1. Yes, I am fat.
2. No, I'm not fat enough that back fat juts out a foot beyond where my arm is. I know ****s like BitchBoy and cosmo, neither of whom have ever met me (or anybody else here), like to make it sound like I'm Jabba the Hut, but sorry, that's just not the case.
3. The tat sits right where a normal short sleeve covers it. Not sure where else I would put it in that area.
The 48 hour period that I have to leave the clear bandage on has nearly run, so shortly I'm going to take that off and clean all the crap off it. Looking forward to that, since it's basically looked like a giant black and red smudge for the past couple of days.

I also looked pin up girl tats, and also the old school looking tats. Like you might see in Sailor Jerry branding etc.
My current job wouldn’t care at all but my fear would be losing that gig, and having to go back to an engineering type firm and have to wear long sleeves all the time.
Maybe one day.

I'm a Shellback as well, although not Golden. While I'm less opposed to getting a Navy tat now that I've popped my cherry, so to speak, it still seems like I'd be doing it about 30 years too late. But you never know.
