Ok, and I completely understand that they're not everyone's cup of tea, but maybe just put what you did above, instead of a your original post. You may not like them, but just saying 'hideous' is rather uncalled for. I don't like bleach blonde hair, but I wouldn't come out on a thread about it and just proclaim it hideous either.
I don't know really. I think they do look hideous. And so I would call it hideous. If someone takes offence at the term that's their issue. I'm not being offensive. If I think something looks hideous then I am entitled to say it.
I find your attitude hideous.
Hmm. Well, I don't recall asking for the opinion of a third party. Also if you practice going around telling people how to express themselves that's not very friendly either. I shall ignore you and not return to this post.
That is amazing!!
You had me at cephalopod! Just...wow!
Hmmm...I think that there could be what the kids today call a "teachable moment" here; another thread, another day?I don't know really. I think they do look hideous. And so I would call it hideous.

Someone here has as their tagline a quotation by Louis CK that I really like: "When a person tells you that you hurt them, you don't get to decide that you didn't."
I'm confused about your responses...I thought hideous was perfect.
Well I do like to learn from things and my term hideous did refer to the act of tattooing rather than the artwork so that needs clarification.
Some of the artwork is amazing after all - maybe I am narrow-minded because I'm not open to the idea. I feel that if I want to see art then I visit the art gallery.
And if in summer on the beach I see a woman with a snake halfway up her leg, I don't find that appealing.
But on the other hand, no-one is forcing me to look are they?
