First tattoos are like first marriages. At the beginning, you’re all in. You think they’re beautiful. And special. And they are just so you. But eventually you grow up. Or sober up. Or both. And you take a good look in the mirror and realize you fucking hate them. But now, you’re basically stuck with them forever. Whether it’s divorce or laser tattoo-removal, getting rid of that unwanted partner is going to be expensive. And painful. And after everything, they’ll still probably be there to some extent, if only faintly.

I can barely afford to get my Nickelback tattoo covered up. “Oh cool, what are you getting it covered up wth?” A tattoo for a band that will never go out of style: Imagine Dragons.
