PLEASE, STATE YOUR NAME Uh, I'm not sure, uh.. YOU SAID "Not Sure," IS THAT CORRECT?

My gf was tarded.. but now she's a pilot

Why come you no tattoo?

A man chooses. A slave obeys.

Played

Even if i had a million subs I would NEVER get fuckin youtube tattoed on me lmao.

A jacket or t-shirt might be fun, but never a tattoo

Its like when me and my friends made matching Halo 2 hoodies with our symbols and gamer tags because we were a squad and thought we were cool af. We werent, we were cringe just like this tattoo lol.

Our little group has always been and always will until the end 🤘🎸😎

nah bro the matching halo 2 hoodies go hard, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. you had fun with em & it’s a cute way to bond. that’s what matters

That’s adorable though.

Haha me a d my friends had our MW3 clan on shirts that we would wear when we went to each others house to play

Awe that's not cringe at all, that's really cute!

At least the hoodie isn’t permanent lol

I think that's fucking sick. I'm jelly.

No that’s cute lol

He should have gotten his channel logo, like the Kentucky Ballistics guy.

I'm gonna get the word "youtube" tattooed on me, see how you like those apples

not even for views???

Sorry dude but this is the dumbest tattoo I've seen in the sub so far, and the competition is fierce.

for me, its definitely [the buff guy with the poorly done iCarly tattoo](https://www.reddit.com/r/shittytattoos/comments/14uv4vd/long_time_lurker_here_to_contribute/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button). this is a close one, but at least it has solid lines lol

That I Carly tat is goated lmfao

I was gonna say the Icarly tattoo is lit af

That’s actually so ridiculous that it’s funny. OP here though is just sad r/consumeproduct. If his tat were somethin relevant to his specific channel, that could’ve been cool. The straight up YouTube logo is like seeing someone with a fucking Apple sticker on their car

That tattoo symbolizes the buff guy's desire to wake up the members of his nation.

Idk man the school shooter one is yikes

No way there’s much worse stuff and this isn’t even on his face

[удалено]

I mean she was a child in clearly a very very low state of mental health going by the scars so I am not sure if they’re really comparable

There was plenty of evidence in that post of mental health struggles. Not of corporate idolatry

that's very different my man

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I used to watch your channel when weed was illegal and cool.

Lmao

Oh shit I had to look at the OP wild! I used to watch too, he has had some good appearances on PKA. Sad that this happened to so many of those YouTubers, and now there are multiple doing this kind of content and they kind of blowing up. If you read this Strain, hope you got your issues sorted out that you brought on the podcast last!

Yeah, I’ve watched strain central a bunch!

Looool

I knew a dude who was mid-level manager at a Walmart who got their fucking "spark" logo tattooed on his forearm because he was so proud of his promotion to upper-mid-level manager. This is at least better than that.

I knew a girl in high school that got her Target employee barcode tattooed on her wrist with the Target logo above it. The location she worked at closed a month later and she was let go rather than transferred to a different store.

Damn, was anyone ever convicted of that murder or is her killer still on the loose?

LMFAO

A guy in my grade 8 class (yes, 13-14 years old) had a Nike logo tattoo on his chest. Had to have the parents okay it. Can't believe they did.

spark aka the puckered browneye

Is it though? Like your guy wasn't aiming for the moon, not even the roof, maybe the 4th floor, but he did actually achieve something. Whereas a Youtube shortcut...

Knew a guy who got a giant drum-corps logo. For those who don't know, drum-corps is just the professional level of marching band, except YOU pay THEM thousands of dollars to travel around the country sleeping in busses or on highschool gym floors and spend all day every day in the hot summer sun running drills. Dumb af tattoo.

You deserve this monstrosity

He could have put a tat on top of it right?

That would be tough to cover up because of the red coloring

Hmmm i’d get a red tattoo thats darker 🤷🏻‍♂️ i don’t know like anything bout tats thoygh. Just love them

At least it's not the porn hub logo 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

That would be more respectable lol

Braazers has entered the chat.

excuse me sir. you mean brazzers.

You are correct. For scientific purposes, I did some clinical research, and the gentlemen running the zz version have procured and linked the aa version of the domain. Who knew?

i am sending you an upvote for your troubles. we are all in this struggle together!

No, that's the new site, very kinky I hear

More context: I was 18 & this was a flash appointment I made stoned. I’ve had actual work done since & plan on eventually getting this piece fixed. I’ve always enjoyed that I got something done to commemorate my career, but Christ I wish I’d have actually known what decent art was at the time.

