c. It'll hurt like hell.
d. What if you don't stay married?



A line around the circumference of my ring finger about ____________ this size is going to resemble a ring. Are people offended by rings?

I have friends with tattoos, I am sure the pain this might cause me pales in comparison.

I plan on staying married. Marriage is permanent, like a tatoo. People wear rings because they are a symbol. Like I said you can't undo a tattoo... you can't undo a marriage. When I am married, I am married end of story. 'Til Death do us part' is not 'til i get bored, or we go broke, or ...'

don't you have full sleeves Jason?

why not, or are you being facetious?

It's not the same thing, lol.
Yeesh.


Also, marriages aren't permanent. They can be but they are not always.

Nor are tattoos.

Some of the crazier tattoos just aren't my thing. It's like wearing an Affliction shirt for life.

He cut off his dreds and fully tattooed his head

Only hardcore heads will know what i'm talking about.... 25 ta life

It's funny that he was crying for donations for medical bills not too long ago and now he has enough money to get more tattoos...

I thought that was obvious so I didn't mention it, but yeah. Things don't last forever these days.

nothing to do with the future of your marriage, I'm not a fan of facial or hand tattoos unless you are in that line of work and the wedding band line tattoo just looks gauche

might be cheaper than a ring, but I'd go the traditional route this round. Look into Titanium ring for yourself, they can go for a very affordable price, around low $200s

w00t? Not only can a tattoo be taken off but so can a finger and or hand.

I hardly think it makes a person unique.

My cousin has "pro life" tattood on his back. More of a political statement than a fashion statement...

I feel that is beyond the power of mere ink. Also the statement infers that people who do not have a tattoo are not unique.

I wouldn't think too much into what you initially reacted to. The guy was just making random posts all across the forum with no actual thought to rack up a post count.

Robbie- I'd agree with Get Smart to definitely go for titanium if you want to keep costs down. Tattoo wedding band, while in theory sounds nice (real permanence), in reality could look pretty bad. It would probably end up looking more like a prison tattoo than something nice to express the love you have for your bride. You also have to keep in mind that tattoo will fade with exposure to the elements. I believe that Jesse James (the motorcycle builder) has a tattoo on the palm of his hand that regularly wears off.
