Dumbass tattoos... why do it?

[SF1900]

Exactly. 

And if I am still sane and alive and doing well, most people in my life that I have known for a long time won't care at that point. I highly doubt my best friend, if they are still alive at that age, are going to say, "Well your tattoos now look shitty now that youre older. Looks like I will have to throw away 40 years of friendship."

 So its a stupid point to even bring up.

My sister and I joke about this!! I'm sure we will still bicker well into our senior years and will definitely make fun of tattoos. The quote on my bicep will someday say, "ajdhrowhwishfif" ha!

Its dumb when people say, "When youre older, they are going to look like shit."

True. Smart people would say that they look like shit right now.

Great generalization you got there. Surely only stupid people are tattooed. Ya know, like the founders of my firm who are multimillionaires and heaven forbid all of the doctors, scientists, etc. It must be awful to be so dense.

Whether people who have excessive tattoos admit it or not, they are, in some way shape or form... mentally ill.

Yeah, unlike gear users. 

Its dumb when people say, "When youre older, they are going to look like shit." Really, how old is that?

By the time I am 70, Ill probably be shitting and drooling on myself, impotent, alone, depressed, and barely clinging to life. Shitty looking, aged tattoos will be the last thing on my mind.

If you're sickly at 70 you've abused the shit out of yourself throughout your life. 70 isn't old.

Actually according to multiple sites, including SSA.Gov the average male life expectancy is mid to upper 70's.

Which means half the population lives longer.

Now, what percentage of the male population takes care of their health? Living a healthy lifestyle is a somewhat recent phenomenon so stats won't be there.

Exercise and eat a well balanced diet and assuming you don't have horrible genetics you'll be good well into your 80's and/or 90's.

Ok, calm down, genius. I was just making an analogy, i.e., when youre old, who really gives a shit how your tattoos look. By the time you reach 70+, most of life is behind you. Your tattoos really wont matter at the point. It was just meant to stress the point that you have completed a good portion of your life (perhaps retired from job, and have friends and family for a long time, hopefully. Thus, your tattoos wont matter). The analogy was not meant to be "scientific." But I guess you feel smarter now

Yeah, I know. I just like to stir the pot.

Surely only stupid people are tattooed.

Generally speaking, most who feel the need to scribble all over themselves like an asshole are fucking imbeciles with zero aesthetic sensibility whatsoever.

[Beckenbauer]

If someone gets a tatto, chances are they don't care what others think anyway. And would someone say to your face your tatto looks like shit?  

Point is people regret cause our taste change. It matters what u think, if u can live with it and never regret then good for u.
