| 23:44 |
mircea_popescu |
doing something on the basis of "it'll be cook for 12 seconds the first time someone sees me and once in 7 months at a party" is very dumb in that it neglects the other 99.99% of the context. |

this is my point : if you are a tribal hunter, you are a tribal hunter all day long. if you're vory, you're the fucking stars. fine. |
| 23:45 |
mircea_popescu |
but if you're some office plankton there's no tattoo thart can possibly fit. |
| 23:45 |
mircea_popescu |
hence the problem with the mid thigh ribbons. |
| 23:46 |
mircea_popescu |
the "im a munition" woman was going to actually be a munition MAYBE once, ever. |
| 23:46 |
mircea_popescu |
otherwise, she was going to be a confused ditz. |
| 23:46 |
asciilifeform |
i met people with horrid tat who made it specifically to close off life of being office plankton |
| 23:47 |
mircea_popescu |
i suppose. |
| 23:47 |
asciilifeform |
so possibly even this has a use. |
| 23:47 |
mircea_popescu |
but this is again the fundamental problem : it;s not a matter of "use". |
| 23:47 |
mircea_popescu |
the "use" of symbolic / ritual behaviour is an attempt of primitive mind to translate for roman faggot. |
| 23:47 |
mircea_popescu |
she isn't going to BE the fucking thing. |
| 23:47 |
asciilifeform |
noshit |
| 23:47 |
mircea_popescu |
well so then it's going to be ridiculous, what. |
| 23:48 |
mircea_popescu |
most of the time, the item will only serve to prove that she's not what she thought she might be. |
| 23:48 |
mircea_popescu |
because she's a use aka gnoseology and tattos are a being aka ontology. and these do not meet. |
| 23:49 |
asciilifeform |
the 'munition' thing was possible exception : in the clinton-era statutes, a body with rsa perl ~was~ counted 'munition' |
| 23:49 |
mircea_popescu |
by whom ? |
| 23:49 |
asciilifeform |
state dept |
| 23:49 |
mircea_popescu |
was she going to be a munition living among the brazillians ? |
| 23:49 |
mircea_popescu |
cuz ak round is munition even in africa. |
| 23:49 |
asciilifeform |
idea was to troll the border guards in usa |
| 23:50 |
mircea_popescu |
no, i get the idea. |
| 23:50 |
asciilifeform |
obviously didnt work |
| 23:50 |
mircea_popescu |
the problem with this idea is that person spends 1 ppm if that doing the item ; and rest of 999`999 ppm doing something incompatible. |
| 23:50 |
mircea_popescu |
and this is the fundamental point here : white slut of contemporary does so many incompatible things she can't be meaningfully tattooed. |
| 23:50 |
asciilifeform |
no different than , e.g., impregnations |
| 23:51 |
mircea_popescu |
many uses, no specific identity. any attempt can end in involuntary humor and naught else. |
| 23:51 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform for "career women" trying to "balance it" and so on ? yes, no different. |
| 23:58 |
mircea_popescu |
the ~only even vaguely possible wester-contemporary-tattoo is of course http://btcbase.org/log/2015-04-15#1102059 ; but not even this works, because why the fuck are you getting a IANA for it. however you turn this, tattoos dun work in modern world. |

it's funny because by the time tattoo crazy started there was already enough old people with tattoos that both had the almost uniform "i made terrible mistakes" attitude and very much were self-evident personification of the sentiment. and then i guess there was a new generation planning on never getting old (or changing in any way) |
| 23:58 |
mircea_popescu |
and the reason they don't work is very strictly related to "freedom" and you know, consumer market segmentation. as long as there's no universally meaningfull root there can't possibly be meaningful tribal behaviour ; and if there is such a root there can't be democracy. |
