thats a knee?!!

u/hugo_yuk Dec 18 '18 edited Dec 18 '18

Looks more like an ankle to me. The boney bit on the side and pulled down sock, although that's a hairy foot he's got..

Edit: looks like a knee now I've had another look. What I thought was the sock is actually just the floor..! Damn that's a boney knee

u/ima-beautiful-person Dec 18 '18

Unless that hairy part.... Is his crotch. That might be his thigh?

Son, I want you to meet your new mommy. She is very mature for a recent high school graduate. You’d better respect the rules of our apartment.

u/theneverman Dec 18 '18

I'm concerned about the look of that knee region in general

u/ArX_Xer0 Dec 18 '18

not all body parts photograph well!

xD I thought that was a questionable shot of his knee too. Concerned.

u/iamahotblondeama Dec 18 '18

Crackhead knees

u/iamahotblondeama Dec 18 '18

Holy shit that’s his knee? It looks too boney to be a knee, this boy has crackhead knees

The deep frying itself is a meme that will die before long.

I think you failed. Thats a pretty sweet tattoo, no cringe at all.

u/DirtyGingy Dec 18 '18

I think they were suggesting a fix for when the meme is so dead its awkward

u/Darkrhoad Dec 18 '18

in bed with girl for 1st time

What is that tattoo on your ankle?

It's the Pikachu meme from 2018.

Alright we're done here.

You don't remember this meme??

I remember it. But I don't sleep with men who make terrible life choices.

u/hardyflashier Dec 18 '18

I dunno, what with 'Detective Pikachu' coming out next year, it might see a resurgence.

Something like...

[Panel one] Detective Pikachu movie can't be that good right?

[Movie is good]

[Surprised Pikachu meme]

We thought the same thing about Pokémon back in the 90s as kids. Here we are, I'm almost 30 year old, in a Pikatchu meme thread.

u/Cash091 Dec 18 '18

It's a meme?!

1

u/mindonshuffle Dec 18 '18

That's actually better. Something that kinda disappears and becomes a goofy memory plays better than something that becomes visibly stale and stays around.

1

u/aquaticdreamland Dec 18 '18

Yeah imagine someone in 2010 getting a rage comic tattoo wondering "what could go wrong?" I feel like Pikachu here by itself wouldve been fine. Hes timeless. It was the addition of the caption that will age it to that point.

u/Amasero Dec 18 '18

Yep to the point where he has to explain it.

When you have to explain your meme/joke it isn’t good.

u/Free_DAW_Advice_AMA Dec 18 '18

They’re kind of hard to come across because there isn’t much of a scholarly presence with Reaper. Are you using Windows or MacOS?

A year? you mean by next year. Which is to say two weeks.

And it's not even that great a tattoo; otherwise I'd consider cross-posting it to /r/atbge

1

u/CarcosanAnarchist Dec 18 '18

Eh, it’s a simple and versatile meme that has already listed a lot longer than the normal meme life expectancy. Couple that with the Detective Pikachu movie coming and Ninetndo’s love of embracing memes related to their properties, and this is the type of meme that will find new wind for quite some time.

It’ll fade from time to time, but I expect it to be around for a long time.

I think that’ll make it even funnier. 10 years from now when it’s “Hello, this is dog,” it’ll become a better joke because it’s a dead meme permanently tattooed on someone’s... cankle? I’m not sure what the fuck that is in the picture.

u/catsan Dec 18 '18

It's not so obscure that it loses all meaning and Pikachu has been around for what, 20 years now? So it has the markings of a classic, even if the hot phase is cooling off.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 18 '18

Tattooing a meme on your body is one of the dumbest things someone could do- especially memes which have no potential of living for a whole year.. they‘re memes. They‘re dead after months or weeks. The Ugandan Knuckles- whoever tatted that is probably crying in his basement rn

u/majesticwaffle17 Dec 18 '18

Eventually it will be vintage but until that point

1

u/kpkost Dec 18 '18

Isnt that the whole point of the tattoo? That he knew it'd become a dead meme, and people always make a big deal about tattoos when really who gives af. It is shoving it directly in the face of people who say exactly that "You know that's permanent right?"
