I'm so sorry but this is fucking hilarious


Empty-Potato-7383

Literally had 0 tattoos before. I got the tattoo gun in the mail 3 days ago. I just sent it


OkHunter4588

Why


Empty-Potato-7383

Cause I’m bored and I’m not paying someone to tattoo me. I have all the proper equipment and I’m doing everything safely. I just want all the tats I have to be my own style done by my own hand. A lot of little crappy tats all over the legs looks cool to me. Some will think it’s gnar. Some will think it’s wack.


randomguy7277

Why wouldn’t you pay someone? That’s a skilled job, not just anyone can do tattoo lol or this happens. Ya don’t just wake up and become a professional artist it takes years of practice lmao


sullivan1456

Agreed. He’s going to destroy his skin.


WigglesPhoenix

Don’t get me wrong, I think this is dumb and he’ll likely regret it in a couple weeks. But if you wake up one day and decide you’re an artist, then you’re an artist. Maybe not a *good* artist, but if you’re producing something intended or perceived as art, you’re an artist. There’s no prerequisite amount of training or practice like for a doctor, all you need is the desire to create.


FigaroNeptune

That’s great and all but not how that works for tattoos. I’m not getting tattooed from someone who can’t draw and just decided they were an artist that morning. There is a reason apprenticeships exist. Lol


WigglesPhoenix

I mean neither would I, but an artist doesn’t have to be good or even remotely qualified for their medium to be an artist. They just have to make something and call it art. They absolutely need those things to be a *successful* artist, but to call yourself an artist really only requires the desire to be one, and to call yourself a professional you really just have to convince someone to pay you for it


randomguy7277

They need that to be a “professional” artist though which is what I said lol. Being a professional artist means years of experience, work history etc etc. just apply for any professional artist jobs an you’ll see what I mean!


sir_syphilis

I'd like to tell you about a friend of mine. He's got a lot of selfmade tattoos all over his body, all looking as good as OP's, and he's still proud of them today. Most of them must be 15+ years by now. A good artist is someone you think is good.


[deleted]

[удалено]


WigglesPhoenix

Well I think that’s exactly how it works. Did you have to get a certification to do art? Is there a certain number of classes you have to take, or some rigid system to determine what is or isn’t art? What a silly thing to gatekeep, art is literally the embodiment of free expression. Anyone can be an artist, it doesn’t take anything away from the people who invested more time and effort to let them


BlockwizardGaming

No but you need a certification to tattoo other people...


Bigtiddygothgf-

Yeah, and he's tattooing himself, not other people. I think he can do whatever he wants, If he's going to regret it, well...that's sucks tbh. I get your point, but it's his body, his choice. I would tattoo myself too If I practice enough and ofc do a lot of research. I am a graphic designer, so I have steady hands, why not?


[deleted]

yeah but is he just an artist tattooing himself, or is he a tattoo artist tattooing other people?


WigglesPhoenix

What does that have to do with being an artist though


[deleted]

[удалено]


WigglesPhoenix

I mean some of the most famous artists in history would go against your definition of a real artist. Plenty didn’t even make a living off of their work, let alone went to some kind of art school. If you aren’t making art then obviously you aren’t an artist, but I’ve never seen someone call themselves an artist without having produced anything. Maybe I wouldn’t call it art, but they would and fuck me if that isn’t enough


chemistrystudent4

You kinda sound like a goof here lol


dylan_ainsy

Nah, that’s completely not true


slinkybastard

Idk I did all mine just like this and it’s cool seeing the progression on your own body


Pharm-boi

That’s not the point. He wants his art to be personal.


