Are you sure this is a tattoo and not just some kind of marker drawn on the skin?

It looks so much like marker, that if it's a tattoo I'm wondering if it's actually expertly done and this was the desired look. Like, it's a copy of art with sentimental value or something.

I wouldn't get this myself but I don't absolutely hate it.

Your tatoo is not done, you need to finish it like the op ;)

Your tattoo looks great!

The entire basis of this sub existing in the first place is that people make bad decisions and you're asking why people make those bad decisions?

Easy to do yourself, and I'm guessing their knees are already fucked, lol

I like the concept, but this is no hand tattoo unless you really love to hold your hand up as a fist in front of you and shout, “WITH YOUR POWERS COMBINED, I AM CAPTAIN PLANET!” at parties.

It's not dumb to them. That tat is full of symbolic meaning. Maybe it could have been better done with more money. Maybe on their hand so it's a constant reminder.

Maybe if you don't like their tattoo, don't copy it and don't attach so hard to it.

Just practicing for when he tries it on his penis.

Ah, I know this one: It's because they're idiots.
