That tattoo is actually probably the only thing here that doesn’t make me cringe.

It was also his decision to publicize this decision in order to initiate reactions from general people on the internet by uploading this photo.
 
Clearly this guy is craving attention, hence the hairstyle, tattoos and extreme piercings. And in my opinion, an individual that does such things to their appearance to gain the attention of others, looses the right to complain when they receive negative attention as well.  
Especially since that is exactly what they are striving for when adopting extreme ‘styles’ that generally are shrouded in controversy. Like that giant earlobe hole, or that haircut.

the flames make it more manly

I’ll say this, it’s a very well done tattoo.

Everyone is allowed an opinion. We’re even allowed to be complete bastards about this guy’s decision. Whatcha gonna do? Oh yeah, accept it.

Well as much that i dislike this, because he could regret it.  
As much i despise you (not all of you)guys under me. You are also fucked up. Its his decision.

@Tumblr Feminism Is A joke  
He ruined his ear lobes, it’s not like this is much worse

With all that shitty piercing that is just another drop in all of cringe worth apperance :D

man so many people are getting rainbow dash tattoo…
 
in the worst possible places.

What the heck is that inside his hear!? It looks like a blue-green fungus!?
 
As for the tattoo being a bad idea, I’d say it is in a pretty bad place. That is gonna be one high maintenance tattoo! Gotta constantly shave for it to be visible, and if you nick yourself when shaving, it will make a hole in the tattoo.
 
Though the bright side is, if it gets to the point where it looks bad, or he doesn’t want it visible anymore, all he has to do is let his hair grow out.

Dude… no.
 
If you’re gonna get a fandom tattoo, get something subtle.

Love the shading on that.

Yeah.. this is when obsession becomes a bad thing. You’ll regret getting that when MLP’s hype dies down
