i dont quite trust the man with the picture of Joseph Stalin

[–]PyrokineticDew 14 points15 points ago

To be fair, he's probably a Russian that survived a Gulag.

[–]right_foot 11 points12 points ago

Wait, wouldn't that be like a Holocaust survivor getting a tattoo of Hitler?

[–]DonnyDreamliner 2 points3 points ago

Nope. Lots of small-time Russian criminals liked Stalin. Worshipped him, even. He was seen as this Robin Hood-type character who was taking money from the rich industrialists and giving it to the poverty-stricken workers.

edit: Obviously, yes, quite a few Russian prisoners probably weren't so fond of Stalin as well

[–]druckus 0 points1 point ago

I believe I found it. Its called the Order of the Patriotic War. It was given to millions of people for fighting in the Eastern front of WWII under the Soviets. It is essentially a participation award. I particularly fucking bad ass participation award... But a participation award nonetheless.

[–]arczi 0 points1 point ago

He could also be Georgian. They still had a statue of Stalin in his birthplace up until 2010.

[–]The_Mad_Highlander 60 points61 points ago

Have the 2nd one bathed and sent to my room.

[–]dlalternative 19 points20 points ago

She has a blog full of much more revealing pictures. NSFW

[–]SalemWolf 8 points9 points ago

Sweet mother of god, I would actually do her. She's really hot...what the fuck is wrong with me?

[–]dlalternative 7 points8 points ago

Nothing. Nothing at all.

[–]Jparaly 5 points6 points ago

Total GILF

[–]Ghooble 1 point2 points ago

Jesus tap dancing Christ in a cum stained purple sun dress. I have always said I'd never ever utter the word GILF...I need to go rethink things.

[–]Tryanosaurus 3 points4 points ago

Why you gotta make me fap to an older lady? I felt really creepy afterward. Especially because I know I'll do it again later.

[–]Fibonaccius_Maximus 1 point2 points ago

For an older lady, she's got a rockin' bod. The tats just add to what she's already got going on.

[–]DeliciousTea 0 points1 point ago

[–]sherlocktheholmes 16 points17 points ago

That really looks like Helen Mirren, though she doesn't have any tattoos, it seems.

[–]The_Blurst_Of_Times 11 points12 points ago

GODDAMN

[–]Anovan 5 points6 points ago

Fun fact: She actually has a very small tattoo on one of her hands.

[–]akimbojack 3 points4 points ago

I was thinking the same thing.

On another note, DAYYYYYUUUUUMMMMM!

[–]doublechucklehaha 0 points1 point ago

I would be embarassed if my grandma wore a bikini outdoors. No matter how hot she was.

[–]blackpanther6389 8 points9 points ago

I want her next!

[–]pRICH22 53 points54 points ago

What about the people who say, "What about when YOU'RE older?"

[–]gopudge 141 points142 points ago

Nope. And why is this in r/funny? Were you looking for r/pics and got lost?

[–]TheNotoriousENT 44 points45 points ago

I believe I saw this post in r/tattoos this morning. So not only does it not belong here, but it is a repost ಠ_ಠ

[–]smartzie 13 points14 points ago

Yeah, I just saw this a few hours ago....OP could have at least labeled it as a x-post.

[–]MrSm1lez 10 points11 points ago

Evidently you didn't see the nipples on the man in picture five.

[–]RemyTaveras 8 points9 points ago

2.. I'd hit that. idgaf

[–]mockingjay137 16 points17 points ago

The dude with the muttonchops is a badass.

[–]WarAndRuin 2 points3 points ago

Yeah, I didn't know Cave Johnson had tattoos

[–]Montgomrie 1 point2 points ago

I hope I look 1/4 as good as him when I'm his age.

[–]Elerabin21k 10 points11 points ago

2. Gilf. I never thought I would every without coercion use that phrase and mean it. Hmmm

[–]kawthuldrok 2 points3 points ago

/agree I don't know how I feel about this....

[–]Elerabin21k 1 point2 points ago

I know right? I mean it has shattered my world... but in a good way.

[–]iancrawford24 -1 points0 points ago

*Gmilf

[–]Ghooble 1 point2 points ago

[–]Mighty_Trip 41 points42 points ago

I don't think they look cool. Maybe that's just me though.

