Comment 3-Getting Inked

Although i agree with you that getting a tattoo is someones choice and to be bothered by other peoples tattoos is a bit stupid .However arguesing that tattoos can't be bad because they are so old isn't right.
Racism is pretty old. So's rape. And worst of all so is Cliff Richard!

Comment 2

What if someones religion dictates that they must preach their religion and try to convert others, it that being too religious?

Comment 1

Although I agree with you that stalking is wrong. Celebrities do realise what they are getting themselves into and rheir is a fine line between stalking and what the papparazi do.

Tattoos + Lying= Mistake



I got told a story the other day about a friend of a friend that applies well here...


John has a tattoo of his ex's name in Japenese on his back. His new girlfriend asks him what it means and to avoid and arguement he says 'Love'. months go by and they are getting pretty serious, so serious that he askes her to marry him. She says yes. To prove her love she decides to surprise him by getting a matching tattoo done. Needless to say she is still none the wiser that she has his ex's name on her back.


Theirs no moral, its just funny!
