I know it's just part of being a cranky old man, but I think you should earn your tattoos. I once had to pay for a session I couldn't finish, but I wouldn't use the numbing cream. It's worth it to me.

Yeah, to my understanding, most places won't tolerate it. At least reputable places. Personally, I couldn't imagine getting work done while intoxicated. It's too risky.

Yeah, being "impared" might work for specific personalities, but a fair number of drunks lose the ability to make wise decisions or control their physical body (including their mouth). Same for being f*cked up. I've never known a tattooist who wants someone like that in their chair. Many simply won't tolerate it.

I always go 100% sober, I bring water/candy/a banana
