When getting a tattoo, there are many things to consider. Unless you happen to be that person(drunk or not) that does it on a whim, not thinking, and then in the morning, regrets it. I know someone who got a big samurai on his back. Still don't understand the meaning and/or purpose, but nonetheless the samurai remains and will remain until he is an old wrinkly man. Shouldn't there be more to the reason than just, "I like samurai's." Maybe or maybe not. Maybe they think they're a samurai, like batman. Normal guy by day, samurai by night. Who knows, and who cares. Only the person that got that tattoo in the first place. But doesn't it make you wonder why someone can't explain what their motives were for placing a specific, detailed permanent piece of artwork on their body?
This world map tattoo has specific meaning. It is NOT my wrist, but I know that it has a story. It has a meaning. And even if someone can't explain why they chose a certain tattoo, it always makes for great conversation, and a great story. Maybe tattoo's should be the new "Got a light" pickup line? You would be amazed to see how much you can learn about someone from a tattoo.
