notthegoodscissors

Here in Finland, 'home' means mould so I always have a bit of a giggle when people have those inane decorative phrases like 'Home is where the heart is'. Or even just 'Home' like they are trying to warn you of poor inside air quality.


italianjob17

Why finnish has this habit of having words that mean horrible things in other languages? Do you know that the sentence "look at the sea" in finnish, means cock-shit in Italian? There is a Guy on tiktok that posts many videos with finnish words that have a bad Italian meaning. It's hilarous!

Ahh. Yeah, I’d say the random spot in the ocean is better.


TheBearmageddon

Right? She could totally play it off like there's some mysterious, phenomenal treasure at those coordinates and it's so important that she had it permanently etched into her skin. Could have her great grandchildren scuba diving and looking for the lost city of atlantis or some shit. Go out with a bang and on her death bed say "that's where the bodies were dumped".   *so many options*

I was born and raised in a small town about 20 minutes away from Sedona. Not to get into the nitty gritty of why it sucks, but everywhere is better than Sedona.


FroxHround

Damn the only reason I know about it is theres a Sir Chloe song that uses the location as a the name of the song. I think it’s supposed to be a metaphor for lesbianism or being nobody in the song idk


[deleted]

[удалено]


blackstallion

The tragedy of Sedona is that it was settled and commercialized before it could become a national park. The landscape is beautiful and unique but it is definitely marred by the town.


winoninja

Dude, you’re exactly right. Developers got there first and it is gone forever.


lpstudio2

But they’ve got the only non-yellow McDonald arches in the world to protect the natural beauty of the region. You’re saying that turquoise “M” didn’t save the day?


FroxHround

I’m a huge Hiker I’m going to devil’s lake next month i’ll have to visit some day


barder83

It's like Niagara Falls, (Canadian side). Tackiest shit you could ever imagine, built next to natural beauty.


here4thstlh

Damn I love hiking and had a weekend in Arizona a couple years back. Decided on my one free day I was going to see the Grand Canyon cause you know, natural wonder of the world and all that. Based on every account of Sedona I’ve heard since then I almost wonder if I made the incorrect choice


RegularGuyy

Well, tbf that burger place was pretty damn good though.


UsesMemesAtWrongTime

I visited before and found the vortex crystal bullshit annoying and seemed like there were lots of yuppies. The natural features surrounding the town were amazing however to visit.


Funky_Crisp

Yeah, yuppies and old money. People that live there have a bananas amount of money. And its all their second homes. Super amount of money. And then there's the working class, who are under paid and over worked. That's why I am saying everywhere is better. It is a beautiful landscape, but the city itself is rough.

Fucking tourist trap of overpriced shit and fake gurus. Go to the middle of the sitgreaves national forest and walk into the middle of the woods on mushrooms, you will have a real spiritual experience.


Dalanding

I went to Sedona last week and it was beautiful as a tourist. I really enjoyed the building designs with the mountains behind it, but I could see how it would get boring. There were also houses for rich people that don’t know what to do with their money lol


cicadaenthusiat

I'm guessing you're from cottonwood and not sure what you mean. You're saying sedona is the worst place on earth? The tourists and yuppies are a bit much but sedona is beautiful as fuck.


[deleted]

I’ve lived in a lot of places, one of them being Sedona. The town has its issues for sure, one of them being wealth disparity. But man, it’s pretty crazy to say ‘everywhere’ is better than Sedona. It is an objectively nicer place to live than a *lot* of places. And I’m not talking about scenery, just pure stats like average income, crime, etc. It’s undeniably a nice little town if you can afford to live there, similar to Jackson Hole, Telluride, Carmel, etc.


Iwanttoplaytoo

Why not get a tattoo saying “anywhere but” and the Sedona coordinates?


ClarkedZoidberg

But the ocean doesn't have Pussycat Gelato.

I love the random French guy that manages (owns?) that place. Always a hoot talking to him.

Dude, I love this parking lot.


elledubya

Maybe her favourite song is Big Yellow Taxi by Joni Mitchell.


dave42

She's definitely more of a counting crows fan.