[–]juzcallmeg0d 15 points16 points ago

Piggybacking this comment.

Its not just you. As I went down the list, they all pretty much look terrible. OP has proven to me and I'm sure a lot of others that the question "What about when you're older?" is something people should really think about before making permanent decisions about their body.

[–]threeonone 4 points5 points ago

I think these people in their 70's wouldn't look great either way. Most of them are not usually scantily dressed on a normal basis. So we wouldn't have to see either way.

[–]the__itis 0 points1 point ago

that one chick looks alright, the rest look like they have had an interesting life, but frankly they look repulsive and dirty.

[–]overlordmusti 4 points5 points ago

Whats with the picture of Stalin?

[–]SchrodingerE 0 points1 point ago

Yeah WTF? I came here for the same question. edit: grammar

[–]MrJake10 7 points8 points ago

Not sure why this is supposed to be funny. But, all those people sure look like they have lived. And I mean that in a good way.

[–]Put_It_On_Her_Tab 28 points29 points ago

Still no

[–]mathius123 18 points19 points ago

Umm, thanks for proving them right?

[–]d_n__l 12 points13 points ago

No thanks.

[–]nicko378 4 points5 points ago

those are some pretty gnarly dudes

[–]easycumeasyhoe 8 points9 points ago

I don't understand the point you are trying to make. If people want to get tattoos I'm not going to look down on them for it.

[–]ivanmarsh 13 points14 points ago

Neither am I. But I'm not going to pretend they look good either. Most tattoos are horrible.

[–]RunsWithBaboons 2 points3 points ago

Soooo...Helen Mirren has a full-length side tat?

[–]pilsner407 0 points1 point ago

I think it's safe to say everyone wants to see more of #2...can anyone oblige?

[–]robynbanks 2 points3 points ago

Your older what? FINISH YOUR SENTENCE BRO

[–]squireofrnew 0 points1 point ago

I am not dissuaded.

[–]fugelthang 4 points5 points ago

These people look horrible.

[–]skull_n_bones 10 points11 points ago

[–]Rixxer 0 points1 point ago

Those actually look really bad. Old people should really just wear clothes...

[–]mindaika 3 points4 points ago

I've used this one before, but this seems like a good place to use it again.

One day my coworker was looking at my tattoo and said "How do you think you arms are going to look when you're 80?"

I said, "How do you think your arms are going to look when you're 80?"

[–]Nateosis 4 points5 points ago

i have the most unsettling boner right now

.....i think thats enough reddit for today

[–]Charlielx 2 points3 points ago

What is this "enough reddit" that you speak of?

[–]Nateosis 1 point2 points ago

yeahhhhh it didnt work. . . Im still here

[–]Scarmanz 1 point2 points ago

Still fapped to #2 what a fox.

[–]whisk3rs 3 points4 points ago

Except, OP, I bet that you'll be nowhere as cool as any of these people. Well, maybe as ratty as #4.

[–]blackpanther6389 3 points4 points ago

Number 2 I would definitely bone!

[–]pilsner407 1 point2 points ago

yep

[–]whotoldbrecht 2 points3 points ago

But why is this in r/funny?

Also, your grammar

[–]HDRoy 0 points1 point ago

They look fucking ridiculous, how is this an argument in favor of tatoos??

[–]johnyg 0 points1 point ago

immm pretty sure this just proves those people right... that was gross

[–]Ohyou_stop 0 points1 point ago

All of those people look awful. Congratulations, you didn't prove anything!

[–]adhdkidx 2 points3 points ago

What's the point of this? This just shows how much you would look like a raisin with ink.

[–]KittygoBam 0 points1 point ago

You'd look like a raisin without ink as well.

[–]hperez1432 2 points3 points ago

Reddit has a voting system for a reason. If you don't like what is posted, downvote, shut the fuck up, and move on. Also, this

[–]I_TYPE_IN_ALL_CAPS 0 points1 point ago

COMPLAINING ABOUT PEOPLE COMPLAINING ON AN INTERNET SITE BUILT SPECIFICALLY FOR DISCUSSING LINKS IS STUPID.

AND YES, COMPLAINCEPTION.

[–]ssdestroyer -3 points-2 points ago

faggot

[–]Optimum_Pooper 2 points3 points ago

If my tattoos look half as good as theirs do when I'm their age, I'll be happy.

