Cobra

Okay. I'm not going to lie. I don't understand tattoos sometimes but there are some pretty cool ones I've seen in my life. I'm also cool with the idea that some people like to treat their body as a "canvas" and want to fill every square inch with some kind of drawing in ink. That's alright with me. I can even understand the motive of "I want to be different"...well, to a point...

Being a car guy, I'll admit that I have my favorites. I can't say that I've ever wanted to tattoo the Mustang logo or the Corvette flags on myself anywhere. Nor do I really want to ink my 89 Cavalier Z24 project car on my forearm. Sadly, someone did just that. They tattooed their 2002 Cavalier on their forearm. Now it's there for life...even if he gets tired of the car and wants nothing to do with it, it's gonna be there. Save for having it lasered off and leaving a nice scar there in the shape of his car. Yet another one (again on the forearm) is a huge Lincoln symbol with a butterfly on it that goes from just above the wrist to just below the elbow. What? Really, I don't understand.

I'm glad they find it interesting to treat their body as a canvas. But what about if/when you get tired of that car or that brand...or it just disappears one day? What then?
