I don’t know why, but I wrote about the vinylized, digitized, and original Charmander tattoo

Two days ago, a Redditor named yllwsnow2 posted a picture of a Charmander tattoo that his friend tattooed on himself while under the influence of alcohol and prescription pills. The tattoo (that looks like the Tim Burton Charmander) was pretty awful, but charming.

Since the original post, Redditor kaldrazidrim for some unknown reason digitized the tattoo. Then solbrothers, again for some unknown reason, vinylized the digitized tattoo. After that, things quickly spiraled out of control. It was turned into a plush by BBZZZZTT, then built in Besiege (only to inevitably burn to the ground). Someone even made a shirt out of it.

I don't even know how deep it goes anymore. This "sh*tty Charmander tattoo" has become something more, something too powerful to be stopped. Let's take a look at the the stages of Charmander:

Step 1 post sh*tty Charmander tattoo:

Step 2 digitize the sh*tty tattoo:

Step 3 vinylize the digitized image of the sh*tty tattoo:

Step 3 make a plush out of the the vinylized, digitized sh*tty tattoo:

Step 4 make a gif out of the plushied, vinylized digitized sh*tty tatoo:

Once this hits Facebook it has come full circle and may peacefully fade off into oblivion.

Thank you Sephtis for the cover image.
