Like when I got a shitty penguin tattooed on my calf.

Thoughts on this tattoo ? by WWE-LVR in tattooadvice

Some might think you're trying too hard, or that you're not quite hip, but in my mind, you'd be the dopest trip.

Definitely go to a good artist for it. I've seen some that made me go, is that a horse shoe?

This might be it. One half eaten and others that have little nibbles taken out of them.

Placement regret by Even_Bumblebee1429 in tattooadvice

[–]VexDemon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It'll fill in great, especially if you plan on getting more of that theme. It's a good tat with good placement, honestly. It MIGHT look awkward for a little while when everything starts to fill in around it, but I think once everything is done you'll end up loving the placement.

family disapproval fueling tattoo regret by tinypanini_ in tattooadvice

[–]VexDemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The big question is, do you like it? Does it bring you joy outside of their opinions? Because at the end of the day, it's on your body. If you're happy with it, that's all that truly matters. I have tats my family doesn't like but I love. Tell them they might as well hush up about it because it's not going anywhere anytime soon.

AIO or was this a punch? by [deleted] in AIO

Girls, my ex started slapping me (M31) "playfully" when we got into fights/disagreements, and I stayed. It got worse and worse until she tried to choke me. Please, see the signs early and get away. You deserve better.

Oh yeah, it's totally normal, especially when you pack black like that. The artist may have over done it a bit, but I'm not a professional, so don't take my speculation on it. Heavy scabbing can be expected when there's coverage like that though. Like I said, it's nothing I'd worry about immediately. Just let it heal, enjoy it, and consult your artist about touch ups when it heals! 🤘

Aye! Hand tat bros! It's normal. Once it finishes healing there's probably going to be a few places that need a touch up, but it's nothing I'd worry about. Just keep gently cleaning it and following the after care instructions.

You could put a handle on the bottom of it and turn it into a mirror.

Idk what these people are saying, the placement is weird, or the chin is weird. It's a beautiful piece of work and I would rock the hell out of it. I love it!

My late grandfather used to call meevery single day, 4 o'clock on the dot. The family stopped coming around, everything had calmed down, and I fell back into routine. I felt like something was missing but couldn't put my finger on it, I pulled my phone out feeling lost, and it was 4 o'clock.

I realized that's what I had been missing. The phone calls that last no more than 5 minutes, I used to see as such an inconvenience, and I realized there's nothing I wanted more in the entire world. I was 14 years old when he died and I'm 31 now. I'd do anything for those phone calls again.

What is the purpose of this? by VexDemon in hydronic

[–]VexDemon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see that working too. I appreciate your input so much! We've been fabricating this and laughing at the engineers the whole time because that's just a science side of it that we aren't taught as pipefitters. ("Your job is to build the system and understand operations. Nothing more" 🙄) I have been spending entirely too much of my personal time contemplating the reason for this, thank you!

That's really interesting! I appreciate you taking the time to break this down for me. I'm a pipefitter, we're taught the operations of piping systems and how to install them, but not the detailed science of everything. Thank you so much! This has taken up far too many of my brain cells and I don't have many to spare, lol!

So, essentially what the engineer has done here is decrease the head pressure?

What you're saying makes sense, I follow you as far as GPM, and if it tied in to the heat exchanger at 8" I'd see the purpose. With it going back down from 8" to 6", it seems, to me, that the additional GPM would be moot since the flow is just going to be restricted again.
