Imagine deciding in your early 20's back in the 1990's to put on that awful floral shirt and those jeans torns and ripped with paisley patches. Your mullet hairstyle, your 10 earrings.

Now that's your fashion decision for the rest of your life because you thought this is such a cool look, you'll wear it until you die.

That's tattoos.



That is absolutely how I feel about it. And even if you don't, the world changes. Someone I know got his band logo tattooed, a big HP. Then a decade later 'Harry Potter' becomes the iconic HP with a similar style font ....


Hilarious. I'm imagining he gets the "Michael Bolton from Office Space" experience a lot if it's somewhere on his body that's easily visible. "So who's you're favorite character?"


The amount of people who get tattoos expecting the style to continue forever is astounding
