stay above the elbows. Not trying to start a war or hijack his thread, but please keep keep it in mind. The guys that say screw it and "I can just wear long sleeves" pump gas for a living most times.

agreed.
actaully, if you dont mind getting it on your leg, i think that would be even better. tattoos below the elbows just dont look good when you have to dress up and its nice out, especially for occasions like weddings.

well once you get on, you will be addicted, i got my first on my arm, my next on my back, then on my forarm. iam looking at getting more. let me tell you, you probaby been told tons of times, but make sure what your getting tattooed is what you really want, shop around, if its your first time they will try to over price you. take really good care of it for the few first months, or it will look like crap.. it will scab over and dont pick the scabs.
hope all goes well..
p.s chew on a couple packs of life savers, helps out...

Not me, and I've got four on my forearms and one on my right hand.

Yeah if you guys are sleeved then you know exactly what I am saying, you think I am making a character attack? come on...I still believe it is sound advise for someone thinking about thier FIRST tattoo. Dropping below the elbow is a serious commitment that I personally dont think someone should make when they are 16-20 years old. JMO

I travel alot, when in the UK or Scotland having Irish pride tattoo'd on ya isnt a good thing. St Patty's is always fun but theres the rest of the year when you CANT get free Guiness to think about too. I conciously made the commitment and am perfectly willing to stand by it, but its a definate source of agitation to others when we travel.

I've considerd getting one for 9 years. I can say I'm glad I don't have one but I'm not opposed to them at all. I just can't find or can't describe what I want. What ever you do make sure you get a good artist and don't pick something off the wall or in their books. Spend the money and get the art done specific to your likings. My friend drives to Miami to get his tatoos and they are expensive but amazing.

I been getting ink done since I have been a teen, my view on the matter is you only live once, make your your life count, who needs limitations by what other people think. by the way i have a much better job then working at a gas station, one more thing, it feels like getting scratched by a cat, then while your healing it feels like a sunburn healing.
