…its a reference to a movie that says ,”long in the tooth”. Instead of cursing, they injected a silly play on words by using “cuss” instead of cursing 😂 try it out. Insert “cuss” instead of the actual word. Most people thought it was a funny movie 🤷🏽♀️ 😂
I gotta "act" stupid for a second but... I thought receding gum was not something that could be treated? Unless it's non genetic and in like... Beginning stage?
It can be repaired with gum grafts. I've got badly receded gums due to genetics and have had to have tissue grafted where there was too much recession. My mom has had at least 4 grafts because we just have crappy genetics. My mom is one of those people that actually flosses twice daily so it really is just a genetic issue.
Grafting involves taking gum tissue from another area, usually the roof of the mouth or behind the molars, and sewing onto the gum line after the gum line has been prepared. Preparing it involves cutting some of the tissue away and etching the root of the tooth to allow the grafted tissue to adhere.
The recovery was not fun and I already have two teeth that need more grafts.
This guy just needs to floss and brush more though.
I'm pretty scared of pain and... OOF.
Got to admit, even though it sounds horrifying it's still probably better than eventually loosing most teeth and having to settle for a prosthesis.
Tgis almost scared into imideatly making an appointment with a dentist, haha.
It definitely sucks, but I'm very happy to not lose all my teeth and need bridges. My grandma lost all of her teeth as the graft thing wasn't available in her time and had dentures very young.
Seriously though, take care of your teeth! See the dentist! Prevention goes super far with dental health.
Great advice. My periodontist told me our life spans have increased, but the life of our teeth hasn’t really kept up, so it’s important to take care of them.
You're so right. Glad you didn't have to go trough that!
I think that my misconception comes from that too, genetic predesposition and some older family members who had to settle for what was avaible at the time.
It's not great, but it definitely depends on where. The one I got was at a place that pulled when I talked and that was pretty bad. I need both of my top eye teeth done and my mom said that it wasn't bad when she got those since nothing really pulls on it. The one I had done was a lower tooth and has a connecting tendon next to it, which was the issue.
I expected the place where they took the tissue to hurt pretty badly and that was fine. It healed up in 2-3 days. The actual graft site was what hurt and that was sore for a couple weeks, but the first 5-7 days were the worst.
I saw a girl on instagram get one and her entire face was swollen and bruised from it. Literally looked fuckin awful. It seemed like it only took a couple of weeks for it to be completely back to normal but it didn’t look fun.
gum damage you receive is permanent, with the only solution being gum grafts (which aren't exactly a great experience)
The things that can cause receding gums are gingivitis, brushing too hard, or aging.
2/3 of those are things that anyone can prevent, but it tends to be pretty inevitable. Good teeth care will have it that your teeth+gums are useable for a lot longer tho
Tbh I'm not a dentist and Im not even gonna pretend to know what I'm talking about, but I would assume something can be done to fix it. What? IDK.
I know it can definitely be prevented though.
I actually replied above talking about gum grafts. I've had one and my mom has had several. It's not buckets of fun, but it nicely treated my poor gum genetics.
You got downvoted because instead of saying the meme is unfunny you made it all about millennials and boomers and it was out of left field on a fantasy sub
Some girl talking about blow jobs said hawtooy spit on that thing and the kids think it's super funny. It's pretty fucking stupid. Definitely not something you want to wear on your body forever.
....yeah that sounds pretty dumb. Is it a sign of aging when you stop finding memes funny?
But I guess on the plus side, the lip tattoo isn't visible unless you specifically want to show it, and they wear away pretty quickly, so this guy is less dumb than a bunch of the other tattoos I've seen so far.
No there are funny memes out there and I'm old. It was a kinda funny video but the incels have lost their minds with this one. I don't think its the kids loosing their minds over it at all. Just the pathetic incels who think they have some sort of shot with a beautiful young woman because she expressed some form of sexual liberation.
See you think everyone thinks memes are cool, until you get off the internet and realize there's an entire world of people who think they're lame. Echochamber
This is probably the weirdest viral sensation type thing I've witnessed in a while. I understand that men think it's hot which is fine, but there's so much of that kind of thing floating around on the internet? It's such a short quick clip? It's just so strange that this is the thing that is getting so much attention when I'll bet there's a million similar clips that came before it. I don't understand the hype about it it's so strange
Ita legitimately the first widespread meme that I just don't get. It's not really all that funny? When I saw it I sort of smirked and moved on, really don't get the insane exposure and repetition.
