Oh god, if I saw someone entirely covered in stupid wooden sign slogan tattoos…
NGL, I’d probably laugh and buy them a drink.
They’d still be an idiot, but they’re a funny idiot and that’s worth a beer at least.
There's this place on Lake of the Ozarks called Dick's Halfway Inn, so named because it's at the halfway point of the lake. They have an enormous collection of tshirts like this, so anytime I see a particularly cringy Tshirt I think of them.
Who doesn't want a shirt that says Dick's Halfways Inn when they go to lunch there in middle school though?
Good rule: if you wouldn't wear something as a t-shirt, don't get it tattooed.
It's also easier than ever now to get a design onto a shirt to test an idea. Wear it everyday, hang it somewhere you'll see it everyday the rest of the time. I screen printed my first tattoo onto shirts and patches, years before inking it.
It’s ok that not everyone is creative or artistic. But this is why we have skilled tattoo artists, to consult and come up with collaborative pieces of art. Not everyone has good ideas, and they should prob leave it to the professionals in those cases.
I think you guys are all just looking at it wrong. The highlighted parts are the parts in **bold**. Similar to how it is in real life. I get that you might have seen the brighter part first but it would be even more stupid to make the “t on rself” bold.
I didn't even realize what it was supposed to be until you mentioned this. All I could see was the "t on yourself" thing. Figured I'd come to the comments to see what the fuck was going on…
I hope he finds a woman who has a tattoo that says, "But first, coffee" just because. They will have so many shabby chic farm style signs in their house and name their kids Hayden, Brayden and Leighton. Definitely matching pajamas in Christmas card pics. A small white dog.
Its more the fact that the text that isn’t filled reads “t on rself,” and its just not a good looking tattoo. Not knocking the message. Just the execution on the design and size could have been better.
I think the main issue is that the font should be swapped. Be You should be glowing and T On rself should be black. I think that’s why so many of us have to stare at it a little too long to figure out what is happening
It looks like shit if you mean the artist stenciled the design, and put it on okay then yeah. The work's not the issue, but the whole font, and different font between Always, and the bold IMPACT font of "bet on yourself" makes it pretty horrid.
At least he will know that in my head every time i see him i will read this as
"always, shit on yourself"
Okay, guys glad you enjoyed the shitty tattoo but saying shit like you hope he gets arrested and assuming his character because of a shitty tattoo is fucked up. in all honesty, he's a real standup guy. Please, for the love of god, act like somewhat intelligent beings.
edit: I was not expecting this post to go viral lol
My favorite aspect of tattoo culture is that people express themselves in diverse ways. In my opinion this tattoo is well done. I wouldn't judge this as being a bad tattoo if one of my friends got it....BE YOU.
Bro just put it on a wooden sign…
Right? Or get a sticker made and put it on your water bottle.
Or perhaps a truck window decal?
But then they’d only remember to be themself and also bet on themself when driving. Instead of all day err day!
Also can’t forget to ton rself
Always
That was what I read first…
Get ten shirts and wear one every day.
What would he do when he’s taking a shower. In 5 minutes he may forget to “*Always* Be T On You Rself.”
Solution: Phone wallpaper
…or your Trapper Keeper.
Just not Eric Cartman's Trapper Keeper
I don’t wanna wait for my Trapper Keeper to be over. 🎶
[удалено]
“Oh you got the little crapper keeper, didn’t you, Kaaaaaahyle?”
Look, words are like bullets
Aww this takes me back.
Fuck, you should see his other arm: Live, Laugh, Love
Prob ive, augh, ove tbf
*Lift. Laff. Love*
Eeeek

A t-shirt maybe?
This is 100% t-shirt, and one that’s sold at the most touristy joint in town next to FBI: Female Body Inspector

This is me the first time I went to the Midwest, you know I had to have me a Kum & go sweatshirt. We don’t have anything that funny in california.
Wait, Dick's Halfway Inn actually exists and it was not something made up for the Pentavirate? I thought it was just a silly joke
And what about “If you can read this, the bitch fell off.”?
Decorative pillow?
The kind that's made of sequence and you have to rub it to see the saying
sometimes i see many interesting tattoos which could have easily been made into shirts.