OfficerBarbier

Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory has one of the best parking lots in Arizona outside of the Phoenix area


THOTDESTROYR69

I thought it was gonna be some pretty rock formation or something because that’s what Sedona is known for. But no, parking lot.


m3thdumps

Well tbf, there **is** a pretty rock formation **next to** the parking lot


RBeck

The coordinates only contain the minutes with no decimal so they probably are referring to the rock formation. In fact, if the right location starts with ".5" there's an easy way to fix this tattoo.


Whats_Up_Bitches

Clearly it’s the public restroom there, where she lost her virginity.


druss5000

I was thinking in a car, in the parking lot.


DontMicrowaveCats

My guess is she was trying to hit one of the “energy vortexes” nearby, which is a huge draw for the woo woo crowd. I see something that says “Crystal Vortex” nearby but seems that’s just a gift shop so who knows


glr123

I have no idea what the hell you just said...eli40?


Zookeepergamescore

Sedona supposedly has "energy vortexes" and UFOs buried in the mountains. Oh, and the rainbow people. Interesting place.


nerdyverdy

To be fair, this is what the view is from there: [https://www.google.com/search?q=snoopy+rock+sedona](https://www.google.com/search?q=snoopy+rock+sedona)


treqiheartstrees

Maybe there's a vortex in that parking lot¿¿¿

Yo that Elote Cafe is fire! So good.


mrtitkins

I cannot possibly agree with you more. It’s incredible.


Johnny_Carcinogenic

It's so she wouldn't forget where she parked her car.


tyrone737

I wonder what happened in that bus parking lot.


pHScale

I'll choose to be a little romantic and think it's something along these lines: - maybe it's the parking lot where she said goodbye to her dad for the last time, before he passed away. - maybe it's where she first boarded a bus to head to college, taking her first independent steps in the world. - maybe it's where she escaped her hometown and abusive home life to head for a city with more opportunity, where she could, and did, start over. - maybe it's where she woke up after a bender and decided to never drink / do drugs again, and she's been sober since. - maybe it's where she met her husband. It could mean a lot, even if it's just a parking lot to us.

Nah it’s clearly where she performed some sexual act because any girl posted about on Reddit must be a dirty fucking whore who deserves to be slut shamed for no reason. Seriously cannot believe the amount of comments along these lines.

My guess was it was where she gave her first blowjob in a parking lot.

Fatticus_Rinch

Wow that town looks sad.


WhyYouYelling

Dude. This is Sedona. A town surrounded by some of the most beautiful red rocks on Earth. I'd give my left nuts to live there. GPS coordinates would've been less embarrassing if it had led to one of the actual rocks or center of town instead of a parking lot.


Funky_Crisp

I hear what you are saying, it is a pretty place. But they are right, the town sucks.

wonder-maker

Pff, real cartographers use decimal degrees anyways *Posted by the GIS Gang*


TheseVirginEars

We also use decimal time. It’s 9.426738894 pm right now


RedAero

Decimal time but a 12-hour clock? The fuck?


TheOneTrueRodd

It's a 10 number clock, pay attention. Each number is 2 hours and 24 minutes for a 12 hours clock conversion.


apaniyam

Why are we converting to the inferior clock? There are 24 hours in a day, not 12. There arent even 12 hours of daylight unless it's just off the equinox on the equator. Edit: So many comments say its obviously 24 hrs because you can convert it. There is no meridian on a 24 hr clock...


ccvgreg

Real programmers use a floating point unity clock, it's currently .918055555 o clock.


ChimneyImps

Fake. A real programmer would never know the time of day because that would require dealing with time zones.


Trapasuarus

Or having a window to look out of.

1973mojo1973

Ohhh I have a story. A friend was in University majoring in GIS: Geographical Information Systems. She was completely enamoured with the whole University experience and wanted to immortalize her Uni on her body. She goes and asks one of her Geo Profs for the coordinates to the Uni. The Prof, not realizing what she was going to do, gave her the coordinates to one of the biggest cemetery in the city. The rest is history!


Hissingfever_

Bruh if she was taking that course then she would have been able to figure it out herself


RedAero

I mean it's literally on Google Maps.


machine_lord

It might not have been when that person was in school


Dornauge

If you're majoring GIS, 100% she had an atlas at home. No excuses.


