Seems as if there are more and more folks, esp sports and entertainment and sometimes people right in our neckofthewoods. Big NECK tattoos. After spotting this I wonder what they will do when they’re 60, 70, 80. Perhaps tattoo removal will be a good investment business.
Mind you I’m fine with tattoos, it’s your body and life. But sometimes it’s a Yikes. Esp the sleeve tatts and hand tatts. And now Neck.
When we have a Server or such with a few tatts I ask the significance etc etc.
Also on the “getting cranky” topic, I just got back from a drive up and back on Buena Vista. Going around about 16 roundabouts. 5 of them, drivers simply HAD to go directly side by side with me even tho I slowed etc before. 2 even cut the line close and I needed to brake more than normal in case they would cut over. It was not busy and no need to cut corners. C’mon - common sense folks. Don’t parallel drive around roundabouts!!!

I had a college friend who became a doctor but opened a sideline business removing tattoos by laser. He made much more money doing that than as the head of a large ER practice in Arizona. Frankly, I’ve never seen a tattoo as attractive as the skin underneath it was, and that “little flower on my ankle” never looks as nice as even the worst painting of a flower. To me, a tattoo on the neck or face instantly signals that the person bearing it has given up on life and expects to die of an overdose or gunshot or spend life in prison. Sorry, but that’s how it seems to me. Complete turn-off.
