The coverup tattoo of the Swastika tattoo is another Nazi homage with Windows88. 88 is shorthand for HH, the first H is Heil. Sick stuff.

[@MurphysLawyer99]

Came here to say the same. Not a personal growth thing, just a different dogwhistle that will maybe go unnoticed with more people than the swastika

[@ABirdWithNoName]

I wondered about that. Glad someone else noticed.

[@rinkuraku5251]

Yeah, if this was a person who genuinely changed, great for them. But the 88 shows no, they were just trying to be more subtle, but still believed it.

[@hawkeyescoffee6399]

I thought the 88 was already there, and they then added the "windows" at the same time as the "cover up" attempt because it was the only thing they could come up with. They either have an infection or an allergic reaction to the I know or second skin or whatever the used over it. But that makes it hard to tell if the 88 was done at the same time or not. I do hope they have changed their ways. But if they have it makes me sad that they made such a mess in an attempt to cover it. Especially when there are some tattoo artists out there who will do amazing cover ups for free, as long as you are genuine in your growth.

[@hollystop]

Sick in a bad way*

[@thecraziestcrayon]

Tattoos like this are just teaching me to not let an artist freehand. You see the sketch before they put it on you. Don't cheap out on something that's gonna be on you forever

[@HumbleWooper]

^ I'll add to this, don't feel bad to say no (politely) if a sketch isn't up to the standard you want. Even if it means losing a deposit for the work they've done drawing it up. 99% of artists who are this far off from being able to match a reference pic know it, and if they're any sort of professional they'll accept your refusal gracefully. (Especially if you don't fight them on the deposit.) "Wasting" a deposit is better than losing the money and time it'd take to get the thing removed or covered later.

[@Resilient_Sage88]

Not me shaking my head in horror at Shaaba's optimistic guess of the 'first kiss' paragraph being about a husband. 🤣 Also the 88 doesn't make that cover up better because it's a common code amongst people who would get the original tattoo in the first place which absolutely sucks as a 1988 baby 😩

[@LittleKittiesBigWorld]

Yeah I was just about to comment this so they're aware, 88 is a code for heil Hitler (the letter H being the 8th in the alphabet). I hope Jamie and Shaaba see this ❤ (but guys please don't feel bad, it's not your fault you didn't know)

[@animeartist888]

I wasn't born in 88, I just like the number. Basically all of my account names have "88" in them somewhere and I am SO ANGRY that it's become a hate symbol.

[@manaash4316]

As a fellow 1988 baby, I feel this. Glad I never did an email address with my birth year when I was young and didn't know any better 😂

19:00 Considering that says Windows 88 under the thing, I don't think the person really cares that much about covering that particular symbol. 🤔

[@AStitchTooFar]

not sure the symbol cover up was done for the reasons we hope, 88 is a number with a certain significance

[@dasani.like.the.water.]

Exactly what I was thinking. That’s why it’s a good idea to learn about these bigots dogwhistles, gotta know your enemy

[@rachelwade5369]

It definitely is that reference. 88 isn’t a version of Windows.

[@binglemarie42]

I'd like to add my two cents to the doody stain vs period stain debate. I can see what Shaaba is saying about us looking at the front of the undies (pants), and I've gotten high period stains like that when I placed a pad too far back, or just didn't wear one that was long enough to cover both front and back. This would happen really easily overnight if you're a stomach sleeper.

[@Link-dx1lx]

For the eye tattoo, honestly if the tattoo artist is willing to (try to) copy an existing tattoo design that's a big red flag. Don't ask for someone else art, it's bad etiquette. And if a tattoo artist offers to copy someone, go somewhere else.

[@33melonpaws77]

Yes, isn't it better to check local tattooist's portfolios and find someone doing a similar style? "Hey I'm after a colour tattoo with a make-up eye and a galaxy background, I've seen you do both those elements really well" point to THEIR portfolio examples "Can we do something like that for me?" Bring your own basic sketch as a guideline and see what the artist draws up for you. Don't bring in someone else's work and be like "ink this, you human printer", 'cause you're insulting both tattoo artists involved. At best they'll agree and give you an identical copy of art that belongs to someone else's skin, but what's most likely is you'll be getting an inferior piece. Because if the copying artist doesn't care about stealing, it means they have no reputation (skills, style, standards) to uphold, and chances are they won't care about what they do to your skin either. If the tattooist doesn't care, beware, beware, beware!