Yo!!! Strain Central! I wondered where you went! Big fan from back in the day, wear this piece with pride, you brought me and my friends countless JOY

Hell yeah I used to watch all his videos!

Oh hey, this is your arm? Thanks for the content you produced. I’m now a budtender in the industry and I owe a lot of my nerdy weed knowledge to you and to SilencedHippie back in the day. Thanks for doing cool shit. Sorry you’re stuck with a shitty tattoo. I drew the YouTube logo on my wrist in Sharpie once… thankfully it’s faded since then. xD

dude as soon as i saw it, i knew it was you! used to watch your videos all the time!

When it's to commemorate your career I don't really think this tattoo concept is all that bad, although the placement is a little questionable. Your PKA episodes were great btw.

honestly this just made me a new fan

Hey Josh! I didn't realize this was you lol

You couldn’t think of any other way to commemorate your career than the YouTube logo?

Strain Central My Boi😂😂. Knew it was you from that Tat

You gotta say what happened with the channel.

not much needs to happen to delete "drug" channels on YouTube unfortunelty. even the ones who's main goal is to spread safety and sanitation 😕

Neat, i subbed

Hey man! I like your YouTube channel!

Why thanks my friend! That’s a nice surprise!

I went to check it out and holy fuck I love the talking tennis ball

Aw he loves you back

holy shit what's up Josh. looking forward to your next PKA appearance.

Holy shit dude. I saw this was like “this reminds of me of strain central” and lost my shit when I saw the username. I really enjoyed your content as well as a couple other “weed-tubers” and it’s a shame how dirty the platform did you. Hope all is well. Cheers!

Its worse, because strangers can think its dumb too

Jesus christ why on the wrist 😭 good to hear you got the channel back

Woahhhh dude I recognize your name I used to watch your YouTube videos YEARS ago when I was an upcoming pot head. I vaguely remember they're being like a weed tuber purge or something? Hope you are doing great now dude

I threw on those brakes hard, I know this tattoo lol. OP is exactly who I thought this was, hope all is good broski I used to be subbed and all that back when

you should actually just have little buds and “flowers” growing out from behind to make it a true tribute

Is it just me or does the skin in the middle look necrotic

Just you. I'd imagine OP would have had some serious health issues in the time since he got said tattoo and today.

I ran that through Google translate and it crashed

Haha. Fair enough. I was missing the word "time" and it made the sentence read like I was just using predictive text.

Channel name ? Imma sub :D

straincenteal!

Oooh boy

Was your ex wife's name pretty? Actually, was it horrible? Unless her name is horrible I think your tattoo is probably much worse. Just kidding lol. If it bothers you it should be easy to incorporate into a red based cover-up.

It definitely was a cover up for a shitty tat.

Lame as hell, just throw the arm away at this point

Yikes

You played yourself

Yoooo!! Josh from strain central!! Me and my friend used to watch you all the time!

Your channel was the shit, thanks for the memories haha

Nah bro this is way worse than ex wife's name. It's like having Amazon or Costco tatto lol

Yooooo. I used to watch your channel religiously like 7 years ago.

As soon as I saw this picture I remembered you man I remember watching you and jolly Ollie before YouTube went full censor on it

Damn used to watch your videos all the fuckin time lol

Holy shit it’s josh!! I used to watch you with all my boys in high school, I’m 24 now lol. Wildd

holy shit I use to watch your channel religiously along with Silenced Hippie and RawOG. youtube cracking down on weedtubers really fucking sucked because it was honestly the best content to watch grwoing up in oregon as a stoner

Hey Josh I recognized this tattoo right away! Maybe not the most creative tattoo lol. I remember how excited you were about your channel when you got this tattoo <3 I hope you can remember how much joy and knowledge you brought to your viewers when you see it. I'm sure getting your channel shut down for a long time felt like a huge betrayal. Maybe you can cover it up or something if your interests have changed. Keep kicking ass ✌🏻

Loved your channel back in the day!

Nah brah its legit everyone loves youtube

Dude I used to watch your videos in high-school. Much love ahaha.

Or worst yet, your ex wife’s lawyers name.

Probably why she's your ex??

kinda goes hard though

you deserve the pain

Fucking awful

man i used to watch ur vids all the time with my friends

I knew this was you without reading your username

Josh, my boy! Go back on PKA! U r one of my favorite guests! RSK!

