I have a tattoo, my brother does not. When people ask him why not he always tells them "Because my parents did a good job"

Most end up regretting tattoos and they are really expensive to remove. It's also a somewhat painful process which involves breaking down the ink with a laser.

They can't be expensive though unless the "subscription" is like 500 bucks a month, so you are just getting relatively cheap watches rather than one Rolex or something.

I'm one of the few men to go through the Marines and never get a tat. It's because I always legit considered myself too attractive to deface my body with permanent ink.

My brother is a former Marine pilot, I think a big reason he never got one was because he hated every Marine stereotype he encountered in Qunatico and Pensacola

My grandpa always said any man who is at work or has time that he values should own a watch. My dad taught us to always make sure it matches your belt and shoes when you're wearing slacks or a suit.

I was watching miley cyrus on the television and i noticed she had an anchor tattoo on her arm. I feel it is only appropriate to get an anchor tattoo if you are a sailor or marine at least an avid fisherman. Than i realized it probably represents something faggy like the anchor tattoo on her wrist is to remind herself to stay grounded.

My grandma once said only sailors or circus folk get tattoos

This bothers me because I was once texting at a red light, and rear-ended someone because I looked up and saw green and went forward because I thought I was holding up the people behind me. Luckily it just dented our license plates slightly, but it was a frightening shock to feel that *bump*.

When you have someone else in the car and you need to use a smartphone function, either your friend can take care of it for you or it can wait. The exception being skipping songs, which you should be able to do without more than a glance.

I was a sailor for nine years and didn't get a single tattoo because every douchebag walking around these days has nautical stars and sparrows. Pretty much completely devalued the meaning of traditional nautical tats when you see a gently caress with like eight nautical stars, a full rigged ship, three turtles and nine anchors with HOLD FAST across the knuckles but turns out he's never even been outside of Iowa.
