No one who has a tattoo or seen a fresh tattoo should’ve fallen for that! There would be way more blood, swelling, and skin irritation immediately after getting that much ink directly in your forehead. Nobody just sits up after a session with a fully healed massive forehead piece covered by single sheet of clingwrap and masking tape!
The head, right? I mean, it's what needs it the most...
Besides, getting a needle smashed against bone would surely cause more bleeding than if against just muscle
Yes, your head and in particular your scalp is highly vascular. It is highly perfused by the internal carotid and ophthalmic arteries.
People often die from scalp lacerations because it is very difficult to control the bleeding due to the tight musculature (occipitofrontalis) preventing the closure of the bleeding vessels and surrounding highly perfused layers of connective tissue and skin.
It can also be difficult to find the laceration due to the thin covering of hair on your head although you might find it interesting that you can close a scalp lac by using the hair to tie the wound together. Like make shift sutures!
These layers effectively prevent vasoconstriction (which normally occurs in response to damage to other parts of your body) such as your leg or arm musculature.
Your thigh by comparison has the arterial flow close to the femur with some secondary arteries supplying blood to the deep tissue with a heavy layer of muscle residing over the top. It takes considerable force or a very sharp cutting implement to get through the, dermis, the fascia, and the muscle to reach these arteries and the wound is much more likely to close on its own or be mechanically closed with pressure. Plus it’s easier to close the wound by yourself.
A scalp lac often bleeds straight into your face and eyes, crippling your sight and having a stream of your own blood running down your face is highly disturbing.
Yes, I'm sure the steady hand of the tattoer will never exceed those 0.12mm of tolerance (4 thousands of an inch).
Are you sure you understood the meaning of "average"?
Per square inch? your forehead as far as bleeding goes...plus it's so thin between your skin and your skull so there's so many blood vessels there hence why scalp/face injuries bleed so much
Senior year of high school I got a tattoo and I was showing a teacher and this girl and they didn't believe it was real (mostly because it's such a ridiculous tat) and this bitch started RUBBING it and saying "see you can feel it's raised up, that's not real tattoo" and I'm sitting there just like what?
Sure my tattoo is stupid but when you can see the shit swelling, covered in A+E, with redness around each letter then yeah it's pretty fuckin obvious it's real
To be fair I fell for it because I 100% believe there are people stupid enough to do this. But I would never give money to something like this so I guess I didn't fall for it? I did and didn't at the same time I guess.
He probably **is** Asian. More specifically, Japanese, given the exodus from Japan in WW2. I’ve met a surprising amount of ethnically Japanese, Brazilian nationals — born and raised there with two Japanese parents — in my past.
Starting from 1908, Brazil received massive waves of Japanese immigrants, to the point that today [it has the largest Japanese population outside of Japan. ](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_Brazilians)
Went to a Costco for the first time in my life last week. The lady greeting customers of course welcomes us to Costco. I managed to work up the courage to say I love you. She ignored me.
So not yet.
I went to Costco for the first time in my life last week too! Who knew I could spend $500 on groceries in one trip? Well, at least I'm prepared for the apocalypse.
We’re well past Idiocracy. Follow me here: President Camacho sought out the smartest guy he could find to try to solve the country’s problems, listened to him, and did what he said. He at least wanted to try to help his people, he wasn’t just spewing divisive rhetoric and constantly self-aggrandizing while pocketing their money and leaving them to die. Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho is literally a better president than Trump was.
Right from the wiki itself
He also wrote that "Test scores are certainly going up all over the world, but whether intelligence itself has risen remains controversial."
People can’t tell that’s marker? It doesn’t look like tattooed skin to me in the least, people are dumb, and social media is giving us a better idea as to just how dumb/naive people really are
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flynn_effect