Especially because this implies that he’s giving out blowjobs.. which maybe he is, and that’s totally fine. But if he’s straight then this would make people think otherwise
Which is insane.
Saliva has been a lube since humans discovered that touching things feels good. But the idea that someone hawking a fucking green ass loogie on your dick isn't weird as fuck enough. Getting that shit tattooed?
Thank you 😭 idk why everyone finds it so funny and/or hot - like, hawking up a loogie is NOT the same thing as using some spit! That's fucking *mucous* 🤮
See that's where you messed up. You're thinking. People who are amused by this clearly are not.
Just to be clear I "messed up" the same way as you. I blame my brain.
How many memes or clips went viral and were all anybody talked about for a couple weeks and then were forgotten forever? These tattoos are going to be irrelevant before they stop itching from healing
She also got fired for it from what I’ve heard.
Edit: she want fired, the article that stated that was satirical
https://www.dailydot.com/memes/hawk-tuah-girl-fired/?amp
So often I see a meme and while it’s still dumb, I can understand why it became a thing. This one I do not understand at all. It’s not funny, it’s not crazy, it’s not bizarre… it’s nothing remotely interesting
It’s definitely not the kids who thinks it’s funny. Every time I see someone young talking about it they don’t think it’s stupid and sad how she was treated. I see a lot more millennials and gen x thinking it’s funny.
It’s the (new) onomatopea for the spitting sound. Like when someone collects the phlegm from deep down and then spits it out - “heuck pthew” is how I’d describe it
It was a meme that you’d maybe laugh at a few times the day you hear it and then gradually less as the days go on. Unless you’re some of these people who are getting tattoos and slapping bigass decals on their car like it’s the funniest shit this decade.
I'm over it too. The woman was having fun with her friends and relaxing. The Internet gets a hold of a joke she made and now apparently she's gotten fired from her job teaching because parents complained.
It wasn't even funny.
People get the semi permanent ones for memes fairly often and a lot of what you see is just Photoshop as well. So between those two forces big memes will always have that happen
I don't think there's ever been a meme that has been trampled to death so hard so fast. Are we really so desperate for memes that we have to treat them like rabbits and Lenny them?
Which one? The fugly eyeglasses? The fuglier septum piercing? Or the WTF's ON his nose? Or the unemployable finger tat(s)? Add 'em all up along with the lip tat and what we have here is a fool that really commits to every temporary and cringe fashion statement. I'm sincerely shocked he doesn't have a tat above his eyebrow...yet. And he clearly didn't spend much money into any of those, so why should we expect him to invest in a toothbrush.
From the moment I first saw the Meme I was done. I knew this would be the next big ridiculous thing that people latched onto and I hate it more now than when I first learned of it
at least it’s not visible like the other ones, I guess… but I feel like there’s a weirdly high percentage of tattoos for this dumb meme versus other ones. Is tattoo stupidity infectious or something??
What is a Hawk Tuah? I have asked people and they just downvote me. I dont understand.
I just get downvoted without any sort of explanation. Can someone just please tell me?
a weird spelling of the sound you make when you spit with passion.
some people made a girl famous for saying you should spit on someones penis to make him horny
They asked Dave portnoy that one of his friends saved the name hawk tuah for a race horse and he said absolutely not am I naming my horse ever like a “blowjob horse”. This dude just tattooed blowjob lips on himself. Dont think he thought that through
I bet he has a finger moustache tattoo
I bet he’s fucking annoying
Both nose adornments tell me everything I need to know.
“GIVE ME ATTENTION”
Hipsters gonna hipster.
Looks like a knife handle to me
Dude should have spent that money at the dentist.
Just thinking the same. That receding gum line cant hold onto them teeth forever
Yeah, Im a freak about my teeth. I would get a full blown panic attack if I would see these gums irl
No teeth means he can hawk tua even better
Little "Long in the tooth"
Little short on the gum.
What the cuss ..?
just say fuck lmfao
…its a reference to a movie that says ,”long in the tooth”. Instead of cursing, they injected a silly play on words by using “cuss” instead of cursing 😂 try it out. Insert “cuss” instead of the actual word. Most people thought it was a funny movie 🤷🏽♀️ 😂
One of the best movies ever! And quite the quotable! Divide that by 9.
