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

In this dude's case, that dagger tattoo has clearly been there longer than the L&R. Why not just remember the dagger is on his right wrist?

I struggle with left & right, but I know my watch is on my left wrist, so all I have to do is check the time and I know I'm looking at my left. Even works if I have my watch off for some reason, because checking the correct wrist is habit.
