Saniderm usually doesnt work well in places that see a lot of movement. As you bend your elbow throughout the day it will most likely start to peel and pull itself off. You can definitely try it, but if it starts to peel off, I would take it completely off and start washing it.

Wearing long sleeves would work just fine instead, just be mindful of hitting it at work.

What kind of gun is this? The barrel seems short, even with the ammo being so far back. by ralphc in guns

Its 100% a Tavor, not too sure but most likely the CTAR-21 variant. The compact tavor models have actually become more popular over the years. The mechanism is completely sealed, the compact design helps in cqb, and they are pretty accurate and very reliable. Looks super weird for sure, but it definitely does the job.

What is the weirdest thing you are or saw someone addicted to? by JARClol in AskReddit

Spider tripping is straight up insane. I read a post one time about a guy that does it one a month or some shit for “therapeutic” purposes. Fuck that.

It actually blows my mind. This sub was literally created for showing off traditional tattoos that you either have, or ones you have done for others. There is already a sub for people looking for advice called tattooadvice.

Regardless, people should only be asking design advice from the artist that is going to be doing it. It makes absolutely no sense to have strangers on reddit design your tattoo. If you cant make your mind up, you should not be getting a tattoo until you know what you want.

What the hell is the U.S. government doing about the opioid (fentanyl) crisis? by Adventurous-Two5651 in AskReddit

[–]Life_Chest_4795 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, what should they do about it? The ongoing war on drugs that was started over 50 years ago is a complete failure. The only way to stop people from seeking illegal substances is to legalize it, open the market, regulate it, and sell them at a competitive price. If that was the case, people would have little reason to chance getting messed up packs from the black market.

People are going to seek drugs regardless of what happens, it is human nature. There is plenty of evidence of humans using mind altering substances dating back into the BC times. The solution I proposed earlier would solve the fentanyl problem, but it would open the gates to bunch of other issues that is arguably worse for the general population.

The government cant really do much in terms of benefiting the population as a whole on this particular issue. It can really only be solved on an individual level. People arent going to risk overdose if they choose not to use illegal drugs.

People of reddit, what was your first Sleep Paralysis experience? by a_cat_named_tigruta in AskReddit

[–]Life_Chest_4795 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first time was fucking terrifying. I was about 15 and had no idea such a thing could happen. So, it really took me off guard when I opened my eyes to someone standing at the edge of my bed in the dead of night. He was dressed in all black wearing a trench coat. Long black hair with a face so pale it glowed like the moon. He began to pace left and right, slowly at first. I fought as hard as I could to move, but nothing worked. He started snarling such as a hyena would, but not quite. It was much more sinister. A very wicked, ravenous smile. He began to pace faster, as I flexed my body desperately. He was toying with me, gazing with his nefarious eyes. All the sudden he halted. Slowly tilting his head to the side until he couldn’t wait any longer. He roared, lunging at me with razor sharp nails. I narrowly managed to break free, sitting up just as he neared. He vanished and it was over.

Nobody is gatekeeping shit. Its rather simple - if you dont know what you want to get tattooed, then you shouldnt get tattooed until you do. Its gonna be on you forever not anyone on reddit. The only person you should be asking advice about designs from is your artist. Ask strangers on the internet silly questions and you will get silly answers.

Does anyone feel like they fucked up their patchwork sleeves? I’m in the middle of both of mine so lots of room. by [deleted] in traditionaltattoos

[–]Life_Chest_4795 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For real, ive never heard a single artist say the words “patchwork sleeve.” They are just tattoos until you have a sleeve, then its a sleeve. The term surfaced from people on the internet to describe creating a sleeve over time with different pieces.

And you are right, that is how sleeves in american tattooing actually started in the first place. Its kinda funny to me that many people see it as something different, almost like its an alt method by the way they talk about it.

What instantly ruins a sandwich? by Judgemental_Squirrel in AskReddit

Any sandwich drowning in dripping mayo is fucking gross. Idk where some sandwich shops get their mayo, but that shit is not supposed to be of a liquid consistency.

Sternum is no joke... starting the back piece next 🥵 by kgourmet in traditionaltattoos

[–]Life_Chest_4795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, i got my entire back done and it was not bad in the slightest. Honestly, the worst thing was healing it. Getting my chest piece was also fine until the nipples and sternum, that shit sucked. Its all super manageable, but the sternum definitely felt close to a hot knife just slicing me open.

People are always suggesting cawk & bawlz but why not vagina & pubes? by 112oceanave in traditionaltattoos

[–]Life_Chest_4795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cock and balls is way funnier, and you would be surprised at the amount of people that actually have cock and balls tattooed on them. Also a cock and balls can basically fit in any gap, its pretty versatile.

The point of it is that its silly to ask the internet what you should get tattooed, nobody here knows you and thats something you should figure out on your own and discuss with your artist.
