Tattoos

As I get farther into What Happened to Goodbye, Mclean frequently mentions matching tattoos that two of her new friends, Riley and Dave, have. It's a simple black circle on their wrists and it seems to hold a lot of meaning to both of them, or it used to. Deb, another friend, asks about it and doesn't get a direct answer. Deb then says that she's thought about getting a tattoo before but she hasn't yet found something she's passionate about to inspire a tattoo.



I've never been a big fan of tattoos and I don't think I'll ever get one. But I think that they can look amazing on other people, especially if they have a sentimental meaning. I've seen special quotes, song lyrics, tributes to lost loved ones, and some that are completely pointless and the result of a bad decision.

I think that if someone wants to get a tattoo, they should be sure that they want it because they'll be stuck with it forever. There's also the issue of getting what you pay for, so they should try to find a competent artist and be willing to pay extra for their work. Would you ever get a tattoo? If so, of what?
