Oh this is simple, you're a goth. Your music taste can now only be Depeche Mode, The Cure, HIM, & London after midnight. Please see Thagasaur on your way out for your obligatory palmette tattoo.
I hate all of that music 😭
They're all wrong. You're either an av tech/engineer or a mime with amnesia.
Or maybe it's a Wee Sing in Sillyville and you're actually wearing a kaleidescope of colors that are all the same value.
Only alternative is to become a music teacher or Discworld Assassin. I don't make the rules.
It's the law
Sorry, dems da rules.
I looked up palmette and saw a feature of art deco buildings that I haven’t really seen in tattoos, then looked up “palmette” tattoo and even with the quotes, it was all saw palmettos. What’s a palmette tattoo look like?
You sure you were spelling it correctly?
That’s the architectural feature that came up, so I probably spelled it correctly, but it was the same as how I spelled it in the comment.
I have never seen that kind of tattoo before and many of my friends would probably be considered goth (but we’re olds and I’m not observant). Does it reference something?
I usually see it on the top of the hand, and I'm old too. Wonder if it's regional. I've seen it mainly in the southern US
Ah, maybe. I’m from New England and live in Germany.