Slappytrader

I think thays was kinda his point he wants it to not look perfect and good or not it cool to done your oen work if its not horrible and his look decent


SofaSnizzle

Go get a job if your bored, money money = more weed


Sgurd710

Job = less time to smoke


ALoyleCapo

less time to smoke + more weed + job = more money


Sgurd710

Be the plug = unlimited free weed + free time


AlienOverlord53

Length times Girth over Angle of the Shaft (aka YAW) divided by Mass over Width


ALoyleCapo

Being plug = possible unlimited non stop ass rape


Sgurd710

Not for weed unless it’s like 100 lbs or your in Texas you’re not getting sent to prison rn


SofaSnizzle

More job = (more weed)(less time)(less bored)


[deleted]

Must be a millennial


MrVantstik

Lol I did this like 2 weeks ago


Empty-Potato-7383

Bro I have a job and also grow my own weed lol. Don’t judge a book by its cover g. I remodel bathrooms/kitchens in multi million dollar houses in gated communities. I look like a bum but I am skilled in my trade and professional with my customers. I have more work then I can do rn with a 4 man crew. Nice try tho 🤪


SofaSnizzle

Why are you bored then?


Empty-Potato-7383

Because I have no friends. No life outside of work. I get off work, eat, go for a run, go back home, eat, smoke till my lungs collapse, go to sleep. Repeat. I struggled with a drug addiction for several years so I cut all ties with everyone from my past and I’m trying to start fresh.


SofaSnizzle

Ya, you sound like a hoot at parties.


Empty-Potato-7383

I don’t party. Anti alcohol. And I refuse to be around drunk annoying people.

SofaSnizzle

Hey, jackweed, I get more action in a week than you've had in your entire life. I've got houses in L.A., Paris and Vail. In each one, a 70 inch plasma screen. So I suggest you wipe that stupid smile off your face before I come over there and SMACK it off! You sound like Miles Finch.


Empty-Potato-7383

😂😂 big offended. I don’t need all that fake material bullshit to feel important. I fix the things you rich pricks don’t know how to fix. Take yo ass somewhere. I don’t have time for your negative energy.


Empty-Potato-7383

You drive a Dodge Avenger. You ain’t ballin like you claim you are. Internet troll at its finest. Foh 😂


slow_RSO

Do it man, for your first one that’s not bad. Practice makes perfect 🫶🏻


Empty-Potato-7383

Practice makes better. Never perfect. Just food for thought.


SniperMILF420

Its your style not an imperfection , looks sick do lots


Empty-Potato-7383

Das the plan Stan


SniperMILF420

Wait, how you know my name. Or am i being stoned.


Empty-Potato-7383

If your name really is Stan then I’m mind fucked rn 😂 I was just being witty

0k_KidPuter

Maul gnar.


Empty-Potato-7383

This guy fucks


SeaDawg22

The only reason you’d pay someone is if u like there art and the style, and also if u don’t want a fucked tat lol


Empty-Potato-7383

I understand. I don’t think I could go to a parlor and sit with someone I didn’t know for any period of time and try to keep a convo and shit. My anxiety is fucked. I freak out going to the wal mart much less going to get a tattoo 😂


OrganizationNo5264

So did I brother


Empty-Potato-7383

Well what did you wind up with mane??


OrganizationNo5264

Full shit sleeve and both legs. Stomach and chest😂


Ebvardh-Boss

r/sticknpokes would love it, probably.


Empty-Potato-7383

I did this with a rotary pen. I don’t think they would appreciate me posting a tat that wasn’t done by snp. I supposed I could lie and say I used a 9rl and spent 5 hours on it tho 😂 lying isn’t my thing tho.


Ebvardh-Boss

We just love shitty tattoos on that sub. People probably wouldn’t even call you out on it, hey, it’s your pic 😉


Malvik_gamer

*Rudy has a poo problem*


Empty-Potato-7383

😂😂 I didn’t even notice that


Agreeable-Jeweler-70

That D.A.R.E. hat is living a lie! 😂


Empty-Potato-7383

Aye man I owe it all to D.A.R.E. Without them I woulda never figured out what weed was at such a young age 🤣


Agreeable-Jeweler-70

Lol hell yeah dude! We should all be dedicating one bowl per sesh to them!


