The subreddit r/AskReddit is a place full of interesting and thought-provoking discussions, and user u/PaLiaRoTH's post was no exception. Their question, "What tattoos scream 'I have no creativity?'" had Redditors sharing their opinions and experiences on the subject.

While some folks argued that tattoos are a personal choice and the only meaning that matters is that of the individual, others couldn't help but say that certain designs have become overdone and the lack of originality might backfire on the "wearers" in the form of regret.

Some of the top answers in the thread included pop culture references like Baby Yoda and Harley Quinn, as well as widely known phrases such as "live, laugh, love" and "only God can judge me." Overall, the post sparked a lively conversation and showcased people's diverse thoughts and tastes in body art.

"Seems A Tad Done To Death": 30 Tattoo Designs That Scream “I Have No Creativity,” According To People Online I'm told mine has no creativity.

It's a fist-sized peach, between my upper shoulder blades. I got it for my 50th birthday, to honor the childhood nickname my Opa gave me. He's been gone 29 years, I still miss him every day.

I've been told the next one I'm getting is similarly boring. A pomegranate with 6 seeds missing and my granddaughter's name and date of birth. Her name is Korra, an epithet of Persephone meaning "Heart".

I'm OK with being "boring". My ink is for ME.

    "Seems A Tad Done To Death": 30 Tattoo Designs That Scream “I Have No Creativity,” According To People Online An ex boss had his own name in Olde English script down the inside of his forearm. I'd been working with him for months before I saw it, the conversation went as such.

    'What's that?'

    'A tattoo.'

    'Well yeah, but what does it say?'

    'Darren.'

    'Why have you got your own name tattooed on you?'

    'I wanted a tattoo for years, so my wife bought me one for my 40th.'

    'And that's what you came up with after 40 years?'

    Needless to say, I was fired soon afterwards.

    "Seems A Tad Done To Death": 30 Tattoo Designs That Scream “I Have No Creativity,” According To People Online I’m a tattoo artist, For me it’s three types of people.
    1. The ones who are getting them only because it’s a current trend. They always come back wanting it covered or wanting it lasered off.
    2. The ones who bring me something directly off Pinterest. And have 0 interest in letting me design it my way. I actually tell these people I’m not interested and direct them to another artist. That only happens every once in a while now.
    3. Patriotic tattoos. Cornbread dudes walk in the shop wanting a battle flag and a 3% logo. I either try to talk them out of it or tell them I’m not doing it. Regardless of how much money it’d make me.
    There is many more I could go on about but those 3 stick out the most. Everyone has opinions these are just mine

    It's kind of an insult to injury thing in my eyes. I'm not against peoples rights to tattooing, I just find Hebrew tattoos yelling "look at me" im either that Jewish or hey I really like this old testament looking s**t. Kind of like Sanskrit, can you actually read any of that Angelina Jolie?

    ... I always get reminded of that dude that wanted "Asian Girl Lover" and got tattooed "Foreign Pervert" instead. Serves him right, very likely, and is just hilarious. Never got the reasoning behind having something written on me in a language I cannot read or write or speak or understand, and that isn't even extinct yet - that may be a different case, because nobody will read "pervertere peregrino" in the language they actually speak, but then again ... why even use a language, a thing meant to transmit thought, that I am not able to use, but could learn, and somehow decided not to? Why? What's the reason that this is better than just using english, german, french, ...?

    "Seems A Tad Done To Death": 30 Tattoo Designs That Scream “I Have No Creativity,” According To People Online I have a colleague who has a whole collection of what I call “Starbucks tattoos”, as in they cost pretty much like a Frappuccino and take as long to ink as a barista to make your order.

    The ones that are visible are:
    -paper airplane with swirly dotted “travel lines”

    -minimalist sun (circle and lines going outwards)

    -minimalist wave (just a single line making a sort of wave shape.

    -song verse (for the life of me I can’t recall what song) in a generic calligraphy alphabet.

    -infinite sign with word in it (a name, in almost illegible script)

    I think that these are more or less the standard catalogue of the “I’m not like other girls” type of tattoos.

    I am a tattoo artist and absolutely hate the Lion with a crown tattoo. Thankfully I think the trend is dying out now but it’s always the people with no creativity trying to convince themselves they’re the ‘king’
    Always reminds me of a J.Cole song
    ‘Be wary of any man that claims (he’s a king)
    Because deep down he clings onto the need for power
    In reality he’s a coward’
    Don’t think this answer really fits the brief but I’m just ranting

    I'm dying laughing here because apparently almost all of my tattoos scream no creativity. Whatever, I like them, and they have meaning to me. The only one I have ever slightly regretted is the butterfly tramp stamp because of the placement and quality, but even that one has meaning to me: 1) my sister who had recently passed loved butterflies and 2) I got it in downtown Hollywood on a whim, with a friend and while on vacation. It was stupid, impulsive, and it looks terrible, but it's a great memory. I plan to incorporate it into a new tattoo someday, I just haven't decided what I want yet.

    (My friend's choice was a kanji character, btw. But at least she knows it's the right one.)

    A lot of those old guys were probably in the Navy a long time ago and the tattoos faded badly. Good ones were done by Sailor Jerry. You can google his art

    In Colombia I would say Owls, Dreamcatchers and mandalas, everybody here tattoo themselves just because they want to belong to the tattoed people circle!

    I like tattoo however I haven't tattoed myself as I haven't found anything so that means that much to me.

    Fun fact: It's called the eye of Horus and it's the eye of the Falcon headed god Horus who lost the eye when he fought Zeth, the eye was later restored and now represents healing, well being, and protection
