Here's your question and answer of the week from the Punknews Formspring:
Q: How dumb are brand tattoos? Is a brand tattoo the same as getting a band tattoo?
A:
I'm going to say that unless a brand has paid you money to wreck your physical appearance that getting their tattoo is dumb. Even then it's iffy. I'm not sure if $50,000 is really worth getting a "GoldenPalace.com" tattoo on your back and ruining your life.
I don't put brand and band on the same level however. Most people have emotional attachments to bands they get tattooed on their body. That isn't to say that Pepsi isn't a large part of my life, but I don't think I'd quote, "You picked the right one baby" in my senior year book. That said, I have no tattoos. So suck it.-Rich