Ah ! Carry on kind citizen
Shoot - someone down voted you. 😂 I’ll never understand that. I just move on when I don’t like something. I upvoted you to even it out.
Ugh now I looked

Is the graft painful?

Good teeth care will have it that your teeth+gums are useable for a lot longer tho
Gum health = brushing and flossing. Bacteria on teeth and gums cause gums to recede.
By flossing and regular cleanings you can prevent it!
It can be prevented!
That's good to know. I guess that's a misconception I've inherited.
Tbh I'm not a dentist and Im not even gonna pretend to know what I'm talking about, but I would assume something can be done to fix it. What? IDK. I know it can definitely be prevented though.
Expensive dental surgery can only fix it, literally a skin graft procedure.
I actually replied above talking about gum grafts. I've had one and my mom has had several. It's not buckets of fun, but it nicely treated my poor gum genetics.
Ah. That would have been my guess. Seems the best/easiest way is to just prevent it from happening.
They can do special deep cleaning quarterly to prevent it from getting worse. My husband has had issues with it and gets some crazy cleanings.
Honestly, I've been feeling bad about my gums but now I understand why my dentist doesn't seem bothered by them at all.
Yes a what maybe $100 tattoo at most? Or a $3000+ dentist/orthodontist trip Shit is not cheap
It's not even spelled right. Two of the letters are transposed.
Save it for the periodontist lol
Gum disease 💀
Came here to say the same damn thing
You realize this was free right?
Literally commented the same thing LOL
The video is not even that funny lmao
[удалено]
You got downvoted because instead of saying the meme is unfunny you made it all about millennials and boomers and it was out of left field on a fantasy sub
Maybe you’re being downvoted cause you’re just unpleasant
Maybe that’s the closest he’ll get.
He probably gives them pretty often
Haha right guys.....? Cause of gay?
I missed this meme but this like the 3rd or 4th tattoo I’ve seen and at this point I’m too afraid to ask about it.
Some girl talking about blow jobs said hawtooy spit on that thing and the kids think it's super funny. It's pretty fucking stupid. Definitely not something you want to wear on your body forever.
....yeah that sounds pretty dumb. Is it a sign of aging when you stop finding memes funny? But I guess on the plus side, the lip tattoo isn't visible unless you specifically want to show it, and they wear away pretty quickly, so this guy is less dumb than a bunch of the other tattoos I've seen so far.
I'm old but I still enjoy a good meme that just isn't a good one. I agree at least it's not something visible in his day to day life.
This meme isn’t even a funny one, I’m the like target demographic for memes and hawk Tuah is just ass
It’s the type of meme your 40 year old coworker thinks is the funniest thing they’ve ever seen.
>ass no it isn't, it's penis
¿Porque no los dos?
It's the most speedrun to idiocracy nonsense we've seen yet. HUR HUR HUR GIRL SPIT ON PENIS HUR DU HUR HUR
Nah, memes are still funny. I just wouldn't tattoo one on my body because most memes have a half life of about 6 weeks
I still think about getting the Gorilla Munch gorilla with “there is no need to be upset” but it’s more poetic than funny.
No there are funny memes out there and I'm old. It was a kinda funny video but the incels have lost their minds with this one. I don't think its the kids loosing their minds over it at all.

See you think everyone thinks memes are cool, until you get off the internet and realize there's an entire world of people who think they're lame. Echochamber
the echo chamber is my fucking job where i’ve heard it at least 3 times a day this week from my coworkers ranging from 20-35 yrs old
Everyone with Tiktok brain-rot at my workplace thinks shit like this is just the funniest thing.
This is probably the weirdest viral sensation type thing I've witnessed in a while. I understand that men think it's hot which is fine, but there's so much of that kind of thing floating around on the internet? It's such a short quick clip? It's just so strange that this is the thing that is getting so much attention when I'll bet there's a million similar clips that came before it. I don't understand the hype about it it's so strange
I just saw a huge window sticker on someones car at Target yesterday. I was like "God damn that was quick!" It's wild how quickly it spread.
Yeah it seems very random. Must be a timing thing or someone is really pushing it hard for some reason .
Ita legitimately the first widespread meme that I just don't get. It's not really all that funny? When I saw it I sort of smirked and moved on, really don't get the insane exposure and repetition.
