Why I'm Reluctant to Get Tattoos

The title is from Possum Wave, as is the comic. I've never had a tattoo. When people ask, I say, "Life has enough pain without paying for more."

  1. I don't really think that a sailor in the '30s getting a tattoo would have ever put that much thought into the symbolism and meaning behind it.

  2. Pick out a design at the parlor and ask the guy what it is, where it comes from. Not much thought involved.

  3. At least it's backwards from a Nazi swastika. Pretty amazing how this symbol has been used by so many throughout history. See Swastika in Wikipedia.
