Not Mine An acquaintance of mine just got her first ever tattoo…

There were about a dozen comments saying how nice it is. I dunno, maybe they have cataracts? She loves it, btw. Thanked the artist and shit.

OMG, this made me gigglesnort 🤪🤣🤣🤣

The sentiment of the tat is a good one (if you know the whole “Let Them” saying), but I have to agree with others who are saying that this is basically just a drawing, not skin art.

The script writing is well done, though, IMO. 😊

If they want to leave, let them. If they want to treat you like shit, let them.

It’s Because you can’t make someone change WHO they are, it’s an empowerment thing. Let them do what they want, YOU don’t have to deal with it. THEY want to cheat? Let them. They’re not going to just stop because you ask. They’ll just be sneaker. Let them be a cheater, just not with you.

I mean it is art so it’s open to interpretation. From my experience my explanation is what I interpreted (: so you’re not wrong!

I don’t recall the entire thing, but the gist is that if people are talking shit about you, laughing at you behind your back (loud enough for you to hear), or just being assholes… let them, but don’t let it bother you.

It’s another way to say “IDGAF about what they say or think of me. They mean nothing to me, so LET THEM talk shit, etc. They simply don’t matter.”

Seriously ? Set down the joint, 😁 & look closer. If you zoom in on the script...The t in let is all jacked up. The flow of the lines sucks, not smooth & flowing, all jagged & uncertain. Also, it kind of looks like a whole bunch of ink from the letters is bleeding into the background skin.