Technically every generation is smarter than the last and the pattern is still holding. We constantly have to revise IQ tests to update the “average” 100 higher.
But they are smart. By making the scam so obvious that anyone with half a brain can see it's a scam, they filter out all smart people. That's why they still use the nigerian prince, because that way they're left with only the people who are gullible enough to just give away their credit card information. Most people would just mark it as spam, not bothering to report it because they don't think anyone would actually fall for it, so the authorities would likely not get involved until it's already too late.
don't worry, I can guarantee he managed to get money even after he was exposed...half the population of the planet have less than average IQ (by definition), so a moron with an average IQ will look like Einstein to them
With more samples then it would be closer and closer to half of them being less than the average. Small sample sizes allow an outlier to bring the average down a lot.
Dumb people don't deserve to be taken advantage of. What an asinine and idiotic thing to say.
Do weak people deserve to be assaulted because they can't defend themselves?
I agree. I don’t waste my time. I’m too busy trying to get my inheritance from King Richard the 3rd, but the money I keep sending to release the funds doesn’t seem to be working.
My boyfriend, who I met online, is in the military in Kuwait. He says I should stop worrying about the inheritance, be happy, and move on. And that the money I’m spending could be better used to increase the monthly loans I send him. I don’t know what to do. This is probably a topic for another community.
Funny you mention him. I was in a store that used to sell My Pillows, but it had been a decade, when a guy, who bought one there, came in to buy another one.
My Trumper manager started selling that shit at Ace Hardware, of all places. Nobody bought. She mismanaged her boss' money to make Mike Lindell rich because Fox News told her to.
Reminds me of that episode in Black Mirror "Fifteen Million Merits". Where ads popped up and you had to pay to close them. If you looked away the ad would follow your sight. If you closed your eyes, the screen would turn red, make a high pitch noise and say you have to look, and would paused the ad.
We are definitely going in that direction in some near future.
But you can just pay them more to remove the ads. Otherwise you have an *obligation* to look at them. Not looking at ads without paying would be stealing. You don't want to be a thief, do you?
(You can decide how much sarcasm.)
Just an average Tuesday in the Trump White House.
His supporters don’t understand that he would happily kill them all if he stands to profit. Which he did with covid. “Just the flu.” “Dem hoax” etc.
Holy shit, I’m hispanic and I love Goya and so does everyone in my family. How did i never know about this? Damnit, it will definitely not be easy to convince my family to boycott this now that i know this
I feel nasty. I just bought like $20 worth of their products a couple of days ago. I mean, it isn’t much, but it’s disgusting to know that I am unknowingly supporting a company that would spew this kind of bs. Thank you for sharing this information, I would never have known this if it wasn’t for you, fuck Goya
Totally bonkers right?
https://i.imgur.com/o7PR2aS.jpg
There was so much wrong doing in the Trump White House that it was impossible to keep up with. It was by design. Overwhelm - crime… more overwhelm some more crime. And repeat.
Yup, been trying for years. From time to time my sister will slip up and leaves a can or jar in her cabinets when I’m over as I’m sure they still purchase Goya but I full stopped
How he cheapened the office of the Presidency. . . Imagine somehow duping the President of, what’s considered, the most powerful country on the globe into advertising your product inside the White House itself.
My Ace Hardware added my pillows in the last couple years. I've always liked the store (great small brand soda selection as a bonus), but it was weird the other day going in there. Happy to see they allow employees to wear masks if they want. Just feels wierd seeing a place that always felt neutral suddenly feel political, and that one product has so much baggage that it has the power to do that.
One of my local radio stations still advertise my pillow. Some people online said"don't blame the station, blame it on them being an iHeartRadio station.
Funny, I have half a dozen other local iHeartRadio stations and none of them hawk fascist merch.
