Her entire tone is condescending, but it was her attempts to make this a gender issue that really put me over the edge.

He’s getting paid he should just do what he’s told to do like a good little peon. And while we’re at it how dare a chef refuse to pour ranch dressing on every single thing I order off of her/his carefully crafted menu. I’m the customer so I’m always right.

You got a star for the Chasing Amy reference.

I like Journey too, but I don’t blame him for not playing it either because if he plays something he hates.

He wasn’t shitty to her, and her gender had nothing to do with his across the board “no neck tattoos” policy. I’d agree that it was shitty if his policy was “not neck tattoos on women,” but it’s an across the board policy. She chose to make it seem like it was about her gender as a way to justify her petty response to…

As the wife of someone who is allergic to nuts fuck that woman.

And, I’m sorry, but a tiny bit of script is not “art”.

Yeah if I suddenly stopped caring about my appearance I would ignore the advice of people who know better, but since that day hasn’t arrived I stand by what I said.

Not that I agree with your extremely childish handling of this situation at all I just wanted to reply to remind you to sunscreen the hell out of that tattoo now that you have it. Don’t want it fading really fast.

My husband is a musician, and no matter how much money you throw at him, if you want to hear Journey or Bruce Springsteen you better have an iPod on you because he’s not playing it. He refuses to play either because he hates their music.

He didn’t do the fucking face tattoo; he copied it.

If a clothing designer told me something wouldn’t look good on my body I’d probably fucking listen to them. I also listen to my hair stylist when she steers me away from certain haircuts or colors because she knows more about that shit than I do.

Honestly the person who wrote this article comes across as an easily butthurt little princess with an entitled as fuck attitude. She also seems extremely rude and condescending judging by her “ugh lasers” comment to the employee at the 2nd shop who tried to talk her out of the tattoo because she knew from experience…

We also only have her word for him saying it was tacky, and the way she comes across (what with posting his work in an attempt to ridicule it) I’m more than a little inclined to call shenanigans on that part of her story.

Hands and feet (including fingers and toes) tattoo very poorly and don’t heal well. Most artists don’t want crappy faded work that never healed properly being paraded around with their names attached. Neck tattoos can make future employment difficult so unless you have other visible tattoos most artists won’t do those…

Because it’s not fast food, and tattoo artists stake their reputation and business on word of mouth. If he does a tattoo that she regrets down the line and starts badmouthing he can lose business. Tattoo artists do this all the time, and they have the right to do so.

As it damn well should be.

I hope it’s absolutely withering.

Or pierced for the same reasons.

And he’s entitled to refuse to do any tattoo for any reason, and that’s what happened so I don’t understand why she’s having a fucking toddler tantrum about it. She really does come across as condescending (the whole ugh lasers thing to the employee at the 2nd shop) and entitled.
