Hi

I have just watched DIY sos and a perfectly pleasant woman had the most awful tattoos. Why on earth to people do this to themselves.

I do think there is the ocassional taateful tattoo but it is the odd one. Andy while it might look great on a fit 22 year old body a tattoo of any kind will NEVER look great in your 50s.

YAWN.

Listen love, you're not gonna look good at 50 without tattoos so really doesn't make much difference.

personally I think random apostrophes look far worse than tattoos on 50 year old women

Plopsie · 31/05/2010 20:11

NomDePlume, what about starting a sentence in lower case and then neglecting a full stop?

bibbitybobbityhat · 31/05/2010 20:12

Roffle at this!

Yes yes yessity yes, am less offended by the odd tatoo than by the people who seemingly don't know how to spell tattoo or tattoos.

KurriKurri · 31/05/2010 20:13

Groundhog Day anyone?

I might start a thread called 'AIBU to start a thread about tattoos which is spelled correctly, and not unnecessarily apostrophised.' [Bored pedant emoticon]

TheHeathenOfSuburbia · 31/05/2010 20:13

AIBU... to wonder why people who don't like tattoos can't spell?

Lauriefairycake · 31/05/2010 20:13

It's a tattoo

yabu

I quite fancy a little butterfly on my foot - I have very pretty feet and I think it will look nice.

Damn my typing speed!

feralgirl · 31/05/2010 20:14

AIBU to think that people who can't use apostrophes correctly are gross?

I've always struggled with apostrophes tbh NomDePlume. I typed my reply fast and wasn't thinking

NomDePlume · 31/05/2010 20:15