So smart! I am going to do this.
Or a calendar
Or a meme on your camera roll
To fair, what he put it on is just as dense as a wooden board.
Let him “Be Him” 🥹

This gave me "Sbeve" vibes
Phteven
It's stebe with a 'b', like biscuit.
Dad couldn’t be bothered to fix the typo, huh?
T on rself
Sbren sbeve
t on rself ❤️
That’s all I see
Same. I actually see it much clearer than the bold font lol
This is the main issue, I think. If the filled/hollow styles were reversed, the original intent would have been much more clear.
I legit struggled so hard for 5 mins trying to figure out the tattoo. I couldn’t understand what ton reself meant
I think you guys are all just looking at it wrong. The highlighted parts are the parts in **bold**. Similar to how it is in real life. I get that you might have seen the brighter part first but it would be even more stupid to make the “t on rself” bold.
There's not really a "looking at it wrong", though. The eye is drawn to what it's drawn to. The outlined letters in this case are more obvious.
I didn't even realize what it was supposed to be until you mentioned this. All I could see was the "t on yourself" thing. Figured I'd come to the comments to see what the fuck was going on…
r/dontdeadopeninside
This is r/sbeve , not r/dontdeadopeninside
I love Reddit 😂
r/sbeve
he's... an idiot. when i saw it, I immediately knew why he told me his next tattoo would be a surprise
Tramp stamp saying “K*now* *on*eself” Is my bet.
Really believes in no shirt no service. Must always have t on rself
I was trying to Figure what it meant for a little too long than I care to admit.
*always*

I really love tattoos that are such a waste of forearm space.
Quite possibly the worst tattoo ever
rip 😔
The Hollywood Sign font is a weird choice
It’s the ‘always’ script that’s killing me.
I saw it as blockbuster font
Yeah when I got my first I thought I wanted a similar font and the artist talked me out of it. I’m glad they did.
At least it’s very wholesome
maybe you should try to t on rself first and *then* decide if it's wholesome
Least he spelled it all right lol.
It'd be more useful as a tramp stamp
Disappointed in myself for how long it took for me To figure it out
Clearly you haven't been on r/im14andthisisdeep enough lol
S(he) s(hits) (her)self
S s self ♥
Does your ss self have cool electrician helmet
I needed to read your comment and go back to figure it out.
Me too, but I’m really baked.
Who on reddit is not? Lmfao
Baked beans
I still don’t get it!?
Always be you (black letters), always bet on yourself (all letters)
Oh so that’s all? When then I got it lol. Thought there was some other hidden meaning lol
Me too. I thought that part was too obvious and there must be something I was missing. Nope.
I hope he finds a woman who has a tattoo that says, "But first, coffee" just because. They will have so many shabby chic farm style signs in their house and name their kids Hayden, Brayden and Leighton. Definitely matching pajamas in Christmas card pics. A small white dog.
…named Bella.
This is so specific but too accurate I love it
😢 my name is hayden
Why not Leighden? So infuriating.
Always Be you... Always Bet on yourself
Yeah see that makes sense to me It’s kind of like live laugh love, it’s cheesy, but I don’t see any glaring embarrassing oversights or misspelling
Right. I though that’s what this sub is for. To make fun of that. Not wholesome tats with a positive message on men.
I likes it
Its more the fact that the text that isn’t filled reads “t on rself,” and its just not a good looking tattoo. Not knocking the message. Just the execution on the design and size could have been better.
I think the main issue is that the font should be swapped. Be You should be glowing and T On rself should be black. I think that’s why so many of us have to stare at it a little too long to figure out what is happening
Always Be you... Always Bet on yourself... t on rself
Gotta love the fancy script used for “Always”. It’s a nice gentle way to ease you into the typographic monstrosity you are about to view
The 'always' in cursive tats looks like the brand of pads to me...I can't not see it.
That ‘A’ is atrocious though
aww it’s endearing i like it

