Haven't read the rest of your post yet but I'm leaning towards no

I was firmly in the "no" column and then I saw the words "AC Milan" and am now very much firmly in the "no" column.

Very rude and disrespectful posts itt

Accurate.

Don't get a tattoo.

Is there not a single boarder with a tattoo then?

Tattoos suck

I don't have one, but I'm not averse to them. But you seem pretty ambivalent to the entire enterprise, which is a rather permanent undertaking, therefore it seems at the very least delaying this procedure would be the obvious answer.

I also don't like your tattoo idea but it's not my skin.

I have personally never liked body modification and doubt I'll ever get any. From a young age I was averse to even impermanent body mods like facepainting and fake tattoos. I didn't like the idea of putting something on your body that you would have to painstakingly wash off later. It never felt like me.

I've stopped judging other peoples' tattoos so much since literally every urban person has them nowadays and occasionally they look fine, but I like being unadorned. I feel that I always will.

These intern bros that show up everyday wearing a different color Under Armour polo need to step up their game in life.

Kind of wanted to start a thread about this for some time now.

Polos are bad. There are very few good reasons to ever put on a polo, especially one branded by an athletic company. Most Under Armour gear is terrible too - their sense of style is Midwestern camo dad.

Polos are fine and can even be good as long as they're built around one solid colour. There's no reason to ever wear a striped polo, I'm with you to that extent.

Also, this was a bit harsh. I'm not sexually attracted to tattoos but I think a lot of them are good as art, and I'm glad that Buggerhen has one on his arms that says 'DADA' b/c I'm never going to tire of making the 'what a charming tribute to his father' joke whenever someone notices it

Went to a funeral on Wednesday, silently and smugly scrutinized the high percentage of polos in the small group of mourners.

That is what I call lazy mourning.

I was actually very surprised because I would have assumed you would be one of the few boarders with a tattoo somewhere on their body. I don't know why, it just seems like it would suit you from the very little that I know about your personality.

I guess my original post probably came off more ambivalent that I intended. I have actually always wanted to get a tattoo on my forearm for some reason. When I was a little kid, after having read Vonnegut for the first time, I wanted to get "So it goes." tattooed to my arm. It is more accurate to say that I am really judgmental of other people's tattoos. For example, there is this douche at the gym who has a tattoo on his forearm that just says "all men must serve." I don't get the reference, but it is definitely some militaristic, macho man bullshit. Also, he is always watching Fox News while working out. I am looking for any excuse that I can find to beat the shit out of this dude someday at the gym. I've sized him up and can definitely take him.

Tangent aside, I will probably wait to get my tattoo a little longer. My other idea was to get a stylized organize canary somewhere on my body. My grandfather always raised canaries and growing up I spent a lot of time watching him take care of all these birds. Also, it was with his friends in his small town in southern Italy that he used to go around catching birds with that he first became an Interisti.

Polos are hell.

I had no idea what this was but almost every result on Google says it's a Game of Thrones reference.

You should ask him!

I have tattoos and I also wear polos so perhaps that answers your question?

Also, its worth noting that different pigments hold in your skin better, and thin lines done in blue will likely fade and/or bleed out more than black, leading to that blurry and washed out look you might find on an ex-convict. If you are going to get script I would recommend black for this reason.

I don't mind permanently altering my body, but I've always been a fan of the way tattoos look so if yours is a recent change of heart I would give it a little more time. And my polos are fucking great.

At least it wasn't like that funeral in St Louis where I didn't even know the guy and still wore a suit while these dipshits wore turquoise t-shirts and white shorts.

This is a better idea.

I'll wear a polo not often but some times so use that information as you will.

I have been averse to polos my whole life. I got some at Uniqlo and thought I could make them work.

I never, ever feel good when I'm wearing them and the last time I did, someone told me I looked like I was a member of the alt-right.

I don't even know if I can tell one pair of jeans from another.

I still have my preferences but they're associated with personal prejudices and there are some brands I habitually avoid because I associate them with ill-fitting pairs of jeans I owned as a child.

I don't know if I've ever owned a pair of quality jeans. Have I really been missing out?

I have several tattoos & will probably get many more.

My favorite jeans are APC. I have 3 pairs that I rotate with a pair from Uniqlo.

I had bought a pair of jeans from a small jean shop in Austin called Traveler Denim that were incredible. But apparently it was a husband & wife business & they got divorced & stopped production altogether.
