Oh yea it is 2015 correct or is it 1915. One of the ways I have learned to stay younger is to roll with the flow. Our Priest has the most beautiful picture of Jesus and Clouds representing Heaven and a Cross on his back. It is breathtaking. I have several tattoos with family members names on them. They are tasteful and not on my neck, face, or forehead. I guess I understand why they turn you off as the placement of a tattoo could sway me also. It is a matter of opinion. We will be moving to The Villages in the next several months. We just want to be a positive influence on a beautiful existing community and just want to live peaceful but active life. I am presently very overweight but working on it with everything I've got. It's not easy. I respect you Mr. Chatbrat but I still hope your not my neighbor.

Personally I don't care for tattoos that adorn pretty much the whole body (check out the NBA players). In the same manner I don't like graffiti on subway cars, buildings or overhead passes like in NYC. But that's just me and I imagine that in 30 years there will be many new retirees in TV with sagging tattoos.
By the way, first impressions do matter, as we know by the job interviews we all went on. |

Second, please remember that this, like all web forums, is an anonymous site where people can hide behind their keyboards and at times express their "alter-ego" Mr. Chatbrat, with the same 90-95% odds that prevail in TV, is probably a wonderful neighbor. I wouldn't judge too harshly based on this site, I've posted a few things I wish I could take back as well. Third, welcome to TV |

I think my IQ is at least average or better.
 I have never worked in a circus. I do not have a communicable disease. Not sure how my chances for a good career would have been impacted because I was 62 when this one was done. (1999) I am a surprised at how judgmental some of these comments are.  Oh, and I also have one ear pierced.  By the way, I am a nice person, really, just ask. Don

I have no problem with tattoos, and they are very common in the 20-40 age range. I also see a lot of what I believe to be Villagers with tattoos as well. I think it's just a generational difference like longer hair on men in the 60's. I'm pretty sure there are no health risks from being served by someone with tattoos. I do not want one, but I generally accept those things that do not cause problems for me. Live and let live!

I wish I could live to see the day when we do not judge people by the color of their skin (black, white, red, inked, or whatever). I am sure that will never happen as people just can't help but draw parallels and opinions based on what they see.
I don't happen to like piercings but I am not troubled by those that have them. Most people with Tattoos just happen to like the art form, myself included. Pretend you are at a museum. Maybe even stop and admire the tattoo art and ask the bearer what inspired them. You may be surprised at the depth of their stories and inspiration. They aren't all bad. |

As a rebel, I have two tatoos and don't find them unsanitary or unsightly. Perhaps I shouldn't get the battleship done on my chest. Yes, I have my gang letters on my fingers "mah jongg" Haven't gotten the teardrop yet.

Tats are common these day, but......would you be comfortable with a physician who has visible tattoo's up and down there arms and neck, visible. Or even a dentist with piercing..... What about your financial planner or banker....
Like it or not, In my opinion, visible tattoos, piercing and the like just seem to represent something lesser to me......can't help thinking that way.....but its the truth. Is it cultural, I don't know.... Is it wrong, maybe.... The thing is that a walmart employee or a gas station attendant with tats and piercing doesn't bother me...... what does that say about me..... |