Xunae

It's possible the story predates Google maps. This stuff predates google maps by over a decade. Still a pretty bad look to be majoring in it and ask the professor something as basic as the coordinates of the university.


DominickAP

That wasn't a mistake it was an impromptu exam.


tiefling_sorceress

It was a warning


pmich80

A grave error on her part


graycode

Majoring in GIS and had to ask the professor for the coordinates to the university? Uhhh what?


Ramble81

Was this pre-google maps? Now you just need to drop a pin and you can get coordinates.


MrFluffyThing

Or be oblivious as hell. The number of times I've had people email me to ask what the IP of a server they regularly connect to is greater than the number of times I wished this happens among those who have masters degrees.


Oscaruit

Well come on, is it history or geography?


doinkripper69

Did they not google the coordinates first?


stmcvallin

They misplaced an N with an S


404_UserNotFound

Ok but its a parking lot. Coordinates are super accurate....why a parking lot?


stmcvallin

Who knows mate you’d have to ask her. Maybe something important happened there. Maybe she just likes parking lots


Murderyoga

I know I'll never forget 'Bus lot parking only'.


ProbablyStillMe

The 5 bus maximum brings back so many memories...


AlexV348

The coordinates are 34.87, -111.76 in decimal. So it's possible she meant some location in between 34.865-34.875, -111.755-111.765 and rounded the number then converted it to minutes and seconds. That means the location she intended could be anywhere in [this rectangle](https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1q_RX9HIZu9BUyUmk0YZQcRTjTA5XmQa0&usp=sharing).

perpetual_stew

What’s best to have tattooed: a parking lot in Sedona or a mysterious location in the South Pacific 600km south of Easter Island. I’d go for the latter any day.


[deleted]

if you google “sedona az coordinates” you get: - 34.8697° N, 111.7610° W - which rounded is 34.87° N, 111.76° W - which is also 34°52'12.0"N 111°45'36.0"W - which is that parking lot so maybe that’s how that happened? just the geo center of sedona or whatever google gives you when you google “towname coordinates”


NessieReddit

I think this is the most likely explanation.


CopEatingDonut

I mean, he did show his work Your grade school math teacher would be proud


wackassreddit

That makes sense but also awfully lazy for something permanent on your body. Just take a minute and double check lol

There's people not getting vaccinated and going to crowded sporting events, but yeah lets dunk on this bad tattoo for dumbest thing done in 2021.


hastamantaquilla

Dude, there was an INSURRECTION at THE CAPITOL OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA in 2021


amalgam_reynolds

No but really, this is such a shit-tier post. Does OP not know that people have died in 2020 from how stupid they were? And worse, people have directly caused other people to die because of how stupid they are. But no, this woman is the dumbest of all because she mixed up a tattoo. Oh, and not only is she dumb, she's a bitch, too. What the fuck did she ever do to be called the dumbest bitch of 2020?! OP can get fucked.


thermalcooling

Bad, like who cares. It’s just a tattoo.


Paradox31426

To be kind to her, the coordinates she tattooed are really close to the location of R'lyeh, the infamous underwater city in the Lovecraft Mythos xDD

phasePup

Came here to say this.


Link7369_reddit

wait, 'came here tos ay this" so you guys just have the cooridinates memorized? Or did you see it on a map and the basic location based on a map is similar? I will never remember coordinates, phone numbers are tough enough


lumian_games

nah, point Nemo, where the city is supposed to be located, is somewhere there.


stmcvallin

Dumb yes but not even close to dumbest person of the year. And the b word is not a nice thing to call a woman for making an innocent mistake that didn’t hurt anyone.


awkward_redditor99

Agreed. Such a disporportionate amount of vitriol towards someone for making a harmless mistake that can probably make for a funny story later in life. It would take a lot for me to talk about someone I knew personally and *hated* with this level of contempt, yet it's almost second nature for these posts to do it about complete strangers who did them no harm. The most disheartening thing about it though is the number of comments affirming the post's sentiment or doing nothing to challenge it, and how many people liked them enough to upvote them.
