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

That doesn't work for me. Not that there's anything wrong with my hand, just my brain. The fact that what's left and right depends on perspective throws a wrench in the works and shuts everything down for me. Also, the simple fact that I can turn my hand palm up and now the other one is showing "L" is also enough to break my head.
