Dear all guys that excessively wear Superman shirts and/or have Superman tattoos,
In the past, I used to take all of the merchandising shit surrounding me as a compliment. The sight of my symbol randomly speckled throughout a crowd of cheering fans made me feel important, heroic, and most importantly rich as hell from all of the royalties. Not that I really need money. I'm fucking Superman. I once flew around the planet so fast I traveled back in time. I can shoot heat rays out of my eyes an...

The "in" thing for all the jocks in my high school was to get superman tattoo's. I have ran into at least 3 of them that wish they didn't have it. Come to think of it I have only ran into 3 jocks from high school since I graduated.

"...freeze your fucking ass into the first ice sculpture ever to suffer from acne."
Perfect.
Thank you for writing this article. There is a group of three guys at my gym that all work out together who all have the Superman tatt on their right arms. They're like a club or something. "The Superdouches". They wear Zuba work out pants and everything. I hate them.

I wish I had talked to you earlier. I used to have a 'Barb Wire' Tatoo on my upper arm but when that got corny and I realized that it was actually a design intended for a chick I got a Superman logo put over it, so now I have an 'S' wrapped in fading green barbed wire.
It has been called to my attention that I am a prick.

My 16th level thief/swashbuckler would straight up smoke your ass--and it doesn't matter if it's in Greyhawk or on mother fucking Krypton. Oh yeah, nice tights, snake charmer.

*cough*
sweet purple & yellow "lakers" superman logo, douche-fuck.
no, not the ones embroidered in the seats of your 45 cars that you can't fit in, i'm talking about the one stitched onto your bed.
what's with the arm, shoulder, bicep locations for the tattoo? quit being such a fucking pussy and tattoo that shit on your chest. what's that? oh, right. i guess you wouldn't be able to shave it for a month.
general hate in this article, but really could you have picked an easier target. Superman fans are comic book losers, or former comic book losers who got beat up one too many times and decided to go the route of roids and non-stop lifting. That said, you killed it - 5.
Why don't more people have Robin or Aquaman tatoos??

I hate to be a prick to one of my boys here but the tribal band is no better than the superman S. Sorry buddy.
Speaking of regretable tats how many of you know people with the "Goldberg Tat." Nobody without delts like his should be sporting that. My landlord actually has that tat on the back of his calf it looks sooooo fucking dumb.
I'm going with yes, no doubt ma and pa didn't give her enough attention as a child so she got this sweet butterfly on the small of her back. Probably not one to introduce to your parents, but I predict a tiger in bed.

Giant tat on her arm (sleeve) = Hot Tramp Stamp = Could go either way. Tat on the tit = Nasty Tat on the hip = Nice as long as it's not a fucking dolphin or a rose.
I dated this chick who had huge tits and a gigantic butterfly on her right rib cage. That shit was hot as hell.

No really a fan. Don't get me wrong this isn't to say if a drunkin slut has a tat i won't hit it, i will fuck that bitch till her pussy is bleeding and she can't fucking walk, but i won't call her again, ever.

I'm ok with it, but there is a fine line between "cool/acceptable" and "way too fucking many." And as someone else already pointed out it better not be a fucking dolphin, flower, sun or Chinese symbol unless you're actually Chinese and even then it's debatable.
A chic that Sparta dated who had "huge tits" and we're supposed to believe he had any idea where her *rib cage* was?
TMAN: regarding the guys who regret the Superman tat from high school - have you ever known anyone who doesn't regret a tatoo from 10-plus years ago (with the possible exception of an ethnic symbol/flag or kids' initials)? Ever?
And that answers the tat debate - don't be a fucking idiot. That is a permenant marking you are putting on your body. Think about what you were like, the things you liked, etc, from 5, 10, 15, 20 years ago. Do you really expect to be the same person 5, 10, 15, 20 years from now? Don't be a dumb-ass. What will we be putting over the Superman/barbed wire/Chinese symbol/Mighty Mouse tatoo (each of which has sequentially gone from edgy to trendy to passe to lame to pathetic) down the line?
As for chics with tats - disposable (ironically). Face it - she/it will look silly at some point, so you ain't hanging around for too long.
based on how they're going to look at 40. I don't ever want a 40 year old chic, and I'll do my best to avoid that until I'm dead. That said, my stance is that if they're cool tats, sweet. If they're stupid and cliched, she probably is too.
Not to be the nice guy here, but it really depends on the chick is she's smokin hot and cool, but has retarded tattoo, I'll probably put up with it. I don't dig on the covered in them though. I dated one tattoo freak, and by the time we broke up she had 4, but constantly talked about how many more she wanted. That didn't cause the end, but I didn't want to end up with a circus freak either.
Idiots get "trendy" or fad tats. People with taste, and or artistic merit, get shit that will be cool. But honestly, when you're 55 or 60, you won't look good without a shirt on, so who cares about your worn out looking tat.

Good points AB, when your old enough to have a bag looking tattoo you should be fully clothed at all times.
Also, if your going to get a tat, either draw it yourself or have the artist do it. Just picking something off the wall is LAME. There's nothing like having a tat that 1000's of other people have.

I am so sick of you guys picking something about a woman and then saying you couldn't bang her or whatever. You would. you all would.
I can't imagine one of you (married folks excluded) who would turn down a chick with a cliche' tattoo. I'm not just saying this because of the daisy on my shoulder blade either.
Guys can get what ever they want on their bodies and we put up with it. At least for the most part, the girls are picking pretty things. Flowers, hearts, fairies, etc. They are trying to keep it nice.
If I had the balls I would get a Garbage Pail Kid tattoo on my ass, but I know that my options would be extremely limited after that. So I went the safe route.
Also, I do want to get one on my foot. Perhaps you guys could recommend something that isn't "unbangable".
