Age Appropriate? Mind Your Own Business! — Dave’s Diary

I’ve got some bad news for my on-air radio partner Lance. He’s gotten into tattoos in the past couple of years, but the news of which I speak comes in the form of a verdict from the court of public opinion.

The UK Daily Mail asked 1,000 people what they would say is the oldest someone should be getting a new tattoo. That poll reveals most respondents think age 31 should be the cut-off for getting a new tattoo What about riding a skateboard?  Twenty-six would seem to be the cut-off for riding a skateboard. Most respondents said women should not wear bikinis after age 48, and not wear a crop top after age 28.

For men, those polled said they should not have a goatee past age 34, or wear a baseball hat past age 32. Also, to look cool texting one should not use abbreviations such as LOL after age 29, or use emoticons after age 26. Wow, who knew people were so opinionated? Well, as Lance would say, age is just a number -- do what makes you feel alive!
