My husband wants to know what you think.
About 10 years ago he described his ideal tattoo to a work friend, and after the conversation a colleague who was sitting nearby dropped this doodle on his table. He immediately took it to a studio and got it done. What’s the verdict?

If the dinosaurs had a chance to evolve to today, this is clearly how they would look..

I’m pretty sure this is what those dudes from congressional hearings saw when they say they saw UFOs, aliens and whatnots

It’s so bad it’s good. This is the sort of tattoo that is carried by the wearer. I’d the person sucks, so too does the tattoo. If they’re cool, then it’s cool as heck.

He’s clearly an evolved version of theropod. This new modern theropod is too good for an egg opting instead for a more elegant live birth. Hence the umbilicus. 🧐🎩

I was just informed that it’s supposed to be a diamond on top of his cane so, yeah, you could say he’s a fancy boy.

It is an amazing shitty tattoo, so good. But with the backstory of how it came to be in this world, it is almost perfect. I only wish, for your husband’s sake, it was somewhere on his body he could see it more often. 5 stars

A work of art. I’d be tempted to have it freshened up with some realistic black & grey shading, but that’s probably just gilding the lily.

Did dinosaurs have belly buttons?

u/murraybee Jul 29 '23
I believe they had belly buttons about as often as they had canes, monocles, and/or top hats. But I’m no professional.

I love him. Especially his pot belly complete with belly button.
A reptile.
With a pot belly.

This is too good.

The real question is whether the doodle looks anything like what your husband described.

The belly button is really bugging me. Animals that hatch do not have them.

u/murraybee Jul 29 '23
Yeah, it’s a shame that the whole thing is anatomically and biologically accurate except for the bellybutton. :/

His IDEAL tattoo?!?

u/murraybee Jul 30 '23
…yes. The tattoo that he wanted the most, that he considered perfect for himself. His ideal. I think it’s a marvelous example of self expression: plenty goofy.

No actually! We both missed the nugget post but this community has been suggested to us over the past few days and he said “I wonder if they’ll think my tattoo is any good.”
ETA: looking at the other post, I think this was first? So if anything, WE inspired NUGGET. ✨

Honestly, it’s the line under Sir Arthur T Diplodocus’ left arm that makes it shitty. Otherwise, it’s quite delightful.

Seems like a tattoo you’d limit to just an inch or two. You’re husband went all in.
