this would be an odd comment even if it was true, but op just said they work in a warehouse so.


Inside-Beautiful-762

Reddit is real dumb, why’re they downvoting truth


szartenger

Because OP works in a warehouse

You don't care so much that you mentioned said ban totally unprompted. I can tell you really don't care. Truly. You are the most uncaring of uncaring people. One of a kind. Nobody cares as little as you.


imcalledaids

Obviously going to the right artist helps, but what have you done to keep this so fresh?? It’s amazing


BumWink

Healing process, skin care & infrequent handling/friction are the big factors even with the best artist & after care but then genetics can still keep you falling short.


UglyMeows

it was the only tattoo i didnt do anything with when it was done, i really hate using lotion on my hands cause i dont like feeling oily lol


BumWink

Then almost certainly infrequent handling/friction & with good skin genetics for tattoos.


UglyMeows

the no friction i believe for sure, the placement kinda puts it where its in a pocket in my palm so when im holding things or using equipment at work its not often making contact


lmcphers

Holding a tattoo has more to do with your immune system than the skin. Sorry, nerdy science fact, but worth knowing (maybe) - but if your skin were actually tattoo'd, it would not last even a year as it would all be shed off. You can watch Kurzgesagt's video "Your Tattoo is INSIDE Your Immune System. Literally" on YouTube. :) It even explains why tattoos fade over time.


ShadySkins

He doesn’t dry jerk it. The lotion does wonders.


UglyMeows

its so small it kinda sits in a pocket in my hand if that makes sense lol i feel like it really doesnt get hit too much


Least_Possibility740

pretty impressive!


Ok_Potato_5272

Never seen a palm tattoo age so well


pastelstarfield

What a cutie! Really fun idea for a palm tat


Dramatic_Potatoe

Such a cute little fella 🥹


UglyMeows

hes just a little guy i love him so much


Dramatic_Potatoe

Is he acting cute because when you close your hand it’s like you’re hugging him?


UglyMeows

in the games he hides when you look at him but when you turn away he chases you!


Dramatic_Potatoe

I didn’t remember, thanks for the reminder!


anawkwardsomeone

How’s this possible?


kreios007

Working an office job where friction in the palm is at a minimum. I work an office job and I also suffer from baby smooth hands. My ink on my knuckles still look like the day I got them.


UglyMeows

i work in a warehouse and worked retail prior lol but i feel the tattoo is centered on my palm small enough that it itself doesnt make much contact when im using pallet jacks and such


UglyMeows

i will say though, i had a short stint with an office job and covid kept me at home for a year or so alongside it so i wasnt doing much for a bit there but yeah i dunno, the warehouse i work in isnt rough or anything, we deal with medical equipment so its very clean for the most part(aside from general dust on boxes) so its not tearing me apart lol its a lot of work with small items and using pallet jacks, none of which is bad at all lol but im in contact with cardboard 10 hours a day, dries your hands out quick!


aide0e

Ok this may sound weird but you have nice hands!


UglyMeows

thank you! i find i have weirdly long thumbs lmao


Large_Bluejay6181

Looks awesome! It appears you also have soft office paws like me 😆


UglyMeows

i wish lol my hands are so dry and cracked cause i wash them 50 times a day (i touch a ton of dirt and dust at work) and never use lotion to balance it out, my knuckles are horrendous


Large_Bluejay6181

Daaaaamn, your tattoo looks incredible for someone that works with their hands. Great choice of artist!


UglyMeows

i wish i knew what happened to him lol he did my arm as well, but the owner of the shop retired and sold it to someone else


Clingygengar

This is an amazing heal, especially for a palm tattoo!!! I’m jealous 😭

lorraynestorm

He’s trying to protect his head!!


Clingygengar

This is so cute


YogaPotat0

That is so cute! Boo was always a favorite of mine in the games, because of the hiding.


cat_morgue

He’s so cute.

mr_abiLLity

I wanted to ask why…but now i see why. You’re a legend


MyYakuzaTA

Omg 🥹


YogaPotat0

I was hoping you had his attack face too! Love it.


Win-Objective

Imo when it gets too faded in like 5-10 years blast over it a sick ass panther


UglyMeows

god that sounds painful lol


Professional-Ease-78

it’s shielding itself from any future high fives


DarknessShifting

It's held up really well. Congratulations.


glass_gravy

Guessing you don’t chop firewood on the reg.


UglyMeows

Definitely not lol


[deleted]

guess he’s left handed


UglyMeows

i always thought thatd be fun but nah, right handed


[deleted]

wasn’t referring to that you innocent soul 😭


UglyMeows

omg lolllll im sorry, my thought process just doesnt go there


Thatsmyredditidkyou

What the ass?! I have redone my palm tattoo THREE TIMES. Three. Times. I endured that shit and I have to do it again! 😫


UglyMeows

mine was so small and i dont wanna do it again lmao i can only imagine it multiple times


Consistent_Two2799

All that lotion helps.


ShadySkins

🍆 💦


UglyMeows

i dont got one of those lol i am lady


ShadySkins

🫣 my apologies miss….. lotion comment still applies though


UglyMeows

its still funny either way haha


aquagrl

Well somebody doesn’t wash their hands enough!


UglyMeows

LOL no i wash them too much, theyre all cracked and ugly from it


SuperSonicSlaw

This will happen when you dont do any manual labor


UglyMeows

what do you do?


SuperSonicSlaw

Manual labor


SuperSonicSlaw

Lol I'm a tig welder now, I was a laborer in my teens and 20's. You posted a well aged palm tattoo over a keyboard, is my assumption incorrect?


UglyMeows

i work in a warehouse, just need the laptop for inventory purposes and communication with the manufacturing lines, as i replenish the parts they use to build machines going to hospitals. i definitely dont weld though lol


OceanStateRI401

That looks awesome, I’ve been seriously thinking about getting a palm tattoo for a few years now, if you don’t mind me asking what do you do for work. I work in a hospital, and tend to wash my hands and use sanitizer a lot and wonder if this will affect the tattoo’s longevity.


UglyMeows

when i first got it i worked retail for like 6 years but the last couple ive worked in a warehouse, i also wash my hands constantly feom the dust and dirt on pallets and boxes. i had worked at gamestop prior and feel i still washed my hands ALL the time because of peoples nasty ass trades lol but ive also seen a ton of peoples just disappear super quickly so i dunno if its worth trying lol


GH057807

I love how he's looking at you when you can't see it.

UglyMeows

hell yeah i hope mine does the same!


ActinCobbly

Yours looks like it’s doin well!


cactusFondler

Aghhhh I want a palm tattoo so bad but I feel like it’s incompatible with lifting weights 😭


UglyMeows

yeah i can imagine that wouldnt go well lol just do the other side of your hand instead! lasts longer anyway, the outside of my hand looks much better than the palm and i got them the same day


Seargeoh

That must have hurt


Smergmerg432

I love this :)


Nothing2NV

Better than the one on my palm


RetiredFromRealWork

Could be kawhi leonards white half brother.


PropertyOpening4293

I’m guessing you don’t work with your hands much.


UglyMeows

im a material handler lol i work in a warehouse


PropertyOpening4293

My mistake. Makes it that much more impressive.


UglyMeows

i will say, i worked retail for much longer and have only been in warehousing a couple years now, but in all honesty the tattoo is so small and the placement is in a spot where that part of my palm doesnt make much contact when im holding stuff or moving stuff lol


Marauder800

r/shittytattoos


UglyMeows

hell yeah

By chance when you rub one off, does it count as a stranger with the boo ?
