...I'd have to agree with you on that one.

Betraying my age here, but I remember that I was in college when getting tattoos started to be the "In" thing to do along with body piercings, and dying hair. Not dying it in purple or pink (much), but by making it look obvious that you had a dye job...making black hair look REALLY black, etc. A year or two later came the WILD dye jobs.

Thought it would last 5 years once those who got the tats and piercings started getting "buyer's remorse", and then fizzle out like any other fad.
Well, it has definitely been more than 5 years...and here we are.
