Somebody on my other hang-out brought it up... honestly. (Fark.com)
PS.. I am only a Fark reader.. I seldom post, but do enter the
Photoshop contests often. (Best place 3rd and I am some proud of that
as some of these photoshoppers are a-frickin'-mazing.) Fark wouldn't
interest too many here.. it's a bit whacky.

I got my tattoo nonsense out of the way quickly, something over 50
years ago. A small blue "Russ" (short for my middle name) on my right
upper arm, because I was p[issed at my old man at the time (and I'm a
junior) I got out of Parris Island. Thus, first bar I hit outside
Lejeune let me get juiced enough to head for the tatto "artist." Back
then, the Marine Corps had a rule saying the tattoo could NOT show
when you were in uniform. Today, I think it now says that recruiters
cannot have shirt-sleeve style tattoos any more...who in hell would
sit still for that? Evidently, enough to be a problem.
Today, I look at that slightly stretched and faded mess on my arm and
scratch my head. Then I realize all these kids I see running around
today will be doing the same in 40-50 years, some after decades of
trying to hide the things (mine is covered nicely whenever I wear a
shirt). I see young women, girls really, bend over and their tops ride
up and some kind of odd pattern flow up from the cracks of their
asses...there are dozens of these visible around here, everyone under
38 seems to wear tops and jeans and underwear that doesn't come close
to meeting, so the view is always there, and particularly extensive
when they bend forward even a little.
God knows what some of that stuff will look like as the sags of age
set in.
I guess I should be glad I didn't follow the lead of some of my
companions at ITR: a cherry, with "Here's Mine, Where's Yours" arced
around it; Death Before Dishonor wrapped around a dagger; one idiot
who had a mosquito tattoed on the head of his dick; a tiger clawing
the arm; a USMC emblem, full color, taking up the upper arm. Or like
one I saw on a young Navy guy when I was in the VA hospital about
eight or nine years ago: he had a stork on his back, with the head
peering up and over his right shoulder.
Some of this seems to be due to a strange kind of non-pressure from
peers. If it's weird, it's fine. When I was a kid, we'd maybe buy a
pair of saddle-stitched, pegged pants, frow sideburns and comb our
hair into a DA, with plenty of oil. We'd wear them a few weeks while
drawing odd looks, and then slide the things in the closet, from
whence they never came again. The hair might last a bit longer (I got
rid of mine the day I enlisted...shaved, got a crew cut, and wouldja
believe, the barbers at PI still found enough to take some off).
Today, some idiot sees Sean Penn's huge back tattoo in "Mystic River"
and there are thousands clamoring to get a permanent signature of
apishness on their own backs. It CAN'T go back in the closet. It's
there forever...or at least as long as the back it's on lasts.
Ugh.

I have screwed up enough in life, I don't really want to remember. I would
just as soon remain blissfully unaware of the past and live in the present
and future.

You guy should take a tour thru parts of Los Angeles where the Mexican
Mafia/gangs hold forth.
It would appear that full body tattoos are req'd for membership
including the scalp.
As part of getting out of the gangs, there are tattoo removal programs
set up just so somebody can go for a job interview.
Fully tattooed bodies don't get many job interviews
Have no idea what long term effects of tattoo removal are.

I dunno, but for some of this full back/full front (or nearly so)
junk, I'm not sure laser surgery would be affordable (or sane). I'm
also not sure how well it would do in removing ink-stained tissue and
not leaving a scar. Better than a scalpel, sure, but if someone were
to scalp you, would you really care whether it was done neatly or
super-neatly? I'm with you on the scars, though. What with one thing
and six others, I sometimes think I've got a touch more scar tissue
than other kinds on fairly large portions of the ol' carcass.

I wonder how much effect laser surgery (the removal of a tattoo) has on the
decision to get a tattoo these days? From time to time I've considered that
surgery for the tattoo on my upper arm, but when I consider the wrinkles,
scars and marks on other places on my body, I discard the idea as a complete
waste of money.

As I understand it, laser surgery dissolves the dye pigment under the skin.
Ideally, there shouldn't be any scars at all other than what might have been
done initially by the needle insertion of the dye when getting the tattoo
originally.
As to long term effects, I guess laser surgery hasn't been around long
enough to gauge whether long term complications exist.

As I tell the younger people in my life: You can have a tattoo
when you have a patch over your eye and a parrot on your shoulder.

I tell them "You wouldn't want the same picture on your wall for the
rest of your life - why on earth would you want one on your body?"