[@emilyjohn2034]

Even if you ignore that the artist should know their capabilities and be honest about not being able to do something outside of their ability

[@kmart1396]

The way I someone from Massachusetts realized instantly that Ariel tail is meant to be CAPE COD! For those not from the States, y'know that hook looking thing that sticks out of one of the states in the North East of the USA, yeah it's that......still severely butchered when it comes to the shape of the coastline, but ummm that's 100000% Cape Cod!

[@kelpiekit4002]

Now in my head cannon for Lord of the Rings when Gandalf shows up again after the Balrog he's now sporting that chest. I mean these wizards are meant to be pretty powerful and yet we're left to believe they never used their powers to let their long, silken beards flow across magically, voluminous cleavage. Plus, it makes sense for them struggling to identify him at first. "Who is this random person in the forest?" "My eyes are up here gentlemen" "Oh, Gandalf!"

[@zaidebrown8308]

The tail in the Ariel tattoo is definitely trying to mirror the outline of Cape Cod in Massachusetts, it’s not exact but the larger features of the Cape are definitely there

The funniest part about the cross tattoo is that, if you're wearing most typicaly upper body clothes, most of it won't be visible and there will just be this block of wood sticking up inked onto the nape of your neck with no context.

[@aljoshablu]

@18:45 might I add that there is no Windows version 88, and that the number 88 is being used by neo-n@zis as code for "HH" meaning the n@zi salute. so this is probably someone who used henna as a joke to cover a n@zi symbol with n@zi code. the latest would also not fall under the current version of the "Wiederbetätigung"-law of Germany and Austria, and therefore would be legal to have as a tattoo.

[@Eco_Hiko]

As someone who has their ankle tattooed, I can understand why there's minimal shading on the shoe one. Also scar tissue effects tattoos and some artists don't work over that. Just putting it out there ;

[@meepmoopiethe3rd]

As someone who has gotten a crap tattoo from someone who was apparently stealing other peoples' photos and saying she did them, if it's going really poorly you just stop that whole appointment. She was like 2 hours in and I told her she needed to not to any more or it would be impossible to get fixed. She asked what needed fixing. I said the entire tattoo looked like something I drew in grade school. Shaky lines. Inconsistent shading. That kind of thing. And she was horribly insulted, but that's no my problem when you're advertising really solid art and delivering rancid garbage. But I got it covered up by one of my favorite artists in town, so now I have a cool bat on my hip instead of the nonsense lines the other person decided to go with. You don't necessarily have to be mean or aggressive, but it's your body. If someone is doing something and you realize it's trash, you can and should nope out of that asap. The less that has been done, the easier it is to fix. Also, research ya dang artists! Situations like mine nonwithstanding, most people post their work to Instagram. Go through their photos. See if they even do what you're looking for. If not, find another artist. Send them a message asking if they've done similar if you're unsure. But also, any artist worth a crap will tell you no if you ask for something they're not comfortable doing. I had a tattoo planned with a guy with 100k followers on Instagram refund me my money because I got to him and the design he'd drawn up didn't look on my arm how he wanted it to. Which sucked, but I feel more comfortable going to someone who will deny work if they don't think it represents them well over someone who says they can do anything (they can't).

[@krydala7650]

uuufff...the first one, the eye.. maybe OP is lucky and the color will fall out, hand tattoos are hard to get to stick and honestly in this case that's probably a blessing. Holy crap. I am working to become a tattoo artist myself some day, often feeling like my art skills just aren't there yet but these works honestly give me hope that if someone who draws like THAT can get someone to say "sure tattoo me!", then I should be JUST fine. x'D

[@emilyjohn2034]

Not gonna lie if a guy I was dating for less than a month got a tattoo of my name I think I would be reconsidering the relationship. As cruel as that sounds it’s a very strange thing to do so early on it feels a little obsessive. Also I hope he got her permission I hate when people get someone’s name tattooed without asking it’s a very strange position to put someone in. A lot of partners wouldn’t be comfortable with it

I eventually plan to have both arms covered in patchwork sleeves of the nerdy stuff I enjoy & hobbies.

If she seems like she’s gonna be cool with it, just sit her down and tell you you’ve got something that’s very important to you to tell her. If she reacts weirdly to the conversations, you know she’s not safe to tell. You never HAVE to come out to anyone, especially if they’re gonna treat you bad but this way you at least get an idea of how she may react.

So, for the "mother" tattoo paragraph, I think it might have been okay if it was going for the vibe of "Love You Forever," by Robert Munsch, where it's literally just about a mom always being there to comfort her son, and in turn, he reflects that same form of comfort for his aging mom and his newborn daughter. But because the "first kiss, first love, first best friend" will automatically invoke this reaction of "is this about a partner, oh shoot, no it's 'I am my son's priority'," it unfortunately tumbles into toxic boy-mom territory.
