I tend to agree, which is probably why I don't have any tattoos, but my friends that do have them make me suspect that they may care about different stuff than us.

Most of the tattoos that I've seen are frankly uninspired. Dragons, flowers, skulls, knives. Some of the more unique ones are album artwork, but how creative is that really? Yet nobody seems bothered by this, they all show them off proudly! (There are some exceptions... My cousin had a full sleeve of Freddy Krueger making the pussy eating symbol with his blade fingers that was probably the crown jewel of some artists portfolio. An odd choice to be sure, but an impressive piece of work.)

I've come to believe that the draw here is the act of personalizing one's own body, not the quality of the art.

I have a friend who has this on her back: https://ocean.si.edu/through-time/evolution/darwins-evolutio...

she's really into science and evolution in particular.

I don't think it's particularly pretty, but probably unique.
