I have often thought about having a traditional intertwining Japanese Koi on the top of my arm and shoulder... but have not done it yet, not sure if i ever will, but I am not offended by the thought.
While some tattoos can look quite 'tatty' and 'common' some can be tasteful and beautiful works of art. Some are worn as badges, some to shock. If done with discrection I see no harm.