[–]BACullen 0 points1 point ago

This might sound weird but sunscreen.....put it on the tattoos so that the color stays vibrant my mom has had a tattoo for 18 years and it still looks like she just got it and this is coming from her 19 year old daughter

[–]ExTex 0 points1 point ago

This will be the norm in 30 years. Whether or not one supports tattoos, it is an individual choice, and not subject to scrutiny by any others.

[–]turok123 0 points1 point ago

These people look like shit.

[–]IAMFM 1 point2 points ago

my older what ?

[–]turbie 1 point2 points ago

I am in my 30's and I work out a lot and maintain my weight. I do this in hopes that I look as good (maybe even better) as the lady in pic #2. If my body looks like that at her age, I will be happy.

[–]Rixxer -1 points0 points ago

I'm sure if you had something on your body for years you'd learn to live with it.

[–]smoger 0 points1 point ago

my theory is that at the age of 80, if the thing im worried about is how my tattoos look, im doing pretty well.

[–]Ladranix 0 points1 point ago

3rd one down looks kind of really badass to me for some reason.

[–]Oximoron1122 0 points1 point ago

I like the last guy. "ZA STALINA!!!"

[–]reagan2016 1 point2 points ago

When whose older?

[–]1sttymeredditguy 0 points1 point ago

What about when my older what?

[–]pesterchum 0 points1 point ago

I'm waiting until I'm circa 40 to get tattoos all over my body, so they'll look nice and fresh compared to my saggy wrinkly flesh.

[–]nwzimmer 1 point2 points ago

Uh, I don't think you're making the point you think you are...

[–]t_hab -1 points0 points ago

I believe this is what those people were thinking when they said "what about when you are older?"

[–]AgreesWithIdiots 0 points1 point ago

No. 6 looks like Wagner.

[–]VulturePR0 0 points1 point ago

All of those old men look like they would kick my ass...

[–]DebacleRoberts 1 point2 points ago

3rd from the top is bad as fuck. BAD AS FUCK.

[–]Phoequinox 0 points1 point ago

Three out of four grannies are hot.

It'd be four out of four, but smoker's teeth.

[–]anthrocide 0 points1 point ago

It seems to give them a reason to stay in somewhat shape.

[–]petrichor_28 1 point2 points ago

it's likely people will think you're being sarcastic and saying these people look bad considering a lot of people dislike tattoos on older folks, as well as the fact that you posted this in funny instead of pics or something else

[–]HattoriDunzo 1 point2 points ago

How is this funny? Not seeing anything especially humorous in here.

[–]Eldres 1 point2 points ago

why the f**k is this posted on /r/funny??? not funny in the slightest yet still gets 600 upvotes, take it else where

[–]caresquared 0 points1 point ago

So true. But these people are so much more badass than most people in the generations after them.

[–]CoolMouthHat 0 points1 point ago

Pic #3. This motherfucker looks like he could knock your block off.

[–]testreker 1 point2 points ago

I think the question still stands since the follow up on that statement is, "its going to look like old wrinkly shit".

[–]nareonith 0 points1 point ago

If you get to the point where your skin is saggin off I really don't think your tattoo is gonna be the most prominent problem.

[–]Devanismyname 0 points1 point ago

Hey everyone, look at me. I think old people with tattoos are cool. Upvotes pl0x.

[–]aStonedSquirtle 0 points1 point ago

I dunno, some of these guys look nasty, but some look downright badass.

[–]Seepferdchen 0 points1 point ago

Hey guys, here are some old people with tattoos, to prove my case that nobody has ever regretted a tattoo!

[–]Stefferdiddle 0 points1 point ago

Man, I could have lived without having seen the droopy guest towel hangers.

[–]jpiglet 0 points1 point ago

When you're older you learn how to use the correct "your/you're."

[–]Bigjon84 0 points1 point ago

Cant tell if this is an argument for or against tattoos..

[–]Imjoeandiliketoparty 0 points1 point ago

Not even funny and a repost.

[–]castleclouds 0 points1 point ago

If you really want a tattoo that badly I won't stop you

[–]Fort_Kick_Ass 0 points1 point ago

I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul

[–]70Charger 1 point2 points ago

"What 'bout when [you're] older[?]"

