A casual acquaintance of mine told me her kid had a "straight edge" tattoo inked on his arm. Skater kid . . . pleasant, polite, studious . . . and sports a creepy raped-goth meets old school hip-hop look.
I had no idea about the "straight edge" philosophy until she enlightened me.
She seemed puzzled when I questioned if tattooing didn't run contrary to the whole "body is your temple" thing.
Indulgent parents . . . buy 'em a fucking T-Shirt . . . not a tat.