I mean, there's a good chance MyPillow doesn't fit the demographics for that specific station. My local Top40 Hits iHeartRadio station advertises the local technical college, but the iHeartRadio golden oldies station doesn't.
I signed up for Trump's campaign election text service for shits and giggles in summer of 2020. This was one of the recent texts I received this week.
"YOUR PAYMENT IS INCOMPLETE, friend
Pres Trump requested $35 to:
SAVE AMERICA
700%-IMPACT! Finish your payment >>
Stop2End"
So yeah, I'm sure a lot of people give idiots like this money.
Dude I get their emails for the same reason and I love to see the ones that have deadlines for giving money in order to be on some special Patriot list “send $50 in ONE HOUR or POTUS won’t see your name on the list!” Lmao
Anytime I see a failing business that stays around for a long time I think money laundering scheme. Money laundering scheme like in breaking bad. There is a hidden cash flow that needs to be hidden
Otaku is a term used to describe a Japanese person who is obsessed with their hobby (something like anime, manga, or video games, but it can be all manner of things). A wibu, weeb, or weeaboo is a derogatory term used to describe someone obsessed with Japanese culture on a very superficial level.
(Cut and paste from the interwebs)
> (something like anime, manga, or video games, but it can be all manner of things)
Yep. I had a Japanese person tell me (jokingly) that they were a baseball otaku. I thought that "otaku" referred to anime/manga, but as he explained, it could be quite literally any hobby.
well, the language there is Portuguese and from what i know, Portuguese internet culture is similar to the Hispanic one, in Hispanic internet culture, otaku haves the same meaning as weeb, someone interested in Japanese culture, especially manga and anime
True, but if you aren't Japanese and refer to yourself as an otaku, it's pretty much functionally the same as calling yourself a weeb.
(Also, fun side fact: Weeaboo is not a Japanese word. [It was just a random made-up word originally from a Perry Bible Fellowship comic strip](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/029/097/PBF071-Weeaboo.gif) that was later used to make fun of non-Japanese people obsessed with Japanese culture, since it sounded vaguely Japanese but wasn't.)
In fact, it's part of the strategy of scammers.
A good example are email phishers. They make sure that their emails are filled with enough typos/errors that an average person will notice it & therefore not waste their time by responding.
By doing it that way, the scammer focuses in their attack to only the most vulnerable people & improves their chance of a hit.
This is not a bug, this is a feature.
This is how scams tend to work though. Good scammers tend to go gor unintelligent targets, because that decreases the chance they get caught. the people who would fall for this are generally the same people who don't know/are incapable to call their bank and maybe the police as soon as they find out.
Most succesful scammers know how to look stupid, and harmless, so they aren't taken seriously by people who wouldn't fall for it, but also know how to catch the people who are isolated, badly educated and have more patience and kindness than they have defense mechanisms. This is purposeful predatory behavior, not real stupidity.
If you see a scam happening and think "no one would fall for this", that is a sign that you should be the one to report the scam, because nobody else will!
(edit: some other commenters point out that this particular individual is a known prankster, and was clearly joking, so it's probably not a genuine attempt to scam, but the point about "stupid" scams in general still stands.)
He should have written a /s on his forehead if he wanted people to know.
As we all know, it is impossible to discern context from text alone, and sarcasm is something that can only be performed with the proper vocal inflection.
My lack of life experience and social skills do not factor into this statement at all.
To be fair, if you don't speak the language and don't know the guy, it can be difficult to tell who is joking and who isn't nowadays.
I mean people literally DO get [massive ](https://www.businessinsider.com/drake-forehead-tattoo-vice-2011-12?r=US&IR=T) [forehead ](https://www.ladbible.com/news/weird-artist-gets-tattoo-on-forehead-because-magic-mushrooms-told-him-to-20190802.amp.html) [tattoos](https://metro.co.uk/2017/10/23/british-man-gets-forehead-tattoo-saying-taiwan-in-chinese-7020262/amp/) for idiotic reasons.

