“Check out this sweet tattoo design I’m gonna get,” Thad says.
Corey grimaces, “Tattoos are permanent. Are you sure you will still be happy with this…dragon riding a motorcycle when you’re fifty?”
“Totally, dude! Why wouldn’t I?”
“Well, think of it this way,” Chad speaks slowly, “What did you think was cool fifteen years ago?”
“I dunno. Cartoons.”
“And would you want a tattoo of those now?”
Thad’s eyes grow wide, “You just saved me, bro. Totally dodged a bullet.”
Corey smiles, “Glad to be of service.”
“A Darkwing Duck tattoo would be much more awesome.”
Corey palms his face.


15 years later I STILL want that SR-71 tattoo but too chicken to get it.
