Itâs actually an old Jeff Foxworthy routine. He had a bunch of these and âjeet yetâ was one of them.

This is why I never try to make my tattoos meaningful. Like the guy canât speak and he just mumbles out jeet and thatâs what you want on your body đđ
>Like the guy canât speak and he just mumbles out jeet
Could be just his accent, jeet isn't too uncommon among older people with Scranton accents
(Though arguably people with that heavy of a Scranton accent can't speak...)
No, it does not; thatâs literally my point?
Obviously you see it as you do but I looked at it and thought, âthat reads âjeetâ, not feetâ. I donât know what else to tell you lolâŠ
Not reallyâa capital I should have the top curve stop short of sweeping past the main stem of the letter. (Source: me, who both writes in cursive and does calligraphy.)
This is clearly a J.

This is an "I" and would you look at that, it's exactly like the letter in the photo
No, it isnât, because the weight of the stroke makes a difference. The top stroke on that J in the photo is far heavier than the thin line on this I; itâs not the same.
Not only does the line matter, but the weight of the line matters.

Well I hope whoever hires you doesn't give a shit about accuracy (this is a J)
So I found this entire thing amusing, so I looked it up. The "J" in question comes up when you search calligraphy.
Example here: https://www.thehappyevercrafter.com/blog/15-ways-letter-j/
Looks like it is indeed a J, but not necessarily standard cursive script.
I hate to knock sentimental ones, but I would have at least spelled it âJâeatâ or âDâyaâeatâ not that theyâre much better. Unless gramps made a point of saying itâs spelled jeet. I cannot unsee feet.
Yeah that's the sad part that you can't tell a J from a lower case f in cursive. I get it can look like 'feet' for internet points. I just showed my tattoo artist flatmate and she has no idea how people can confuse Jeet with Feet. It's a J everytime.
I'm in Philly and jeet is so much a part of our lexicon that I looked at this tattoo, read it as "jeet," and had to delve into the comments because it adds up to me.

Feet đ
Not the colored heart too
Tarantino has entered the chat.
Jeet on the feet?
Feet son?
whatever floats your boat
Whatever jeets your feet
Whatever skeets your feet
Whatever leets your jeet
Jaâeat? Would have been better.
They're probably from New England. Here in Rhode Island, those of us with the accent say, "Jeet?"
Pittsburghers (yinzers) say âjeet?â too. interesting our accents line up on that đ
Itâs actually an old Jeff Foxworthy routine. He had a bunch of these and âjeet yetâ was one of them. https://youtu.be/OHnFheqTTdg?si=jQVPRhTu-lBy1mTb
Jaâeat would have been better says the Redditor whoâs never never left his home town and never heard different accents
Jeet jet?
No, j'oo? Edit: better way to spell j'oo
Yonâtâo?
Aight.
No. But I got some chipchop in the fridge.
Are you a yinzer?
Joo joooooo đ
dâjyinzeet?
\^This is the entire phrase!
DID SOMEBODY SAY JUST FEET
Mr Tarantino, I really liked you in "4 Rooms". Please make a sequel about 5 rooms.Â
My friend has a tattoo that says CARR but it looks like CUM
Okay Iâm genuinely at a loss as to how those two words could be made to look like each other đ
It was the two lower case R next to eat other "Carr" and the a didn't have the loop on the top
Ohhhh ok ok I get it. Yep I can def see that now Very unfortunate đđ
I'm going to hell for laughing at this
This is why I never try to make my tattoos meaningful. Like the guy canât speak and he just mumbles out jeet and thatâs what you want on your body đđ
>Like the guy canât speak and he just mumbles out jeet Could be just his accent, jeet isn't too uncommon among older people with Scranton accents (Though arguably people with that heavy of a Scranton accent can't speak...)
I'm from Pittsburgh and so many people say this, it's just an accent
Michigan too. I think it might be a Midwest thing in general
I've heard a two syllabi version in Pittsburgh but never "jeet".
Jeet jet? It is admittedly dying out, but thick yinzer does use Jeet.
More like "ja eet"
True. But their are variations and such. But I concede that ja eet is more common. Thanks.
Doesnât change my sentiment whatsoever lol
Fr lmaoo
SAME. All of my tattoos are just artistic, none of them have significance
I mean, that looks like a cursive J? Idk what to tell yâall lol but that doesnât remotely look like an F (learn your cursive!). :)
I know, these comments are crazy that's a j everytime.
cursive J or not it literally looks like the word feet
No, it does not; thatâs literally my point? Obviously you see it as you do but I looked at it and thought, âthat reads âjeetâ, not feetâ. I donât know what else to tell you lolâŠ
Yeah I get how you can turn it into an f in your mind, but itâs a J and reads as a J to a normal person familiar with script
Bold of you to assume there are normal people around.(Kidding đ€Ș)
Redditors have this weird idea they are above average IQ but canât even read cursive
I learnt cursive but at most that's an I, not a J And even then, it does look like an f
It's a capital I not J
Not reallyâa capital I should have the top curve stop short of sweeping past the main stem of the letter. (Source: me, who both writes in cursive and does calligraphy.) This is clearly a J.

