 at the first bit, yeah I guess it does RK, however we are not allowed to shoot these scum over here (if only)
These guys are too dumb I reckon to even be thinking what they are gonna look like in say 20 yrs or so, if they live that long.

Now that you mention it, I don't think I have really seen anyone over maybe 35 with a face tattoo, so maybe their life expectancy isn't so good. Could be ink seepage to the brain or something.

I have a chevy bowtie on my uppr right arm filled in with a waving American flag, and I have Mr. Horsepower on my upper left arm. I also own a 69 chevelle SS. After my wife and girls, my two biggest passions in life are my chevys and my bicycles, both of which are very fast

As I have some free time this week so far, I just went and got a back piece done. I spent three hours getting the center part done, a nice version of death.

Two.
Left bicep/upper arm a roman numeral IX
Between my shoulder blades i have sanskrit Om between Japanese "Eien" or eternity.
Kanji tat's are dumb, i know, but the difference for me is, i calligraphed and designed the tat myself, and read speak and write japanese so it kind of is a part of who i be.

In the US more money is spent on removing tatoos than having them put on. I guess a few folks had second thoughts.

i dont know man....i know dudes that have dropped SOOOO much money in ink...but i guess the laser removal procedure or whatever is pretty expensive. People who get tattoos of names of wives (except for children), Cartoon characters, neck/face(unless your tribal) tats, and barbed wire will regret it someday.
IMHO
But it is NOT innately a bad idea to get a tattoo. It's a bad idea to smoke cigarettes. It's a bad idea to smoke crack cocaine. But getting a tattoo will not kill you.
