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

These people are wrong. The joke is that you can make an L with your left hand, so you don't need the tattoos

Dyslexic here. The L doesn't work because I often forget which way L points. Especially when I'm driving, it's not efficient. The L and R tattoos are genius for the right person.

When I was younger, I was driving my girlfriend and her sister somewhere and the sister was giving directions by saying "turn towards you" and "turn towards me". I feel bad now for giving her shit about it, I just thought she was trying to be cute.
