I was trying to figure out WTF is going on here...

The text tattoos, eyebrow, corner of the eye, chest, are all backwards, but Texas is not.

Makes me think he did the text himself whlle looking in a mirror.

People probably tell him "Dude, your tats are backwards!" at which point he looks in a mirror and thinks they look fine.

The crack pipe under his chin should give away the reason for any of the other tattoo designs

[-] unaccomplishedbottom@lemm.ee 38 points 1 month ago

It's a meth pipe. Crack pipes are just a tube without the bowl

[-] match@pawb.social 17 points 1 month ago

No, it's a spoon being heated up, so heroin

The text on the cap is also backwards, it's just Texas that's the wrong way

[-] lurch@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 month ago

you know what. reverse texas sounds like a really nice place actually 😌

[-] Sergio@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 month ago

Reverse Texas is basically California.

I'm always resistant to throwing trashy around. It just feels really shitty to judge that on one picture. Some tats, it really can be the angle or lighting that makes a difference.

But, sometimes, you run across a pic like this where there's so many problems I just can't think of a better word for the tattoos.

Bad placements, bad techniques, bad designs, bad everything. Like, if you're gonna do face ink, make sure they're well executed.

There is a certain degree of intentionality to some people's choices of bad tattoos, where it's a form of self expression to have badly done or otherwise bad ink. But this doesn't look like that, it just looks like someone thought these were good and doesn't know better.

How can you make yourself more unemployable than having a visible face/neck/head tattoo?

It's a badly drawn crack pipe...

[-] Hawk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 month ago

All the tattoos look like he did them himself in front of a mirror

[-] IhaveCrabs111@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

A mirror in a funhouse

Not everyone prioritizes "employability" as much as you

Edit: I just realized what community I'm in- nvm. I should probably just block this community

[-] Halosheep@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

But how is he gonna pay for his drugs without a job???

Right, the Texas tattoo would be my first priority, too 😅

[-] bnrnrtbgd@sh.itjust.works 33 points 1 month ago

There's an entire hand covering her face, there's no way to make it "clearer". Might as well let an ai guess what she looks like.

Why not ask them to take another picture? Is this the only one in existence? Did they agree to the wedding invite?

Not sure if this is so much better

[-] jonne@infosec.pub 6 points 1 month ago

I mean, remove a couple of the other tattoos and it's basically presentable.

So, changing everything about them and it becomes an OK picture.

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Now give both of them Ratatouille rats please

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

Fine, I'll do it myself:

(the left one can't actually control him because of the darn hat)

And change the background with a church.

Are they registered at the local meth house?

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago

The meth pipe on the neck is …wow yeah

[-] peetabix@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 month ago

Pretty sure that's a lighter and a spoon for heroin.

[-] thistleboy@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Definitely a bulb for smoking meth.

You all do realize those are just drawn on with a marker right? If those were real, and fresh enough to have the ink smear, they would be way more red and probably raised a bit.

[-] CanadianCorhen@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 month ago

i REALLY hope you are right

[-] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

those tats are entirely real, old, and indistinct because they were put on in prison.

[-] Hobo@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

You can literally see the smear lines in the picture (the chin especially). On top of that they're clearly taking a joke picture and she's hiding her laughter. If this dude has these face tattoos and teeth THAT nice he's like a complete anomaly. Everything in this picture says those are marker, but you can believe whatever you want!

[-] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

when you're wrong, bud, you're really fucking wrong lol

[-] Hobo@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

People wouldn't take two pictures in the same day. That would be crazy.

Why do I think he is absolutely stunning? Even with the tattoo's?

[-] MuAraeOracle@real.lemmy.fan 18 points 1 month ago
[-] unaccomplishedbottom@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

No i don't wanna fix him . I wanna fuck him then I'll be on my way

[-] match@pawb.social 12 points 1 month ago

Self-destructive tendencies?

You're a visionary

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

I dunno, he's a decent looking guy in terms of facial features. Wouldn't go as far as stunning, but I'm not attracted to men, so my perception is likely off in that regard.

[-] urquell@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Congrats on the baby

[-] stebo02@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

I'm pretty sure the girl is crying and I can't blame her
