To all the regulars on the tattoo site......which question makes you cringe whenever you see it posted here?

I know we each have our favorites. Post your favorite question (and the answer you REALLY wish you could give them)

I hate the scratcher questions but lately the "I'm 14 years old why can't I have a tattoo" questions are killing me.....You can't have a tattoo for the same reason that you can't drink, or smoke, or drive, or vote,.......because you are a CHILD!!!!

Next......

Update:

Hell Amelia.....I'm *# years old and I don't know my own mind from one day to the next....pre-teen is too young for ink

Update 2:

Mine didn't hurt lucky.....but I did have mine licked on by kittens....(sorry, my favorite line from Friends)

Update 3:

Ain't that the truth Babyblue......and by the way, how do you like my hair? Should I part in on the side or use styling gel?

Update 4:

Thanks for playing Milly.....so how much DID your ink cost? and what did you pay for that shirt?......those shoes?

Update 5:

Thanks Maggie

Update 6:

Come on Faith.....you know getting a tattoo is painless.....unless you get the iron-on tattoos.....

Update 7:

Thanks Kebert........by the way where CAN I find a good nautical stair?

Update 8:

Come on Teri.....that's not fair.....What SHOULD it get? I want a tree and a stream.....no wait....I want a geisha under a tree.......no wait......What should I get?

Update 9:

How much DID that cost Vickie.....and should I have it tattooed on me?

Update 10:

Hey JKC...it's so good to hear from ya. You are correct....damn near every question asked nowadays makes me cringe. I mainly hang around here because of old friends like you.......and the new ones I hope to meet. You have a great day!!

Update 11:

Sorry Roxy.... I wasn't paying attention, I was trying to find the Kanji for the phrase "My tattoo is in a language I can't read"........Yes, I think I'll join you in the desk-headbanging-thing.....

Update 12:

But my tattoos DO make me look hot don't they Princess?......

Update 13:

LOL .......I like that Lela....and you are correct, they keep asking until they get the answers that they want......(I like the pledge of allegience on the foot thing, I may have to steal that line from ya)

Update 14:

Back to Teri K........ I happen to love that geisha under the tree tattoo too..... I just had to mess with you about something.....

Update 15:

Ok Emox... Take a deep breath. Hold it in......and release. There.....don't you feel better? Now where exactly is your playboy bunny tattoo?........sorry (ducking and running for cover)

Update 16:

Now isn't that strange Kris, I heard that you got your tattoo design that way...... NOT

Update 17:

so basically sparkley.....you hate all questions equally.... No wonder we don't see you and your bling on here as often

Update 18:

HEY BETTY......I hate that question too.... My grandchildren (if I every have any) will love grandpa's tattoos....... It's not like I have tattoos of people having freaky sex or something.......jeez.....get a life people

    Hi! The one that drives me crazy besides the does it hurt is the what should I get?? They say I have a great personality, I am fun and so on. Makes me crazy! And the thing that makes me crazier is that get mad when you comment that they should research on their own and decide what they really like since they will have it for a lifetime! Some days I just have to click off since there are so many questions asking that.

    Ha ha Rider! Geisha under a tree....i get it...I happen to LOVE that tattoo and guess what it did hurt! lol!!

    No prob Rider! You made me laugh! Thanks!

    Honestly - how do you even pick which one makes you cringe? Lately, they ALL make me cringe. Apparently the "search" option is not on everyone's computer.

    There have been those stupid questions like, "Guys, what do you think about tattooed girls?" and vise versa. Not sure if these questions are from non-tattooed people trying to bait tattooed people and make them mad, or really stupid people who are basing their decision on whether or not to get a tattoo by what strangers on the internet think is hot or not.

    Aside from all that, my top pet peeve that has been prolific lately is the children wanting advice on how to get around the age requirement to get a tattoo. Or the "how do I convice my parents" question or possibly the children getting on here and answering questions....

    I've realized too many things annoy me on here lately, which is why I rarely answer any longer.

