Just curious: who's got ink?

[Recursion]

This came out of a Facebook thread where most of the people I knew in high school said they had no tattoos, which honestly kind of surprised me. Who are my fellow inked DU-ers?

1. Me

2. Just one I got

when I was 15 to piss off my mom.

That was 1975. I did cover a small part of it with something else small in '89.

3. 33% of Americans have tatoos now days.

I heard that on the radio the other day.

5. My Battalion SGM did a health & wellness inspection once and made us show all our tats

When he saw my "USMC" he said "Good idea, Lance Corporal Recursion: if you can't remember your branch of service I advise you to write it down."

7. LOL!

I'll spare you the Marine jokes. When my older brother was a Marine he got a couple tats, but neither one was military.

I didn't get mine until long after I had left the Army. I was at a VN vet reunion with a half dozen friends when one suggested we hit the tattoo artist tent for some ink. So we all did it as a pact--and nobody was even drinking.

6. Not me.

I don't think they are very attractive (I'm homely enough already) and I don't like pain.

8. I do. nt