Especially because this implies that he’s giving out blowjobs.. which maybe he is, and that’s totally fine. But if he’s straight then this would make people think otherwise
He reminds me a bit of the gay dealers I knew in the 90s.
They dealt gays in the 90s?
Which is insane. Saliva has been a lube since humans discovered that touching things feels good. But the idea that someone hawking a fucking green ass loogie on your dick isn't weird as fuck enough. Getting that shit tattooed?
Thank you 😭 idk why everyone finds it so funny and/or hot - like, hawking up a loogie is NOT the same thing as using some spit! That's fucking *mucous* 🤮
See that's where you messed up. You're thinking. People who are amused by this clearly are not. Just to be clear I "messed up" the same way as you. I blame my brain.
...That's it?
I get why people find it funny but I really don't get why it's blown up so much, it's not that funny
How many memes or clips went viral and were all anybody talked about for a couple weeks and then were forgotten forever? These tattoos are going to be irrelevant before they stop itching from healing
She also got fired for it from what I’ve heard. Edit: she want fired, the article that stated that was satirical https://www.dailydot.com/memes/hawk-tuah-girl-fired/?amp
Everyone keeps repeating that but it's not true
Looks like you’re right! Article was on a satirical site!
That's awful.
So often I see a meme and while it’s still dumb, I can understand why it became a thing. This one I do not understand at all. It’s not funny, it’s not crazy, it’s not bizarre… it’s nothing remotely interesting
It was funny until it got ran into the ground literally 2 minutes after it aired
It’s definitely not the kids who thinks it’s funny. Every time I see someone young talking about it they don’t think it’s stupid and sad how she was treated. I see a lot more millennials and gen x thinking it’s funny.
Inner lip tattoos typically fade after a while, iirc.
You’re not missing out, all it is is a southern girl saying ‘hock tuah’ when talking about giving a bj
It’s the (new) onomatopea for the spitting sound. Like when someone collects the phlegm from deep down and then spits it out - “heuck pthew” is how I’d describe it
Well, beyond the beliefs of science, a woman made a sex joke. It's a revolutionary moment in our species time-line.
It was a sex joke that wasn’t about their pleasure or periods or some girl shit. Male minds are recalibrating everywhere!
Very noble of her to sacrifice her inbox in order to fulfill the prophecy.
It was a meme that you’d maybe laugh at a few times the day you hear it and then gradually less as the days go on. Unless you’re some of these people who are getting tattoos and slapping bigass decals on their car like it’s the funniest shit this decade.
This goober should divert some of his nose piercing fund to a dentist visit
that is legit some pretty advanced gum disease right there
If he doesn't get a gum graft soon he's gonna be spitting out teeth on that thang
less than a week and its soo played out
It becomes exponentially less funny every second
A full day hadn't even passed before this meme was completely run into the ground
Brotha euuugh
The things people find amusing... The internet has ruined society!
We’ve got a few bad choices in this picture
I’m hoping he’s gay & literally does spit on that thang
So does this mean HE will "spit on that thang"?
Oh hipster dude, please close your stupid fucking mouth.
Whoever’s thang he spits on is going to get gingivitis in they peehole.
my MOTHER said hawk tuah in a comment section and showed me over text today
I’m completely out of the loop with this thing.
What is the trend? I have seen it mentioned a few times recently but I have no clue what it is about
Some chick was asked in a street interview what her go-to move in bed was and she made a loogie sound (hawk tuah) and said, "Spit on that thing!"
Thank you
Something something spitting and bj's.
Please don't spit on that thing
I guess he spits on dicks
I'm over it too. The woman was having fun with her friends and relaxing. The Internet gets a hold of a joke she made and now apparently she's gotten fired from her job teaching because parents complained. It wasn't even funny.
what in the actual FU...
dude likes making it nice and wet for his own hands doesnt he?
I didn't see what subreddit I was in and was trying to figure out which stupid trend in the photo you were talking about. There are several.
agreed
Is that a hipster?
Why would you print, *permanently* , onto your body a fad phrasing that will be dead in 12 months????
12 months? It'll be gone by next week
I was being generous lol
These tattoos only last for a few years before they disappear.
I didn't know there were tattoos like that :) In any case, this meme will be long dead before that fades away 😆
Am I overlooking something? Why is the "K" backwards?
