I was thinking "Howdy tooth man" and a little tooth wearing a cowboy hat or the word "No" for a more literal meaning to the idiom "Read my lips"


To be clear I'm not actually going to get a tattoo on the inside of my lip this is just a shower thought.

Attached is my best attempt at AI generating an image of a cartoon tooth wearing a cowboy hat.

This lip intentionally left blank

A nurse at work had β€œCA$H MONEY” tattooed inside her lip. Sounded like the result of a drunken dare/bet.

How much would it take for you to get one.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think it would depend a lot on what it was

Surely it'd have to be a little goatee...

I know a guy that has: Jagermeister

Shame he forgot the umlaut

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I'm gonna say he probably got it, but this was in the 90's, so even if he did, I'm sure it isn't visible anymore.

I bet he regrets that umlaut.

This comment was based on the movie Precious, based on the Novel 'Push' by Sapphire

You're not getting any picture...

You won't even fit a lot of letters because they need to be big thick lines.

Even then, it'll probably be completely gone in 5 years. Your mouth heals faster than pretty much any part of your body.

I know a bunch of people that got them back in the day because of that.

The image I attached was my attempt at generating an image with AI. It would be more of a doodle than anything. No fine details

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I mean, get what you want.

Just have realistic expectations on what they can do, and how long it'll last.

Block lettering is cheap. But any kind of recognizable design will likely be expensive and start fading immediately. Like even the stereotypical "ignorant tattoo" would be too complicated for inside your lip.

A quality tattooist probably wouldn't even try anything more than a few letters.

Did you read the post? I explained it was an AI sketch and I'm not getting a tattoo it was just a shower thought

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I'm wondering how bad it would hurt

CPR instructions.
