For me, I prefer to have more control over the way I'm perceived instead of in a way that I think is one dimensional. I can't be summed up in one image on my arm, but people are going to assume I can be if I had that tattoo. I'm not saying you're one-dimensional, either, just that by putting that on your arm, you're a walking billboard advertising you. And you apparently relate very closesly to pumpkins.
Who are these people that judge people by their tattoos? Hopefully not good folks like yourself that want to make the Stampede more Christian.
