Roeper on Tattoos

Roeper on tattoos:

You can’t call the tattoo craze a craze anymore, as it’s been going on for more than a decade and it crosses all demographics.

Still, one day it will ebb. Today’s 10-year-old will become tomorrow’s 20-year-old, who doesn’t want to have anything to do with what mom and dad think is cool. I can see a college kid in 2015 saying, “My mother has my name tattooed on her neck. I mean, is she old-fashioned or what?”

I have no tattoos and never got a piercing. I saw Larger than Life which features a retired circus painted lady. Elderly, and covered with tattoos. That was the future tattooed people have embraced, and they don’t know it.
