Looking at some of the women in the Motor Boating thread and I couldn't help but think...I wonder how many of them regret their tattoos.

I'm thinking...the older you are when you get your tattoos, the less likely the risk of regret.

I had some on my arm that i had removed. When i was in the forces it became a fad to tattoo your kills. After the fact it was embarrasing and shameful. I kept it covered all the time but it was a constant reminder and had a hard time with it, so finally had surgery to remove them.

Man, there's some sad lookin' tattoos out there...
Don't regret getting it, regret using the guy that did it and -ucked it up.
There are so many artists with talent...and then there's those others.

I wondered the same thing...pretty girl with a full sleeve or whatever at 25 years, what's the ink going to look like at 50 years? Mine looks a lot worse than it did 28 years ago when I got it.

That’s probably because some government agency decided that a requirement would have to be non gmo , ethically harvested ,environmentally friendly ink.
