Today, I went to get my first tattoo. When I told the man that I wanted Tinkerbell on my lower back area. He snorted and told me that I was way too old to have Tinkerbell on me, and that Disney characters are only cute on people 35 and younger. I'm 23. FML

maybe you should spend less time at the tanning salon burning the crap out of your skin, and less time at the bar drinking your ass off thinking you look hot. the reality is you look used up and old.

WIN! And you look cute, so another win there XD

Find yourself a more professional artist. You're entitled to have whatever you want, you're paying him/her.

Actually, I want a tattoo artist to give me his opinion. They've probably seen a lot of lame/ill-conceived tattoos and can tell you when something is a bad idea. You don't have to listen, but at least they give you something to think about.

When it comes to tattoos peh... let someone get whatever they want, it's their body, regardless of their age or, in this case, their real age. The tattoo artist is being paid for a job, and unless it falls against personal or philosophical beliefs, (which i mean come on he's a tattoo artist what doesn't this guy get into himself?) he should've kept his mouth shut.. FYL

If he doesn't let you get the tattoo, tell him that your going to twist his balls off. But really, TINKERBELL? Get somthing classier, like an arrow pointing to your ass that says "EXIT ONLY" Oh yeah, can't get any classier with that.

@ Mabster84 I completely agree except he should have given her the tattoo even if it goes against his beliefs. Nobody should let their personal views get in the way of their job and if they can't set aside their own views and do their job then they need to get a new job. Course, that doesn't apply if the issue is something like the company engaging in illegal activities or something of that nature.

The first rule of being an artist is that you can't compromise your integrity. Do you really think he's going to be taken seriously in the community if he's drawing meaningless cartoon characters on drunk chicks? This guy's got a reputation to maintain that he's taken years to build. A lot of people who get tattoos don't realize that it's an artistic statement. An image that's inked into your skin, drawn onto your canvas for all time, has to mean something more than "cute". It's a work of art, not a decoration. Honestly, if you don't value the artist's input, if you can't properly defend and critique the emotional and intellectual minutiae of your statement to the world, you've got no business entering that tattoo parlour and collaborating with the artist in there. He's not a hack drawing squiggles on your skin. Your body is a canvas; that shit ought to mean something. inb4 jerb... tattoo artistry, just like any other creative endeavour, is pretty much a guarantee of poverty.

The internet: where ugly people can have opinions too.

well look at it this way honey, you'll be 35 eventually (unless you die of course). Get a tattoo that won't be too . . childish when your older. Some people are just dumb, and what he said was insensitive but still.

Has anyone ever gotten an error message "Variable Is Missing"? What does it mean?

Again Astro's wisdom shines through. People need to quit looking down on certain groups of people. Get a shirt that says "Trailer Trash And Proud Of It". Then get your ass antlers. You will be the queen of the bowling alley!

He's a jerk. Get a tattoo artist that understands and respects your wishes.

Those kinds of tattoo artists don't make art any more than Hedley and Nickelback make music.

Did you think he may have been suggesting you think carefully about it before getting it because one day you are going to be a lot older and it might not be as welcome to have Tinker Bell on your back anymore.