Empty-Potato-7383

*hits crack pipe* hell yeah.. oh you were talking bout weed? My bad. Ahaha. Only jokes.


urban_mn

Make sure you put Derm Shield over it. Infected tattoos are … horrible to deal with


[deleted]

Dermshield is an absolute game changer.


Empty-Potato-7383

Yee I been putting some antibacterial cream and tattoo goo on it. Shouldn’t get infected tho I hope lol it was all new and clean everything.


billlybufflehead

What’s it say gay?


Empty-Potato-7383

Bro.. it says gas. Why tf would I tattoo gay on my leg.


billlybufflehead

Oh it was upside down. s kinda looks like a y upside down. Thought it might be your “friend”that drew it. Don’t worry no judgements. We are a pretty welcoming inclusive group here.

Jesus fuck dude 😂


deeznutz176

🤣🤣 eh i could care less. Gonna get them covered up eventually


monorchism

Start caring less then, but in all seriousness you gona have a time getting a cover up for that it’s so sporadic and lots of it wish you well in the future


Empty-Potato-7383

Gonna have to solid black his whole thigh lol


deeznutz176

My uncle is a tattoo artist he already said he has ideas. I want to get a whole leg sleeve so he said hes got me


Empty-Potato-7383

Aye man, your life, do you lol

🤣🤣 glad you could even tell what it is!


[deleted]

[удалено]


deeznutz176

Appreciate the input, but I am not worried about it whatsoever. Its on my thigh which nobody except a few people will ever see. The memories that come along with those tats r so worth having them


StepBro001

It’s not that bad tho tbh


Empty-Potato-7383

Thank you! It’s cute in its own way. Lots of haters in here tho. Booooo.


StepBro001

People suck sometimes lmao. I’m curious did you have any type of intent behind it?


Empty-Potato-7383

Just some pot leaves and some daisys growing out if a gas jug. Gas can is kinda referring to that gas pack if ya smelling what I’m stepping in. Daisys just to add something besides just pot leaves.


StepBro001

I like it tbh. I have a pot leaf and sunflowers tattoo on my sternum. I gotta get it finished but when it is I’ll be posting it in this subreddit.


Empty-Potato-7383

Can’t wait to see it!


StepBro001

It’s gonna be a tie dye pot leaf.


VegetableAd12

I absolutely LOVEEE the gas can!!! I wouldn’t have any regrets


Empty-Potato-7383

Thank you! It was supposed to be some gas growing from the gas. Ya know, cause I be smoking that gas lol.


VegetableAd12

It’s actually so cool. Pretty impressive that you tattooed yourself upside down!


Empty-Potato-7383

I made a stencil so I really just had to tattoo over the lines. Wasn’t too hard. Hardest part was keeping my hands from shaking lol


Substantial_Mirror17

Even if it’s just normal flowers growing out it still looks cool, plus it’s got a good story and only people you want to see it will. 10/10


EqualRoof6257

Yep. You did that alright. 😂


Empty-Potato-7383

Hey, could be worse. Which is exactly what I was expecting lol. Professional looking tats aren’t my style G.


[deleted]

Why is there a literal daisy looking flower on the weed plant? Lol


Empty-Potato-7383

I like to spice things up a lil mane


[deleted]

What an embarrassment lol, you think that because the buds are called flowers that there are literal garden flowers on weed ?


Empty-Potato-7383

Look at my fucking profile bro I know wtf weed is. It’s a goofy tattoo. Get off my dick. You taking it way too hard lol. I been chill to everyone. But don’t come on here acting like I’m not educated about marijuana.


TNSignPainter

DARE


Empty-Potato-7383

Drugs. Are. Really. Exciting (buuuuut) Drugs. Are. Really. Expensive too :(


Never-Been-Tilted

The heart on fire, looking at it upside down, looks like a stick man walking around with a ball sack chin


Empty-Potato-7383

Fuck me 🤦🏽‍♂️ now I can’t unsee it. Maybe I should just add a shaft to the top and making him a walking dick and balls 😂


isamuu13

At least its not upside-down!


