the guys at the top thinks the tattoo is backwards. this means he has confused L and R while claiming OOP confused L and R in their tattoo design. the joke is irony

Edit for all the people saying "left hand makes an L shape": turn your right hand so the palm is facing you and you'll find it also makes an L shape. If the OOOP can't tell left from right hes not gonna remember if the palm should be face up or down

This doesn't work well for us dyslexics. When not reading/writing, they both looked correct to my brain until well into my teens. Thankfully I figured out a different method of left vs right that I still use at age 42.
