Why are permanent tattoos so much more popular than temporary ones? (hexbear.net)

I clearly just don't understand the appeal of tattoos. If they were something like makeup you throw on temporarily for an event then sure whatever but... the permanent, painful, and expensive option is the one everybody chooses? To put a picture of a bird on your arm? Lmao why

I only have 3. One was total teenage impulse, but the other two are for meaningful things in my life. They both represent bonds to people that I love, and seeing them reminds me of those people and makes me smile. And when people ask about them, I get to talk about those people, which is also nice.