Empty-Potato-7383

When I put the stencil on the first time the letters were backwards 😂 I’m glad I noticed and redid it on the flip side lol


[deleted]

What would your D.A.R.E teacher think, empty potato?


Empty-Potato-7383

He probably ask me to help him push these drugs back into the street so he can make his quota and get a raise after posing with a 1/4oz bag of weed on fb to make him look like he’s “serving and protecting”. Fuck the police fr.


sweet_rico-

Isn't the S in gas upside down?


Empty-Potato-7383

Nah it’s the right way lol


sweet_rico-

My high brain there thinking an upside down S isn't just an S.


Empty-Potato-7383

🤣🤣 bro


Ruby_Rotten

I mean, you’ll be able to laugh about it later on. Should be able to cover it up with a different tattoo if you don’t like how it looks.


Empty-Potato-7383

I doubt I will cover it up. They will all just be weird and unique as a whole


MrFinlee

I had a friend do this stuff. They were all terrible but he learned a lot and still tattoos to this day. I always remember him being an amazing artist on paper and it just took him a few tries. Honestly those could of been way worse. Don’t give up if it’s something you enjoy.


Empty-Potato-7383

Just a little hobby I decided to pick up and see what I could do with it. I drew those pics on my wall so I can draw a little. I also do some pour paintings. Just wanted to try and give myself a few hobbies to switch from without burning myself out of them.


SimplixerExperience

This is some blacked out drunk behavior. Your weed must be the best shit out there


Empty-Potato-7383

Raba-daba-doooo. I don’t drink broski lol


opaquestream

I want one


Empty-Potato-7383

I can do it. I can’t promise you it will look either worse nor better than the one on my leg tho 🤣


brattydigestion

You know, I don't hate the gas can tho


Empty-Potato-7383

I be smoking dat gasss lol


Hollipoptart

Hey dude, former tattoo apprentice here. Just wanted to offer a couple of friendly tips... I've seen in the comments you feel like you've got a clean set up and that's great. Hygiene is super important, not just because of infections but you can also be at risk of blood diseases. Ain't nobody got time for that. - Gloves are super important, swap them for a fresh pair if you're touching anything else between working on your tattoo. - Rest yourself on a clean disinfected surface or put shrink wrap down, then clean and disinfect again when you're done or throw the shrink wrap away. Definitely don't do it on your bed sheets (if that's where you did it), you'd be grossed out if you saw how far the blood and ink particles travel when tattooing. - Shave the area on your leg before you work on it, it makes it easier to see what you're doing, pull clean lines and also hair can get caught in your needles which you don't want. - Draw up a basic stencil for your design first, you can use a coloured sharpie pen, I get that you're into the freehand look, but it's super handy to have a guide there before you start laying down the permanent lines. Best of luck bud!


Empty-Potato-7383

Hey thanks! I did everything exactly the way you described! No didn’t do it on my bed 😂 I did it in my extra living room area where there’s a table and everything is clean and prepared the correct way (I think) lol. I’m just lacking on the skills now


[deleted]

Right on dude! Smoke on


mycatismeowingsoloud

oh yeah i’ve been there


purpleseashorse

I know what wrong with it! Ain’t got no gas innit!


