I have 3/4 sleeves so it's not too much of a big deal. Most times I keep my arms covered up in sensitive situations, and I rarely wear shorts, so my leg sleeve is no big deal.

I've been tattooed for 6 or so years, I always keep my shirt on when I'm outside. Either that or I'm wearing sunblock if I'm forced to take off my shirt. I'm Irish and Welsh so I'm one of the whitest people on the earth, pigment-ally speaking. My tattoos are still really bright, it's really cool.

I used to work at the tattoo shop a lot, you'd be surprised how dumb some people can be. I've had guys get tattoos and then tell me that the very next day they're going on a tropical vacation, looking forward to sunbathing, swimming in the ocean, etc. Uh, OK bro! Have fun with that salt water... that tattoo you just paid $125 / hour for is going to look like a puddle of cat puke in a week!

hahahaha

I get mine done at tattooiowa.com. The tattoo in progress is my wife getting an ankle band of 8 roses with each rose being the birthstone color of one of our 8 kids. She was pregnant with #8 at the time so that was blank until he was born.

ArBuckle shares dumb people stories with me all the time. I see so much tanned ink it amazes me.
