It's a quote from Fahrenheit 451 you dummies.

And OP was obviously baiting, this isn't his arm. This tattoo is at least 4 years old and is readily found with a cursory google image search

Tattoos are nothing but a they like to think, hopeful reminder that they aren't like every other, mobile phone obsessed, Harry Potter, MCU watching social media zombie. Ironically they are doing the opposite of what they are thinking and indeed conforming to something. They think their tattoo has power "LOOK AT ME! I'M DIFFERENT!", they want it to scream but their screams go unheard and their collective individualism is crushed.

>>9424450
He trashed his point with inane arguments but there's a kernel of truth in what he said.

Tattoos are mainstream now, a lot people get them because they're popular and it has become acceptable. There used to be strong meaning behind a tattoo, nowadays it's just an accessory for most people.

He's retarded because he shouldn't care about what people choose to do with their bodies, instead of whining like a little child.

>>9424462
then get, "No seriously go with me on this, think about it: a book is like a loaded gun because xxx...." and write your explanation in detail across your back.

>>9424462

The pen is a loaded gun would've been much more fitting and poignant but he fucked up.

>>9424530
I mean it was alright. I guess at the time it was written it blew everyones nips off. Would never get a tattoo for it tho

>>9424473

Still better than getting "GAME OVER" tattooed on your fingers. I mean, how many of the people who pull the "two four-letter words across the fingers" bullshit have even seen "Night of the Hunter"? Probably none, otherwise they wouldn't do it.

I got an Infinite Jest tattoo as well.
The whole novel.
On ma dick.

>>9424376
I got my first one because I had just turned 18 and I knew it would piss off my parents. It is of a rat chewing on a biohazard sign, because I used to raise lab rats for sale to a local chemical research firm.

I got my second one when a girl who hated them kept breaking up with me and getting back together for the Cosmo drama of it all. I got it after the 5th time she pulled the shit. It is a skeletal pirate, because I love pirates, and thought it looked cool.

Both are hidden easily with a t-shirt. Very few people know I have them, but I don't regret them at all. It's an interesting experience, and a decent reminder of who I was in the past.

>>9424577
That's some 1000 angels on a pinhead tattooing, right there.

>>9424376

I got a bunch of them, that I know find to be incredibly stupid and childish.

Basically I was an insecure young man, and I thought getting a tattoo would make me edgy, cool, and badass. It didn't.

I seriously cringe every time i see them in the mirror.

I went through a phase where I felt that way about mine. But both of mine are at least 20 years old now, and I just look at them as part of my more emotional youth. They're really no worse than looking back at your early writing, and seeing how much you've grown.

>A book is a loaded gun.

Must've been a link to the audiobook
Must've been "Infinite Jest: The Whole Novel"

Pro tip: Don't get a tattoo that you think is meaningful, get one that looks nice.

>>9424019
Never get words or quotes tattooed. 99% of the time the "profound" words you get done will end up making you cringe within 3 years. 100% of the time, the tattoo will age badly and look like shit after 5 years.

>mfw I got a "deep" song lyric tattooed when I was 18 and had to pay $800 to get it covered up last year because I was sick of seeing it

"Remember, man, that you are dust and to dust you shall return."

up my arm so that every time I look at it I remember my mortality and what really matters.