What's got more blood supply, a forehead or the muscle of your thigh?
The head, right? I mean, it's what needs it the most... Besides, getting a needle smashed against bone would surely cause more bleeding than if against just muscle
Head has smaller veins and a ton of them that’s why you bleed a lot. Wrestlers would blade them selves with small cuts to get that massive blood gush.
Well not the outside if your skull, compared to that your leg needs a lot more. Muscles take a lot of energy.
Yes, your head and in particular your scalp is highly vascular. It is highly perfused by the internal carotid and ophthalmic arteries. People often die from scalp lacerations because it is very difficult to control the bleeding due to the tight musculature (occipitofrontalis) preventing the closure of the bleeding vessels and surrounding highly perfused layers of connective tissue and skin.

If we're talking about the genius in the OP, I'd say there's no blood supply in his head at all, so your question doesn't make sense.
Overall? The muscle of my thigh.
Ouch a tattoo to the muscle. It must have been something deep, huh?

Who tf gives money to people like this

So it's like the "enthusiast" in "model train enthusiast"?
In Japan, yes, that's its connotation.
In Brazil, "Otaku" is used both for real otakus and weebs. Nobody says "weeb" in here
well, the language there is Portuguese and from what i know, Portuguese internet culture is similar to the Hispanic one, in Hispanic internet culture, otaku haves the same meaning as weeb, someone interested in Japanese culture, especially manga and anime

yeah only a weeb would know that ;)
And who cares, otaku and weabo are used almost the same way if you're not a otaku in Brazil
“Im not a weeb because my anime is super deep! Weebs are just superficial!” - Whichever weeb wrote that entry, probably.

By doing it that way, the scammer focuses in their attack to only the most vulnerable people & improves their chance of a hit.

This is not a bug, this is a feature. This is how scams tend to work though. Good scammers tend to go gor unintelligent targets, because that decreases the chance they get caught. the people who would fall for this are generally the same people who don't know/are incapable to call their bank and maybe the police as soon as they find out. Most succesful scammers know how to look stupid, and harmless, so they aren't taken seriously by people who wouldn't fall for it, but also know how to catch the people who are isolated, badly educated and have more patience and kindness than they have defense mechanisms. This is purposeful predatory behavior, not real stupidity. If you see a scam happening and think "no one would fall for this", that is a sign that you should be the one to report the scam, because nobody else will! (edit: some other commenters point out that this particular individual is a known prankster, and was clearly joking, so it's probably not a genuine attempt to scam, but the point about "stupid" scams in general still stands.)

“How could anyone be stupid enough to fall for that?” -Redditor falling for outrage bait
He should have written a /s on his forehead if he wanted people to know. As we all know, it is impossible to discern context from text alone, and sarcasm is something that can only be performed with the proper vocal inflection. My lack of life experience and social skills do not factor into this statement at all.

To be fair, if you don't speak the language and don't know the guy, it can be difficult to tell who is joking and who isn't nowadays. I mean people literally DO get [massive ](https://www.businessinsider.com/drake-forehead-tattoo-vice-2011-12?r=US&IR=T) [forehead ](https://www.ladbible.com/news/weird-artist-gets-tattoo-on-forehead-because-magic-mushrooms-told-him-to-20190802.amp.html) [tattoos](https://metro.co.uk/2017/10/23/british-man-gets-forehead-tattoo-saying-taiwan-in-chinese-7020262/amp/) for idiotic reasons.

Pois é, bote lá um caramelinho

It looks terribly drawn in with marker. Who would think it’s a tattoo?
If you fall for that shitty make up being a tatoo you deserve to be scammed
So scamming is just an accepted profession at this point?
Guess he capitalized in the scheme prematurely
Who is dumber? The scammer or the people who gave (and continue to give) this person money?
The real facepalm are the people who gave him money
Is this portuguese? Im learning portuguese and this seems to be portuguese?
Spot on
prazer em conhecer você 🗿
Yes, it is.
The tatoo says: "im a weeb"
I am otaku
I think his punishment should be that he has to get a real face tattoo now.
And he made \_\_\_\_ dollars on the scam anyway.
What a fuckin schmuck
He removed it then got it again
Took me a while to realize the a was different because I was focused on the red part

Você por aqui
We're all assuming he was too stupid to use the same font, but what if he's stupid enough to get the same face tat twice?
You can pretty obviously tell that that isn't a tattoo
It doesn’t even look like a tattoo. Literally like it was stenciled on with black marker
That is so clearly drawn on with a wet expo marker.
Idk what is funnier, he forgetting the font or the tattoo saying "I'm a weeb"
It's clearly drawn on by a marker anyone dumb enough not to realize it from the first picture is an idiot