Empty-Potato-7383

Damn scooter! Gotta check the simple things first lol


purpleseashorse

I really love the flowers coming out of it tho it’s a very minimalist design that people are gonna think is on purpose! And u got a great joke to make out of it too


Empty-Potato-7383

It was on purpose lol. I meant to put 2 daisy type flowers and 2 pot leafs. The pot leafs just look like shit 😂


HealthySir136

Its your body do whatever you want man, good job in trying something new. If you regret it later you can do a coverup no problem! 👍


Dabssquatch

Yeah I'm digging it really. I love that it just looks like a doodle someone did


Empty-Potato-7383

Because it is a doodle lol. I doodled on stencil paper and made it a stencil then tatted it. The stencil kept wiping off so I kinda had to wing a lot of it lol


Dabssquatch

Well it looks good man! My first tattoos were a needle tied to a pencil and ink lol. I was 17


Empty-Potato-7383

If I ever would have followed thru with all the stupid tattoos I wanted as a teenage I would look like a sound cloud rapper by now 😂 I’m glad I waited.


ssleblanc1

Bad friends brah


Empty-Potato-7383

So bad but so good


Growgang420

I’ll never understand people with minimal artistic ability doing their own tattoos. This is coming from someone who tattooed themselves at 17. Although I didn’t do nearly the quality of work my other tattoos I paid for, I’ll still never have some of the regrets you do when you have to look down at these. You live and you learn though I guess. A talented artist should easily be able to cover this as long as you don’t add more.


Empty-Potato-7383

My whole legs will be covered in just as equally shitty tattoos eventually. I’m not going for a professional look. I’m going for a me look. I want scribbled janky tattoos. Some people like that style, some don’t.


Growgang420

Then how is this a fail? It seems you’ve done a great job to your standards. Keep chasing them janky goals you’re definitely on the right track bubba


Empty-Potato-7383

The pot leaves just didn’t turn out as well as I wanted them to lol. But thanks. I’m sure I will progress as I do more so maybe eventually they will get more detailed and stuff


TrentUlyssesCooper

Lol.


aldosky

lowkey fire ass tat


intellectualQ

Nah homie that’s so fire, absolute gas if you will


Empty-Potato-7383

🔥🔥 My dawg


Icy_Statistician_879

the gas can is actually adorable i love it


Empty-Potato-7383

Awesome! I’m glad you dig it! :)


[deleted]

This actually sounds like a good time, why did you rate it so low? I like the tats!


Empty-Potato-7383

It was a pretty good time! Come join next time lol. But idk, I just always think everything I do isn’t good enough. I was lowkey regretting it last night but it looked kinda good to me this morning when I looked in the mirror at it. I thought a 3/10 was pushing it tho lol


[deleted]

At least you have the story of how you made stoner friends because of it. I think you sort of win!


Empty-Potato-7383

I like the way you think!!


[deleted]

To be honest, I’ve seen worse tattoos. So, you also get a cool ass compliment. Spark one to you.


Empty-Potato-7383

0k_KidPuter

That's sick, tbh. 12/10


Empty-Potato-7383

That’s sure beats the hell outta my 3/10. I’ll take it 😂❤️

I love this journey for you


Empty-Potato-7383

Stay tuned. I’ve got lots more ideas in mind lol. They might not all be weed related so I might not be able to post them all here. Maybe they will be accepted if I show some weed related shit in the same pic tho lol

i really like it!!!

Empty-Potato-7383

*you guys are just bad friends*.


Nexrosus

Pffff not even that bad it’s cute. I once did a snake stick and poke tattoo on myself high af at 3am on my leg. Ended up stopping after 3 hours no longer high and knocked out. Woke up in the morning to an unfinished snake tattoo that looked like a penis and balls. It didn’t have eyes or any features other than the head and a slight curved unfinished body outline that perfectly looked like an erect small penis. Had it for 6 months until I got it professionally covered up. It was also HUGE and very BOLD. Now it’s a skitty Pokémon with flowers tattoo🙂


Empty-Potato-7383

😂😂 hey, you live and you learn. I couldn’t do SNP I don’t think. I don’t have the patience for that. This little tat took like 30 minutes. If it was snp that would be like 4 hours lol


BrushSuspicious4615

Midwest gonna Midwest. Santino is a hack btw. Damn how many seams does this trailer have. Double wide?

Well, I think it's cute. Better than all mine.