"You'll be gross, but at least you'll still look like a retard."

[–]truthhurts64 0 points1 point ago

Hey wanna know a secret? I don't care what some random uppity douchebag on the Internet will think about my tattoos in 40 years

[–]Eric12345 0 points1 point ago

How would someone come to the conclusion that this should be posted in /r/funny?

[–]SirBilliumMcLovin 0 points1 point ago

I find this quite pleasing to masturbate to

[–]trojanfan7 0 points1 point ago

I am legitimately scared of every person in this album

[–]cinnabon64 0 points1 point ago

I just saw into my mum's future

[–]bettformore 0 points1 point ago

i hate to say it but they look horrible. Like a spray painted car that no one cleaned up

[–]The_guy_behind_you 0 points1 point ago

Yup pretty damn weird looking

[–]lachlan334 0 points1 point ago

Is this supposed to be in defence of tattoos? Because it isn't working.

[–]Duraace 0 points1 point ago

Meh. Just makes people look dirty usually, I mean if you get them all over the place and really thick.

[–]stillghoti 0 points1 point ago

I actually think the first woman in the photoset is very beautiful. I personally think too many tattoos do not look nice. However, I still think that these pictures are wonderful because the owners of the tattoos still wear them proudly. And that's pretty sweet.

[–]fowydrn 0 points1 point ago

There are two kinds of tattoo: the kind that look silly when you get old, and the kind you get in Russian prison.

[–]u83rmensch 0 points1 point ago

what message was this supposed to send me because I am not convinced full body tattoos look good still.

[–]TrMark -2 points-1 points ago

This is why I will never get a tattoo, they look terrible when you get older although the last guy looks kinda badass.

[–]TheLittleLebowski 3 points4 points ago

This is why I have tattoos. To annoy the shit out of losers like you in 40 years.

[–]Cambridge_university -1 points0 points ago

They'll still look hideous.

[–]MutantstyleZ 1 point2 points ago

this is some facebook level shit

[–]xgibbyx -1 points0 points ago

Fuck yeah! That is all.

[–]tnicholson -1 points0 points ago

Fucking exactly.

[–]Phantom31 -1 points0 points ago

Still doesn't look good ,and I doubt these people got those tattoos in their teen years . 9/10 they are just elderly rebels who've got those In the past 5 years .

[–]MPSDragline 1 point2 points ago

Some of those tattoos looked ok, but the rest were just, no. Just a saggy, wrinkly, distorted no.

[–]Stackles -1 points0 points ago

So badass

[–]YO_ITS_TYRESE -2 points-1 points ago

so are you proving that tattoos look like shit when you are old?

[–]ivanmarsh -1 points0 points ago

I think that just proved their point about asking that.

[–]sharkmeet -1 points0 points ago

My tattoo artist puts it amazingly:

I love tattoos because they're permanent ink that remind us of our own impermanence.

Link for a video of him talking about it cuz he's rad.

Links to the work he did on my arm so far. 1 2

Edit: My sleeve isn't finished yet, otherwise I'd show you the rest of it, but only the line work is finished. Shit is expensive.

[–]HauntsYourProstate -1 points0 points ago

Yep, never getting tattoos.

[–]JoePurdy -1 points0 points ago

They still look stupid? What's your point?

[–]TH0UGHTP0LICE -2 points-1 points ago

Sooooo.....not only do these people look trashy but they're old?

Thanks for proving everyone right, OP.

Tattoos: Natures way of saying "Don't hire me".

[–]truthhurts64 0 points1 point ago

Reddit, the internets way of saying I'm a condescending dickhead with anonymity

[–]Onzez -3 points-2 points ago

Why does that last guy have a picture of Stalin in the background?

[–]Darknezz19 0 points1 point ago

maybe he feels bad for fighting another mans war

[–]beev -1 points0 points ago

These photos are awesome. They aren't funny at all. I'm subscribed to r/humanporn (beautiful photos of people) and I thought these were posted to that sub-reddit.

[–]jt25151 -2 points-1 points ago

*You're.

[–]drosphilia_holocaust -2 points-1 points ago

Maybe not funny but plenty awesome!

[–]apiculturalist -4 points-3 points ago

[–]judokalinker -3 points-2 points ago

Old people are already ugly, no need to care about tattoos at that point.
