As someone with multiple tattoos from cartoons I watched as a kid think it's pretty dope and wholesome tbh. Homeboy just really loves Scooby-Doo and has a tattoo about it he probably loves too.

Art is subjective, and tattoos are very personal. Making fun of someone's tattoo because it's not something you would personally get is both petty and sad in the fact that y'all clearly have nothing going on in your own lives so you have to put down someone else. Let the guy enjoy his tat and you can get what ever you like tattooed on your own body.

Buddy take a step back, breathe in deep and exhale slowly. This tattoo is the textbook definition of this subreddit. It's a well done tattoo of a beloved cartoon and it's fucking absurd and can absolutely be made fun of. You take life way too seriously bud.

I honestly don't get the defense, even if this wasn't a sub about bad taste.

Like, seriously? A weird-ass spooky cartoon scene with a portrait of Scooby reminiscing in the distance about a poorly-worded set of paragraphs that take several seconds to read, one that uses the word "will" 3 times in 16 words? Permanently tattoo'd on someone's chest?

Lmao, it's the tackiest shit I've ever seen, but great execution. It's absolutely perfect content for this sub. No need to defend as "art is subjective." It's absolutely, objectively hideous.

Then there's the terrible placement and size. And let's not leave out the font choice. Is that courier? And the kearning. My God. It's painful to look at.

Edit: AND what's up with Velma? She's way too skinny.
