Seriously, tattoos are lame.
Tattoos aren't in and of themselves lame. People get all sort of lame tattoos, however. There's an awful lot of really beautiful stuff out there too.
It's going to be an ugly green smear you will regrat (sic).
You're largely thinking of low-quality ones done in pen ink by some guy in a back room. Those tend to be real crap jobs that over time look like shit.
Modern tattoos done by a qualified artist are an entirely different animal in terms of how they look, and how they hold up over time.
And, really, if the sum total you have to add is "tattoos are lame", why are you even bothering to comment? You obviously have nothing better to contribute to the topic.
Wow, finally someone with sense. I got a full sleeve last year, and I'm still the same nerdy software engineer I always was, making good money at my same job. The only difference now is I get a ton of people coming up to me starting conversations about my tattoo when before I was treated like any other software engineer who got ignored. Everyone at my work is cool with it, and I never wear long sleeve shirts. Would you really want to work at a place that cared about what you looked like anyway??
