An hour of pain, a lifetime of regret -- when tattoos go bad

Seymour's advice about avoiding visible tattoos and other forms of body decoration at the office got me thinking about the wild designs that may lurk beneath your unassuming co-workers' starched Oxfords and pleated khakis. This blog gives some extreme (and often hilarious) examples of tattoos that you'd definitely want to keep concealed among everyone but your most intimate friends. It also reminded me of why, while I appreciate and respect the artistry of tattoos and the rationale behind most of them (except for the sort featured on the awful tattoo blog), I believe it's important to carefully consider your future goals before committing to any ink. While tattoos are not totally indelible, the scars resulting from tattoo removal usually are, so make absolutely sure you have a legitimate reason for getting one on an area that cannot be covered by long sleeves and pants. Getting a tattoo on impulse is about as good an idea as buying a pet crocodile on impulse, and it won't be nearly as good a conversation-starter, so caveat emptor.