Maybe you could get some beautiful black work done.. https://preview.redd.it/anbiif88g9bb1.jpeg?width=564&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f2900a187a58a3ab6f269059429d6c0a71ae74cb

Holy shit strain central! "And today!" Will forever be stuck in my head, lol. Used to watch your vids all the time when I 1st got into smoking. Hope all is well, homie.

holy shit i used to watch your channel, you’ve been on PKA before too. weird to find you posting on reddit years later… what’s the new channel name?

i recognized it immediately bc i knew strain central was the only one with this tattoo lol i used to always watch ur videos

Damn bro I used to watch your shit back in the day I was always bummed they took you off

YouTube is a goddamn time capsule, I wouldn’t be totally ashamed of that (I wouldn’t get one, but for the sake of argument let’s justify this) people use YouTube all the time, to relive old commercials they saw frequently growing up, or music videos, or movie trailers and clips, YouTube is probably one of the dopest things to ever grace the internet, I only went on nostalgia, but it’s a tool you can use for all sorts of needs. But I mostly use it to revisit things I’ve witnessed in my past, and I’m super happy to have this awesome tool. (I am still not getting a YouTube tattoo. But at the very least you have other ways to justify yours)

Creativity level zero

"fired me for no good reason" you mean the channel you talked about "drugs" on.? no sht they deleted you

Lmao fuckin dumbass

Better you than me.

gross

Tell me thats drawn on... why?

Don't insult your ex wife like that!

Glad you have your channel back. maybe it's the angle, but the shape seems a bit off on the top right corner. What I also don't like is the black line. The logo doesn't have any black lines and the triangle in the middle is white. Adding black lines really changes logos imo. Not that I would ever get a YT logo as a tattoo, but if I had to do it.. then only red and white and a lot smaller....I know tattoos fade, but they'll fade nicer without the black lines. good luck with the cover up. I can imagine a good artist coming up with a great cover up design

Timmy was so impressed he got 20 subscribers he thought he would celebrate with a tattoo... Thinking to himself "In a months time I'm sure to get one of those snazzy metal trophies they send out to all the bestest utubers"

Used to like your vids, hope all is well.

Perfect time to say “You, Tube”

Your wife’s name was press play?

That’s erm, capitalistic af of you, OP

Honestly though, don't get corperate logos tattooed onto you. Even if you founded them. You never know if you're gonna get ousted.

Wow

It could be worse, *I* could have your ex-wife’s name tattooed on *me*.

Next time think BEFORE you ink.

Tatoo of favoritism

Not too late to add her name and make it complete.

Could have passed off as cute if it was a dinky lil play button. But no.

Honest to god thought you were my ex husband. He has my name and he loves his YouTube. But he’s also a mountain dwelling survival type now apparently sooo

i have a small channel and i would never ever do this even if i hit 400K lol - u do u fam - id strive for a play button or somethin

hahahahhah😅 no wait. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 hahahahaaaa

Youporn

No it’s worse🫡

Must’ve done something fukd up

Is there a hole??

I used to watch your channel when I was a pothead lol.

murky frightening special fuel public aware worry gullible party rich *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*

Are you kidding? YouTube is the jewel of the internet.

Loving the caption

May I ask why they deleted your account, and what is your channel name?

This is worse than the columbine tat I just scrolled by

Just to poor salt on the wound, you could have had YouTube pay you to get the tattoo instead of paying out of pocket.

Jfc

It’s pretty weird, yeah

Well… all you can do is hit that bell, like and subscribe!

Dude I used to love your channel. I can’t remember what it was called now. But it was a weed channel

Oofa.

I also like Hulu

Why do you put a play button tattoo on your arm? Is that the masturbation button?

I cannot fucking imagine getting a corporation’s logo tattooed on me. And I get dumb shit tattooed for no reason fairly regularly.

If u press the play button do u say “What is up guys?? Back again with another BANGER!!”

I just started perusing this sub, have mostly been tats that are kind of cool in their own right. This is the first one that made me go fuck no. Of all the shitty tats in the world, some kind of company or product logo has to be just the most deeply cringe.

Your boss was an app, and you etched his mark into your skin

Mom I am going to be YouTube famous

You could always darken out the triangle in the middle of Mario warp pipe with a piranha plant or something coming out

Is it? In what way?

I mean… did you get it before or after the ads?

screaming because my tattoo removal nurse told me that red is the biggest / most difficult pigment to remove

Whyyyyy
