I Have Tattoos. Here's Why They're A Bad Idea.
Summary
Matt Walsh uses Nancy Mace’s new tattoos to launch a critique of the modern tattoo trend, arguing that permanent body art has become a cliché rather than a form of individual expression. He compares tattoos to bumper stickers, suggesting that locking in a stylistic choice forever is illogical as personal tastes inevitably change. Walsh admits his own tattoos are a "best case scenario" but concludes that the potential for long-term regret and social awkwardness makes them a poor investment compared to other purchases.