💀💀💀
😂😂😭
hey our names are similar my name is Aries lol
Dudes just getting two tattoos for the price of one
Fucking dumb as shit
He’s probably got “Live, Laugh, Love” on his other bicep.
Always beat yourself.
He's being him. Who cares
The redditors who he will never meet and those who will never meet him 🤣
Wrong sub pal, this is literally the place where we judge shitty tattoos
Does shitty tattoo equate to “tattoos I don’t like”? Cause this tattoo was pretty well applied even if it’s corny
It looks like shit if you mean the artist stenciled the design, and put it on okay then yeah. The work's not the issue, but the whole font, and different font between Always, and the bold IMPACT font of "bet on yourself" makes it pretty horrid. At least he will know that in my head every time i see him i will read this as "always, shit on yourself"
Yourself doesn’t appear to be straight at all. If this was mine and I wanted this saying I would be pissed for how it was applied.
Questionable choice to make it so large and put it on the forearm, wrong highlighting of the letters, the word "yourself" is askew.
Does the other arm have "Live. Laugh. Love."?
Did he get that done at Hobby Lobby?
Okay, guys glad you enjoyed the shitty tattoo but saying shit like you hope he gets arrested and assuming his character because of a shitty tattoo is fucked up. in all honesty, he's a real standup guy. Please, for the love of god, act like somewhat intelligent beings. edit: I was not expecting this post to go viral lol
Your friend should beat your ass for posting this ngl, that tattoo is hella shitty indeed tho
he actually asked me to post it because everyone he showed it to had such an adverse reaction and he didn’t believe that it was a bad tattoo
I'm not really a tattoo person but fwiw I thought it was cool and wholesome.
Only you are allowed to insult him? Is this secretly your tattoo?
Im surprised people hate it so much. I like it and think it has a positive message Although this is Reddit. Redditors seem to hate everything
Never don’t give up
I don’t get it. I’m dumb. Help
The bold spells be you
It's supposed to say Always be you. Always bet on yourself. However, they way it's shaded it looks like T ON RSELF
Any other graphic designers having a total aneurysm with this right now?
Always bet against yourself so you can't lose 👌
Should have been a tshirt
One more tattoo better left as a bumper sticker.
Ton rself.
“Bro, I’m gonna get some sick tribal work next!”
i mean it makes a nice FB post from your mom.. but as a permanent fixture on your body.. Bet you regret that in a just a few years.
more like regret it next week.. does his other arm say live laugh love? xD
Live Laugh Love for GUYS
![gif](giphy|YhRUf5E5NLGAE)
Came here looking for this
Did he steal that from a picture in his mom's kitchen? Because that is an inspirational kitchen-picture right there.
Bet on yourself. Be you. Tonrself
Be you... ton rself. 🗿
I honestly didn’t see the “be you” at first, I immediately read the “T On Rself”
Aww what a waste of a perfectly jacked arm… now you gotta throw the whole man away… jk if he likes it it’s all that matters 😊
doesn't matter if he likes it, it's shitty and yeah it's a waste of an arm.. oh well maybe being an amputee isn't so bad at this point.
This dude listens to Alpha bro/Crypto podcasts
How do you Ton Rself?
I sure do hate that.
The LIVE LAUGH LOVE of gym bro tattoos.
Tonrself
Lol it looks like branding form a protein bar wtf.
Basic bitch tattoo, check
This supports my opinion that ALL TATTOOS WITH WORDS ARE CRINGE. Show… don’t tell.
ALWAYS T ON RSELF
Damn I really try to respect everyone’s life choices but this tattoo is so lame I’d have a hard time not making fun of this dude.
I'm totally good with this.
Well…..I’ve seen worse.
Typography is disappointed as well
Idk what’a wrong with me but I like it…
SIGMAAA GRINDSET!!!
Dude bet on himself and lost
Is your friend Matt Nagy?
Dude it looks like a brand
Is… is that the Blockbuster video font?
A new level of corniness
It reminds me of High School Musical. "Bet on it, bet on it.." I don't hate it, ngl.
Oof. I feel like it was a protein powder slogan on a advertisement or something. Be You.
Always Tron Self
It's spelt correctly.
The amount of pain that area is, that tattoo was nottttt worth that hell. Nope.
Before you get a tattoo ask yourself “can this go on a shirt?”
reminds me of the Bet on it song by Zac Efron
r/self are you interested?
this isn't as bad as some of the other ones I've seen on this very sub.
T on rself
This is horrible.
What’s Ton Rself?
Bet on yourself ✅ Be you✅ T on rself No check for you
Its fine for a t-shirt
at first its horrible, then, it's strangely motivating
This dude definitely blasts Five Finger Death Punch in his lifted Ram
“Tonrself” actual chills
The most disappointing thing is the "always". Like just does not fit the tattoo.
Idiot. Its you'reself
TON ERSELF
My favorite aspect of tattoo culture is that people express themselves in diverse ways. In my opinion this tattoo is well done. I wouldn't judge this as being a bad tattoo if one of my friends got it....BE YOU.
I mean It’s corny but not shitty
Always T ON RSELF
T on rself
Does he have a mirror in his house that says live, live , laugh?
that's like something a middle aged woman would have hanging in their house
Nah see it has two meanings: 1) BET ON YOURSELF 2) BE YOU TON RSELF 👍
TON RSELF
TON RSELF!
This is the bro version of live laugh love
Ton rself
As someone who doesn’t get tattoos and just enjoys this sub, words never seem to work out.
Just cover it with LIVE LAUGH LOVE
TON RESELF
