Thirteen Orphans: Dec 2, 2012; I am a writer, a doctor, a nuclear physicist and a theoretical philosopher. But above all, I am a man, a hopelessly inquisitive man, just like you.

Grief massively fucks with you and it was probably done on instinct. I know I can look back with clearer eyes and say �oh wow I acted like a massive jerk� at times.

poo poo I totally forgot I posted in here but yeah this. She was in a really raw place emotionally and now has a daily reminder that her husband is dead right there on her arm. She didn't listen to us then and she doesn't listen to us now about cover ups and poo poo so :shrug:

I don't know if this is tasteless exactly but I am willing to claim it's not a good tattoo.

Basically: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41570-020-0214-z

And yes OP, that is not a good tattoo. Very little consistency between the characters (look at all the zeroes) and the vertical alignment leaves a bit to be desired. It's far (far far far far far far far) from the worst thing posted in this thread, but it's pretty easy to spot the flaws in that one.

I wouldn't call that "existential terror", more of a pronounced "Ummmmmmmmmmmm.....you sure about this?"

Probably about that taking 4 hours to do.

Yeah the placement is also....not great. But it looks like its covering up some self harm scars so I guess she had to put it there. Still a pretty crappy tattoo.

The ones that the tail has been tattooed over? Maybe, I'm not an expert, but they look like actual scars more than the obvious stretch marks further down the thigh.

this is fine? :shrug:

making it a R&M tattoo is kinda goofy, but it's also a loving astounding troll on the types of R&M fans we're all thinking of when we gripe about R&M fans

e: like, this is cursed until you imagine how a dumbass nazi R&M fan is gonna react to it.

If you look at it from the opposite direction, that's a whale overjoyed by its new set of ears.

"And since this is not a naturally tenable position for a whale, this poor innocent creature had very little time to come to terms with its identity as a whale before it then had to come to terms with not being a whale any more."

Or get a bowl of petunias on the other thigh.

Has anyone had a good windfish tattoo done because I think I'd like to see it if it's happened.

I saw this as a bumper sticker the other day, but was less confused.

Edit: Also does that guy make a living doing pretty simple (but mostly clean) script tattoos? I guess if you can charge $300/hr and bang out 5 of those in a day that's good money...
