Gaming Tattoos

[Ironwood]

The best thing since Iron Bread.

I'm not saying it's right, I'm just saying how it is. Sexual Harassment is bullshit anyway.

So you're saying that I SHOULD be able to tell my female employees, "Blow me or get out," or that the current definition of "anything that offends me" is bullshit?

[MrHat]

I'm still pissed at my brother for getting a barcode tattoo.


Not for getting a tattoo, but for not taking the time to put USEFUL information in the tattoo, he just had the guy draw some lines.  My brother says no one cares but me.

I'm guessing the latter, because anyone with sense knows that sexual harassment is unfortunately very real.

[Merusk]

Well, unfortunatly I've come across more than a few folks who DO believe it's all imagined and they have every right to grope, fondle or whatever their female employees over the years, so I had to ask.

[Ironwood]

He said anyone with sense.

I too know idiots.

You could throw a rock into the average cubicle today and probably hit 2 or 3.

Touching is not sexual harassment, that is sexual abuse.

AFAIK, it's pretty much legally considered sexual harassment (when you're at the grope/fondle stage), although it IS an "offensive touching," so I guess you could make the argument that a battery or sexual battery is also occurring. The thing is that sexual battery is also the same as rape in some states...so you end up with a large scope of criminal cases in that respect. I do think it'd make for a nifty civil action, however.

[Ironwood]

Thank God we got off the contentious issue of tattoos and moved to the safe discussion area of rape.

 

[Signe]

He should put pebbles under the dots so pretty blind girls will want to read his body.

[CmdrSlack]

Or get them pierced....although your pebble idea is probably easier to pull off.

[Furiously]

I was thinking RFID chips for food items to make for fun times at the grocery store.

[DraconianOne]

I like the direction this thread is going.   :-D  Kids, tattoos are bad, mkay!  You won't get a job, won't amount to nothin' and will probably wind up on the back of a milk carton.

Not me, I would not be able to commit, plus my wife says "no".  That is all.

Mine doesn't like them either.  Do what I did and get one done before you met her.

Oh wait...

[Ookii]

My amusement (which clearly never came through because I suspect some people have an inkling of 'zomg') was mostly at a tattoo (visual medium) being done in Braille.  I suspect it's merely Oooki wanting a line to get blind girls to feel his arm.  Whatever works.  Personally, I'd have gone for a barcode if I'd wanted to say something about robots.  I mean, is it a blind robot ?  Can't we get Data to go into the Jeffries Tubes to fix the optical sensors ?

I'm glad you're so vocal about your disapproval of my tattoo, I  you too.

The main problem is you really just don't get it, which is clear from the paragraph above.  Oh, and have fun getting your tattoo if you make Director, it will be the most literal tattoo ever inked on to the human body.

[Oban]

I think reaching the upper levels of the Yakuza requires a damn near full body tattoo.

[Ironwood]

Yeah, but you also lose fingers.  No thanks.

I'll get Catsby and Twisp inked on my shoulder in honor of this quote.

[Oban]

Catsby and Twisp was the worst penny arcade series ever.

Why in god's name would you want to have that on your body?

[Ironwood]

Because It's Not For You.

 

[Furiously]

If I was a zombie, I would have pee'd my pants a little there.

[HAMMER FRENZY]

Man Ironwood. You are kind of a jerk. You just kinda come off like a lame ass. I Hope it is just in this thread, I don't want to jump to conclusions or anything, but really, good thing this guy wasn't at the F13 get-together. I wish one of these smiley icons was a punch to the face.... 

I like the tattoo ooki, I have never seen anything like it.

Oh man, I can't get off this...Virtual punches to the face. If there was some way to virtually smash someone in the snotbox, the internet would be much cooler. Mayeb that would keep people from acting like jerk-wads. 

[Signe]

Oh here come the hissy fits! 

[Righ]

He looked older in the photo?

[Furiously]

Man Ironwood. You are kind of a jerk.

But eventually you come to love that about him.

[HAMMER FRENZY]

Yeah, well that's a relief.

HA!  My userID isn't all caps!  I'm MUCH better than HAMMER FRENZY!  MUCH!

Tell him I care.  That'll shut him up!

[murdoc]

If you have tattoos, expect people to comment on them, whether or not it was asked for. Who cares what other people say, if you got a tattoo for other people to like it, you got it for the WRONG reason. If Ookii likes his tattoo and it's what he wanted, then what does it matter what someone else thinks. I personally think it's a sweet tattoo, but I'm a big fan of word/letter tats or ones that say something. I keep threatening my wife with getting her name in binary somewhere on me.

[HAMMER FRENZY]

Ha, What is really funny is that if you guys met me, you would never guess it's me. I'm super cooooool.

[Viin]

That's what Schild said - but now we know better.

[Sky]

I don't want to jump to conclusions or anything, but really, good thing this guy wasn't at the F13 get-together.

The heavy-hitters are here?

And..Oban ftw.

[Roac]

You're a self-absorbed artist who has admitted difficulty in grasping the differential between personal and electronic forms of expression, the latter of which has so far been singularly violent.  Fascinating in a Pollock way, I'm sure.

[Ironwood]

Someone misses the annual subscription to Internet Tough Guy.


Look, you have around 70 posts to my, well, I dunno - a fair few.  I've been around here and around these chaps for a long, long while and I've yet to be banned.  I know, no-one was more surprised than me.

I have some leeway here.  I like all these chaps in one form or another (Except Triforcer because He's Evil.) 

Surprisingly, people are leaping to my defence here.  Again, surprise shared;  who knew.

Give it time.  You might get to really, really Loathe me.  Then at least it would have a point and be more than damn silly posturing.

I have views on tats that are kinda strange.  Who really, really gives a fuck ?
