“Do you think my tattoo is cool?” No, I don’t. There are no cool tattoos. “Check out my sleeve!” Oh god ew.

Tattoos themselves are stupid. Doubly so if it’s some media IP. “I put Batman on my body!” “Look at this image of Goku on my calf!” I can’t think of many things I’d want to do less than that.

There are a few narrow exceptions. Chances are yours isn’t one of them.

If you personally like tattoos, fine. I’m not saying nobody should get tattoos because I don’t like them. I’m stating my opinion that tattoos are stupid, and I am stating it here because it is probably not a popular opinion.

    I think you’re just reading a lot of things in my words that simply aren’t there. I’m not positioning myself as some kind of arbiter of anything, I am stating my own singular opinion, not making a sweeping judgment or declaration.

      The words you used in your OP demonstrably suggest otherwise. If you’re having second thoughts about what you posted and the venomous backlash you’re getting, I suggest not only rethinking your own nihilistic world view, but also how you describe it to others.

        The only one being venomous in this thread is you. Op shared an actually unpopular opinion, and you decided to read into it likely due to your own personal experiences.

        It’s not fair to blame op for things you’re making up in your head. Some people think tattoos are stupid, oh no! Get over it, their opinion shouldn’t matter to you anyway.