    The question that gets me is Do Guys Like Tattoos On Girls? How Many Tattoos Should A Girl Get? These questions make me laugh. And there are others, but these really make me wonder about the askers, simply because I am tattooed and have NO problems with guys and nobody asked me how many I have, or why I got them. Unless they are afraid that I will go "biker" on them. LOL. Just kidding. =)

    Oh goodness rider there are tooooooo many!

    The "what tat should I get" < if you don't know ....don't get one

    "How old do you have to be?" < If you are asking you are to young and there are countless times this has been asked....i am sure you can find the answer in the "discover" section of Y!A

    any and all hater questions/answers.......why are you in the tat section? you obviously have no desire to have one, let alone know enough about it to give advice other then "DOn't do it...you'll be a tramp" or something along that line. I am sick of the haters coming here and bashing people with tattoos.....I like them and so do a lot of others, get over it I am not dating you , friends with you and you are not in my family so your opinion on tats doesn't make any difference to me....and further more they were for me NOT YOU!

    whew...I think I will move on now, getting too into that rant there LOL ^_^

    I also have an issue with the people asking if they think it is hot or not to have a tat on a girl/guy....why does it matter? They are supposed to be personal and not to look "hot" or not! I didn't get mine to look good for someone else, I got mine because I wanted them for me.

    I could go on all day...but we will keep it semi short and say repeate questions are really bothersome...is it so hard to look it up??

  • How do you think about the answers? You can sign in to vote the answer.
  • I'm going to go with one that isn't a common question but definitely made me cringe:

    "where can I find an original Playboy Bunny drawing?"

    and I pretty much say what I want (toned down a little so I'm not reported for everything)

    it went something like:

    "the same place you can find an original barbed wire or star tattoo"

    --------------

    my least favorite is the "how much will it cost?"

    I don't understand how people can think they'll get an accurate answer

    it's like me asking them "how much did the pants I'm wearing cost?"

    but along with you.....there are countless questions that annoy me

  • 1 decade ago

    The question tha annoys me is all the ignorant people asking " will a tattoo hurt? " come on now really did you just of this question before you asked it your having someone inject ink into your skin really do you not think this will not hurt to some extent and if the pain is truly something that worries you don*t get the tatttoo and not only that there is always someone who has asked this question previously why not just read their answers so you won't be wasting anyones time.

    Hey Rider. Nice question!

    Yeah - that one has been peeving me too but I would say my biggest peeve is one of the other really commonly asked questions 'How much does a tattoo cost?" - You know, the ones that seem like they are trying to get something really good for as cheap as possible?

    It never ceases to amaze me that people think you can get bargain basement ink and go home with something to be proud of.

    When are people going to realise that there are many levels of experience when it comes to tattooists which is reflected in their hourly rate? And that canvases vary greatly in size, just as some artists work a lot quicker than others?

    You want to know how much a tattoo costs? Go ask the bloody tattooist for god's sake! =)

    Is a tramp stamp trashy.?....The term TRAMP STAMP should clarify that.

    Do you like tattoos?...NO they're gross, I get them because I'm punishing myself

    How much will a tattoo on my foot of the pledge of Allegiance cost, will it hurt and is it a good idea?...It will cost a million dollars, It's gonna feel peachy, and it doesn't matter if it really IS a good idea, your going to pick the answer that tells you what you wanna hear anyway!

    (sorry, that was kinda a rant, huh...oh well...)

    Oh and one more thing...

    How do I get a tattoo that is just like (insert celebrity here)'s tattoo? If you want to look just like everyone else go buy your clothes at Ambercrombie and Fitch and DON'T GET TATTOOED!!

  • 1 decade ago

    The ones that really get me are the people who want tatts when they're like " oh , I know it hurts.. you don't need to describe it to me at all ... even though I've never experienced it before, you don't have to just be nice for once and tell me how it was for you... I'll just go in totally oblivious." People are not stupid for asking, they're asking because they honestly want someone to tell them what it was like for them. They don't mean to be annoying, and maybe we should judge these people's questions as if it was us asking. (even if you think you're so great that you'd never ask it)I have tattoos and No for me where I got them, they didn't really hurt, just a little right on the bone,. Other than that, no. I think the golden rule applies here. But maybe it's just too fun to complain for some.