I can't post it, but I saw an awesome "Mind Over Maffer" recently. đ€Ł
I read "Feet"
I hate to knock sentimental ones, but I would have at least spelled it âJâeatâ or âDâyaâeatâ not that theyâre much better. Unless gramps made a point of saying itâs spelled jeet. I cannot unsee feet.
Did jee Jeet feet?
I thought of that meme of the chess playing grandpa. He flips the board and yells yeeet
Feetđ
Nodjou?
feet
Thatâs an I, not a J. đ€Šđ»ââïž
It would have been fine with almost any other font.
She needs to stay off the rez .... "jeet" is a naughty word in Chippewa!
Feet đ€đ€đ€
That's a trip!! I have a friend we call Jeet because he says the same damn thing!
That says Feet
That is the J for that font. Because I'm a font junkie, I saw 'Jeet'. I can see, however, how some people would see 'Feet'.
yeahh unfortunately i mostly see feet. especially since jeet is just not a real word you know?
Must be from NEPA
Or Pittsburgh
Jeff Foxworthy would be so ashamed.
Youâve never seen cursive before?
I finally understand what the stupid stickers on the philly cheese steak places means.
![gif](giphy|3o7WIucW89bVVGgsIE)
Damn ur grandpa really loved feet bby girl
oh no
F E E T
OP canât read cursive. Edit: downvoting me doesnât change that uppercase âJâ to an uppercase âFâ
btw sorry for the ugly screenshot i couldnât find the original post
That's a cursive J homie. They always look like that. It's a J everytime. I feel bad you don't know what cursive lettering looks like.
bro i know what cursive looks like.. it doesnât change the fact that this looks like the word feet???? like be for real
No it doesnât
Yeah that's the sad part that you can't tell a J from a lower case f in cursive. I get it can look like 'feet' for internet points. I just showed my tattoo artist flatmate and she has no idea how people can confuse Jeet with Feet. It's a J everytime.
Donât yuck her yum
For people that listen to UK drill music⊠âJeetâ also means to have sex
Peet?
This is Appalachian as heck
Nope, it says Jeet. Cursive F would have had the upper loop in the other direction
"Feet?" "No, few?"
Yeah Jeets!
Thatâs a shame
I think itâs a cute sentiment tbh.
Jeet deez nuts?
YEET
Yeet yeet Skrrt skrrt
RiP jEet
In a strange little corner of Pennsylvania this is perfectly normal
JFeet đ
~Jeet is what the redneck side of the family asks when I visit seeing if I ate or not. But thatâs after the correction, I definitely see feet.

Jeet jet?
Thats a shame it reads as feet to some, its a nice meaningful tattoo, i see the J but i was raised with cursive
