It seems to me that while getting tattoo'd, many people do not take into account the probability of future weight gain. Think about it. The teeny tiny rose on your shoulder may one day look like a Miracle Grow induced weed, and that cute little ink cupcake could quickly turn into a seven layer torte. Instead of determining one 'small' image to mark on your terminally slim body, it may be a smarter solution to think of something that can only get better with time (and growth!) If you are thinking of a small one-size-fits-all tat, the following is a list of easy to cultivate alternatives I would recommend for you:

1. A tidal wave

2. A hot air balloon

3. A sponge

4. Lady Gaga (celebrities are great, they get bigger and bigger all the time)

5. A tornado

6. A magic bean stalk

7. Breasts

8. A killer whale

9. A nuclear explosion

10. Pizza dough

I'm not hating, I just appreciate the art of a skillfully inked body and want people to be happy with them the whole time they have them. These are all very stylish and appropriate options for every day life. Feel free to work on getting a sleeve of all ten. Just don't put my face anywhere in the mix, I don't want it to expand. :)
