I like my tattoos and am not even heavily tattooed considered by today's standards, and if it wasn't for my job and the fact that I don't want to wear long-sleeves during summer, I would get my sleeves done as well.

"The difference between tattooed people and non-tattooed people is that tattooed people don't care if you don't have tattoos."

Get over it. Does it really bother you that individuals have tattoos? Is it somehow affecting your life personally? I highly doubt it. Let them do what they want. If they regret it later in life than so be it. It was their decision either they live with it or they get it removed. Stop obsessing over someone else decisions. This is why there are so many social problems in the world because everyone is worried about what everyone else does instead of worrying about their own problems.

I'm actually considering getting a tattoo, but I'm not sure what to get. Nothing serious but nothing frivolous either, or cliche, like a Chinese character or something like that.

Cause seriously...sometimes I feel like I'm the only non-tatooed square person in some of the bars I go to here in SF, lol. So many hipster types.

That's one of the worst possible reasons to get a tattoo.

I'd advise anyone who wants a tattoo but doesn't know what to get, to NOT get a tattoo. When you want a specific tattoo, that's a better time.

Yes, yes I know it's rationally a bad thing to do.

I'll try to avoid going near tattoo parlors while drinking heavily.

Just remember, should you ever wind up drunk near a tattoo parlor that's willing to tattoo you while you're drunk...

Safest tattoos ever are traditionals. Just in case your forearm can't resist.

My wife makes 6 figures a year, has her masters degree and heads up various organizations.
We have a wonderful loving marriage.
She also has her entire back done in a beautiful Japanese themed garden with flowers, birds and fish.
She also has a full sleeve on her left arm.

She lacks nothing.

I have six tats and am working on number 7. I lack for nothing either.

Care to try again with a theory?

A Tramp Stamp on a chick--no matter how gorgeous--is a deal-breaker for me.

Tacky & gross.

Yuck.

Are there still tattoo parlours without "no alcohol use" policies?
