I wish I had the perfect answer for that. For me, it's a combination of:

Because what, there aren't plenty of western-made FPS' in which you play against real countries? Russia, China and Iran would like a word with you.

I'm someone who has a half sleeve, is happy he did and is getting the other arm done soon. It took me ten years from first wanting one at 18 to getting mine done at 28, but that's because my design evolved - as did I. Your mileage may vary.

Aww, thanks! I hope you have your seatbelt on it that picture.
