3 Reasons Why Only Idiots Get Lover's Names Tattooed



  1. Love can Turn to Hate. If it does you're STUCK with a constant reminder of how that person controlled you. You'll want it removed or covered, both cost money.

  2. Names change but tattoos stay the same. You're lover might decide to change his or her name. Hey, it happens. Maybe a celebrity or politician with their name does something despicable. Of course, you'll be stuck with name too and everyone will think you endorse the despicable person. For example, what if you're lover's name was "OJ"?

  3. It's a CURSE in the tattoo world. No matter how much you love someone who is living, getting his or her name tattooed on you is almost a guaranteed breakup. I can think of few reasons why this is so. First, getting a name tattooed is a desperate attempt to show the person how much you love him or her. It usually doesn't work and some people get freaked out by it. Second, the name is a kind of BRAND. The person wearing it may realize this later on, leading to resentment.

Satanic Devil Tattoos



Contrary to popular belief a devil does NOT mean you are a SATANIST. I have a Devil Tattoo & I'm a Zennist. Devil tattoos can represent the mischievous little boy or girl inside us all. It doesn't mean that you are evil or anti-religious. Everybody has a little devil in them. It must be honored.

The devil tattoo wearer is having a little fun and it should be taken as such. Even when a tattoo artist paints horns on an angel, it is just their expression of the duality. We are evil and good at the same time.

Devil tattoos in extreme cases may be a form of religious expression, but this is rarely the case. And even most satanist are widely misunderstood. Many of Anton Levey's books are very funny and much more aimed hedonism than midnight blood sacrifices of virgins.

Devil tattoos can also represent the constant temptation that we have in life. Perhaps that's why the mere sight of them can instill the fear of eternal wraith, ironically reminding the wearer to steer clear of sin. Devil and Satan tattoos are also kind of talisman. Since you have evil on you already, evil will leave you alone. This odd logic and superstition are common in the tattoo world. You see it a lot with nautical tattoos. I think the Traditional Rooster & Pig Tattoos exemplify it best.
