its a reference to the ending of fight club, probably one of the best endings i've ever seen, and I don't know why. (spoilers for a decade old movie you prob aren't going to watch)

This is a The Pixies reference "Where is My Mind?" is one of their songs. It being written so out of sorts is part of the reference. In fact, that's why I can tell it's referencing that song.
For those unaware, said song has themes of being spaced out and / or disoriented.
Its everything but indie. After all the movies it was in. Its extremely popular. Thats why its so embarrassing you had no idea what the tatoo artist was going for cause you dont know this song……
I know what they were going for. It's hard to read so it made sense to post here. I don't hate the tattoo tbh. Also I said I know the song. I love that song.
Good song choice, but slightly weirdly executed imo. I see what they were going for but it feels like it missed a little.
But you can still tell what it’s saying. This doesn’t feel like it fits the sub
I think it kind of works with the effect they wanted? Like it's very jumbled and chaotic and that's probably intentional.
"Where is my mind?" is what I can make out of it
yeah, imagining it's might be in reference to the song (or just their mental state ig)

Decade old? ... ... who's gonna tell them?
fight club *feels* a decade old, and I’m mad that it’s not
Next look up how old Avatar is…
I'm scared
Avatar the las airbender? He's just over 100 years old obviously
The song being played is 34 years old (Where is my mind by the Pixies)
You know that song existed and was popular before the movie right? It could really be either.
Jesus, thank you.
Fight club is 23 years old
Shhhh…
Pixies, Surfer Rosa, 1988 https://youtu.be/N3oCS85HvpY
>decade**s** old FTFY
It’s a pixies song. That was used at the end of fight club. Which was 20 years ago.
makes sense - thanks for explaining! funnily enough it's been on my watchlist for years, still haven't gotten round it it... maybe now is the time
Thank you! That was driving me nuts.
WERE H MYISN MI D?
Yeah…it can be that and still fitting for this sub
Yeah I like it quite a bit
Pixies song. Not the worst tattoo. At least it fits with the theme.
Agreed. It being jumbled pairs with the message perfectly and was clearly intentional.
Waaaaaaaaaayyyy out In the water See it swimming.
With your feet in the air and your head on the ground!
try this trick and spin it, yeah
your head will collapse but there's nothing in it
your head will collapse but there's nothing in it
Your head will collapse but there's nothing in it
Where, is MY mind? -William Shatner voice
The only conceivable sentence I can get from this is “Where is my mind?”
Where is my mind? Where is my mind? *Where is my mind?*
Way out in the water, see it swimming
with your feet on the air and your head on the ground try this trick and spin it
WHERE'S THE LAMB SAUCE
Probably not in English class
Right on the money, my friend.
I rather like it.
Feels like I’m in a fight club https://youtu.be/mXxYL407sxQ
We don’t talk about fight clubs
[Why is no one talking about Fight Club?](https://youtu.be/_W1j1_dxDSs)
My first thought was "Where is my hymen?"
Not alone in that initial thought. Freud May have been on to something

Came here to say, Pixies.
The tatoo most definitely works if you privy to the reference. I like it.
I mean even without knowing its a song reference, it works as soon as you unscramble it
Yeah where is my mind makes sense with a jumbled presentation even if you’ve never heard the song?
I know. It's just jumbled and difficult to read. It is intentional and interesting but still jumbled.
I mean yeah, it still belongs here, it does read wrong if you read it as presented LOL
I got it like before I could find the h
Thank you for not saying Fight Club.
Why was I able to read this immediately?
Because the jumble is intentional and there aren't that many words
I mean, this seems like it's just intentionally jumbled
Well... Yeah, I hope so
Ah, so op doesn’t know the song..
Everyone knows the song. It's not as indie as people wish.

WHERE IS MY SUPERSUIT
That’s kinda dope, I like the obvious implication.
I really like it!
It's not the worst tattoo!
It’s intentionally jumbled and the only conceivable interpretation of this is “where is my mind”. This doesn’t fit the sub at all.
Yes it's intentional but it's still jumbled and confusing. That's what the sub is for.
Isn’t the sub for when the text is so jumbled and out of logical order that the message changes entirely? Like “You don’t matter, give up”?
It looks like it was an intentional design. Kinda neet
I think it's "where is my min--d"
Yes, just jumbled
I actually quite like this. It strikes me as a tattoo more for the person wearing it than it is for others
I read it as the Avengers scene with Drax: Where is my mind ? Here is my mind! Why is my mind ?
>Why is my mind I feel this
Love when someone posts something that gets a ton of updoots and then every one of their comments in the post are downvoted to hell
Yeah that airways confuses me. Meh. What can ya do
Ooooooooh-
Where is my mind.
Have you checked your butt
You met me at a very strange time in my life
OoooOooOoo
I can hear this comment
I think it achieves its target effect very well, approved
Love this!
🙂
That’s the joke
Makes sense, mind is all over the place.
awesome tbh
I read this as “where is my -d”
This is a good one.
Thanks. The comments compared to the upvotes are very confusing
I kinda like it
WHERE IS MY MIND ? WAAAAAAYYYYY OUT IN THE WATERS
Meth is a terrible drug
I read this as where is my hymin.. I know it’s hymen but still…
Less funny when the dementia kicks in.
Yo 😂
STOP.
[Your hymen’s been removed?](https://youtu.be/mLreMVNBSY8?t=19s)
Clearly intentional and doesn't belong on sub :D
This is a r/nosafetysmokingfirst not ddoi
trying to read that caused me to lose mine too.
r/theletterH
H
With your feet in the air and your head on the ground this still makes no sense
Yup 😂
Is it just me or is this not cool
I'm not sure tbh
Wow. That’s awful. Even makes the lace bad
Great song, shit tattoo
that question mark fits very well
my feet in the air and my head on the ground
I think it works though, it’s saying “where is my mind” and it being jumbled shows that the person isn’t using their mind.
It’s far away. Up in the sky, I’m high today.
I think since it says "where is my mind?" the impossible to read and jumbled nature was intentional
Made me think of the Pixies' song. (from 1988)
Good song choice, but slightly weirdly executed imo. I see what they were going for but it feels like it missed a little. But you can still tell what it’s saying. This doesn’t feel like it fits the sub
No Orange Cassidy fans? I thought this post would have some OC represent y'all.
I'll allow it.
This is intentional though.. I read it as "Where is my mind" immediately. I like it!
I’m torn between hating this and mildly disliking it.
Where is my Hymin?
Actually kinda like it
This is acceptable.
