What are you going to do about your tattoos when you're older?!

(1/7) > >>

Vash:
This is sound advice.


At this point I am sleeved on both arms from knuckles to shoulders, tattooed on the right side of my neck/head and now have my right shin covered completely. I've gone too far to turn back now  O0

I love the art I've collected and look forward to what I'll collect next.

A little encouragement for my SLY tattooed brothers.

Slyfive:
That is EXACTLY how I feel, thanks for sharing Vash. I hope to be fully suited up by then, when you've reached that age, why not wear your story on your skin!

Blitzed:
I didn't start getting tats until I was in my sixties. I've now got ten and the number is only going to grow. You can't have just one and I don't. The up side is that mine will look fresh for some little while, easily last until I'm up for a "viewing" prior to the cremation. I don't regret them although I worry about the very young and if having them may have an impact on their future.

Here's a really bad thing; Rapper 50cent took boxer Floyd Mayweather's son to get his arms fully tatted up with gang signs. The kid is 13. Mayweather was annoyed but only because his son was out until 2:30 am on a school night. PJ

Natedawg:
Nice!  O0

I personally don't have any tats. I've been wanting to get one (or more) for years... Problem is, I can't think of anything I want on my body for the rest of my life. Is what I pick still gonna have meaning to me 30 years later when I'm in my 60s? I know it's probably one of those things where you have to just a take a leap the first time, but I'm still apprehensive... Waddayagonnado?

Exactly what I'm thinking.

Also, if a tat has meaning for me today that's what counts for me. If I'm still sucking wind in 20 or 30 years and I am past that stage that is signified by the tat so be it. It doesn't mean that I regret having it, it just means that I've progressed beyong the point I was at when I got the ink. It's still part of my story. That will never change.
