years like people listen to American music that was produced from the 30's up to the 80's.
That's not to say that nobody is producing good music today. But all of the hip hop inspired music is just instantly forgettable crap.
Somebody linked this video a while ago and I've watched it many times. I think it's excellent. So I guess that there's still good music being produced. But it doesn't seem to generate the interest that the tired, old hip hop crap continues to do.