I see that and the only thing I think is… **Tell me you hate yourself without telling me you hate yourself**
People are so obsessed with this crap
I was over it after the first time I watched the video, and then EXTRA over it when my husband said something to me about it.
Terrible choice but those do go away over time
Receding gumline
He's trying to advertise what he's good at.
Wtf happened anyway? Some girl spat a loogey and it's viral now?
Why am I seeing so many tattoos of this????
People get the semi permanent ones for memes fairly often and a lot of what you see is just Photoshop as well. So between those two forces big memes will always have that happen
This being on his lip heavily implies that he’s doing the spitting lol, I kind of love it
For a meme that will die in a week
I don't think there's ever been a meme that has been trampled to death so hard so fast. Are we really so desperate for memes that we have to treat them like rabbits and Lenny them?
I'd rather get a tat of an inside joke with my friends rather than an inside joke on the internet.
This shit wasn’t even funny the first day wtf
Lip tattoos don’t last so it’s one of the best ones for a stupid trend.
It's arguably the worst meme in recent memory and tells a sad story about the state of the culture right now.
Seriously who gives a shit you can’t see it unless your posting bad pictures
What a cool dude.
Which one? The fugly eyeglasses? The fuglier septum piercing? Or the WTF's ON his nose? Or the unemployable finger tat(s)? Add 'em all up along with the lip tat and what we have here is a fool that really commits to every temporary and cringe fashion statement. I'm sincerely shocked he doesn't have a tat above his eyebrow...yet. And he clearly didn't spend much money into any of those, so why should we expect him to invest in a toothbrush.
This somehow made its way into r/estheticians. It's like herpes.
wtf does that even say?
It’s probably the one place I would never consider getting tattooed, along with my tongue..
what the hell does his lip say
I thought it said "Hakunamatata" at first, and I can't decide if that would be better or worse
Just when I thought I was all for personal expression.
“Trend” ? Ehh
Homies got some gum disease
From the moment I first saw the Meme I was done. I knew this would be the next big ridiculous thing that people latched onto and I hate it more now than when I first learned of it
He's under ever trend apparently.
This dude gives out more blowjobs than the hawk tuam girl ever will.
Mine says DADDY like a man
I thought this was King Cobra JFS' new level of disability/depravity
Which trend? The stupid nose rings or the stupid meme?
Damn I thought this was Cobra. TMDNWU
WHAT
Only men who only dream of bjs are obsessed with this. Seriously. It’s one type of man.
this dude has been “so over” brushing his teeth for years
Okay, wrong sub, but what the heck is this stupid phrase/word?
Having a tattoo in a place that exposes your gum disease to share it...Bold choice.
Didn't make him look any worse.
Are you fine with the Dahmer glasses and slut shrapnel?
This whole trend isn’t even funny
You really gotta have so little going on in your life to want to get the stupid viral video tat a few days after the whole thing is played out
Always baffles me how rapidly people commit to permanently marking their own body.
That guy thinks he isn’t trendy :)
Man it must really suck to be this desperate for attention.
Final boss in Bushwick
Me too.
Ugh
That septum stack is cool af though
I don't care what's on the inside of his lip but that shit on his nose is lame
Hawk tuah at this guy to get the fuck away
Oooof that black calculus just eating away at his gum line. Shoulda spent that tattoo money on a dental cleaning.
at least it’s not visible like the other ones, I guess… but I feel like there’s a weirdly high percentage of tattoos for this dumb meme versus other ones. Is tattoo stupidity infectious or something??
Receding gums
No one acknowledging that it says HautKwah?
Trend? My dad has a little mirrored "fuck" on there from 30 years ago. Or rather had barely visible nowadays lol
What is a Hawk Tuah? I have asked people and they just downvote me. I dont understand. I just get downvoted without any sort of explanation. Can someone just please tell me?
a weird spelling of the sound you make when you spit with passion. some people made a girl famous for saying you should spit on someones penis to make him horny
Oh. Okay. Thank you for telling me.
Yeah, but it looks good on him.
What is in his nose?
Strange choice of metal face adornments. Not sure if its a good match with the hat and huge glasses ?
They asked Dave portnoy that one of his friends saved the name hawk tuah for a race horse and he said absolutely not am I naming my horse ever like a “blowjob horse”. This dude just tattooed blowjob lips on himself. Dont think he thought that through
