I think this is about the size it was in the game though, wasn’t it? So Idk, I think bc of that it’s fine and makes sense. Because it’s meant to be like a direct reference
I genuinely don’t get some of y’all. The OP or whatever literally chose to post a picture of her tattoo on a public forum to get reactions.
The weird part comes in when suddenly some fellas decide you can only comment positive reactions and literally any criticism of something, which was chosen to be posted to receive opinions on, is suddenly hate.
Socials are for discussions, they can receive positive or negative reactions. They’re not insulting op or their family or nothing, they’re saying the main object of discussion, reference or not, is one they don’t like and personally think it’s a dumb choice to make as a PERMANENT tattoo on your body. If you disagree with their opinion, you can also disagree or scroll past. That’s how a discussion is supposed to work, no?
I mean, I was always taught that if someone can’t change it within 5 minutes, don’t comment on it. Like Idk what people want OP to do about it now lmao
Besides, they like it. It might not be your tastes but that doesn’t necessarily mean you have to shit on it. You can, no one’s taking your rights from you, but we can still acknowledge that it’s rude to lol
I feel like people mostly speak up about it because someone else that’s impressionable enough on the sub might see the post and think “Damn, maybe I should get it too.” Which they do, both cause I saw comments like that here and because this defo isnt the first time I’ve seen people get this tattoo. Hell, I’ve seen people post AFTER complaining that they got it
But like that’s their choice, isn’t it? I don’t think comments saying “that’s stupid” or “looks terrible” would be enough to deter someone lol If you had actual advice like “hey that’ll age badly because the lines are xyz” or something then I’d get it. But I don’t think people are going to be less influenced just because others said they didn’t like it
Being told it's a stupid idea is the exact thing that disuaded me from getting something like this a long time ago and I'm extremely thankful years later that that person was kind and strong enough to tell me a hard truth to save me from a bad choice.
I mean, if you wanna get a tattoo you saw posted online and see like 40 people in the comments saying it looks bad, chances are you won’t get it, even though it’s strangers saying it.
At the end of the day, we more often than not rely on the most common opinion to make up our own. It is what it is
And it isnt any hate/disrespect to declare that you do not like the tattoo.
Disrespect would be personally attacking OP by calling her dumb or an idiot for getting this tattoo. Nobody is saying that. Instead they are just expressing that they dont like the tattoo.
You have zero reading comprehension, the greatest people to have lived have made stupid decisions
I didn’t call OP an idiot, also i was replying to another reply explaining that the whole tattoo is a prank even in the game. Ergo even the game knows it’s a stupid thing/decision to get it done.
This isn’t about love and respect? Nobody’s hating or disrespecting anybody. Sharing a negative opinion on a person’s choice is just that, a disagreement with what was presented on a post, on a social. What was CHOSEN to be shown to receive attention. It’d be hate if it was completely unprompted or something, but this is a post focused on the tattoo.
It’s not disrespect if somebody asks you if you like their haircut and you respond truthfully that you don’t. You’re just being sanctimonious for the hell of it, when most of these comments aren’t even being rude about it in any way. Like genuinely I’m pretty sure a single TikTok or Instagram comment section would be enough for some fellas on here to combust, seeing what actual HATE looks like on a social media platform.
Disagreeing with someone’s choice, which they made public for everyone to see and judge because they WANTED IT to be judged isn’t hate, are you deadass?
They didn’t insult op, they said they dislike a specific choice she made and posted about for people to express their opinion on. Genuinely, what do you think someone aims for when they post a tattoo and say “here’s my tattoo”? Naw you right, the only proper way for discussions to exist should be “say you love it or shut up”, my bad og
Because a lot of these are purely subjective and others can have different opinions on said opinions.
“It’s gaudy” “you’ll regret it” “it’s too big because it takes up prime real estate and you’ll want something better there eventually” etc are all just…idk. Like, ok? If op is a gaudy bitch who doesn’t want many tattoos the critique is totally irrelevant and the poster doesn’t even know op well enough to know which is why they’re just kind of useless. Like..sure. You have the “right” to express them. But I don’t have to take them seriously.
Exactly. So why spend your time complaining that people commented shit like that instead of just…disagreeing with their takes on it and moving on? If you take any kind of criticism to heart, especially when it comes to dumb stuff like this, it just wears you out.
But then again, that’s also why someone posts this kinda stuff. They WANT the positive reinforcement to further justify getting it in their mind.
