Christian, it probably sounds to you like all the old guys preaching for you not to do it. Well trust me, they're speaking from experience. All of mine are around 30 years old now and look like crap. Luckily, they can all be covered. You would think that in a day where most things seem to be more and more acceptable, there are still things like tats that are certainly frowned upon in certain situations. I can tell you as mentioned above that certain employers will not look favorably towards it. It doesn't matter so much when you're younger but someday you're going to be looking for a key job and you just don't want that to be a mark against you.
So, if you do decide to get one (or more) consider being able to cover them. I've never said that I didn't wish I got mine (5 total), but if I had it to do over, I probably wouldn't. Ther are better quality inks now but trust me, they all fade and look like sh#t in a few years.
Seems like every kid I see (girls and guys) are loaded with tats.

Be different. Make a statement and don't get them.
