Seriously? Possibly the most celebrated Disneyland ride of all time is all about pirates.

Personally, I don’t like tattoos. On me. Not my thing.
But on others? Honestly, why the hell does my opinion even matter? It’s not my body.
Several years ago, the team I worked with had, with the exception of me and one extremely religious young woman, tattoos. Some were larger, some were smaller, most were hidden, some were not. You know what? They were one hell of a team. Hands down, my favorite staff in 30+ years of working. And I didn’t care about the tattoos. It came up a total of twice. Once, when I was either told or noticed one, and secondly, my second Christmas there.
See, I like to buy Christmas gifts for my staff. Usually on a theme. That year, I gave these stockings that looked like Santa’s pants. It made me laugh. And besides the candy and gift cards, I had temporary tattoos made with the company’s logo. It made everyone laugh. I remember putting one on my forehead.

Unfortunately, not everyone is on the live and let live train of joy… some people have to make it known how morally superior they are by not doing things that others clearly enjoy doing and that’s none of their business…

the horror of change. I’ve seen his picture in another story. He’s a fat man-baby who needs to take his family to some of our state or national parks

I was just thinking… will assholes try to use this policy to fuck with the parks people and protest when they get barred for wearing certain shirts or exposed tattoos. I remember going one time and this guy had to cover up some big tattoo on his arm. Dunno, what it was, but it had basically a black bandage type adhesive on it. Hope not. You’re going to look like a prick if you’re the reason your kids day at the park is ruined because you just had to wear your shirt that “owns the libs”.

Other than explicitly racist imagery like swastikas, etc, there’s just one time in my life when I was a little put off by someone displaying their tattoos. I was in line for a kiddie ride at Legoland and had to wait behind a shirtless guy for over an hour. He was absolutely covered with the most sexually explicit tattoos I’d ever seen in my life, many of which were clearly disrespectful to women, and given the fact that he was surrounded by small children I thought his decision to show that much skin was in poor taste. But the same would have been true if it was a t-shirt with the same imagery.

Sure, that’s certainly a good option. But they’re not going to be employed by Disney. And if they are at Disney, I see nothing wrong with Disney asking them to cover it up…just like they would ask you to remove/cover up your shirt with the same logo.
And some people with crazy tattoos can be fun…I submit my favorite counter point:

Even more hilarious given how cheap his crowd is in general

OMG - I love that guy, and love that bit.
“Do you know how much Mt Dew you have to drink while having a neck tattoo to be known as ‘The Mt Dew Guy’, not, ‘The Neck Tattoo Guy’?”
Also - I relate as I was Mt Dew guy for awhile.

Yeah I picked up on that part, too. I wonder how someone like that thinks about their individuality. What, exactly, is he holding back from?

I keep circling around that sentence. What individuality? Like he wants to put a huge cross on his desk or use the N-word freely?
Business environments were built around the comfort of cis-het white Christian men. Only the most egregious of behaviors are penalized–and that’s a fairly recent development. White men aren’t a monolith, but for undoubtedly average white dude he must be, I’m not sure what sort of individuality he’s looking to sport but finds denied of him.

I’m not much of a practicing Catholic these days but if God personally delivered my meal then I’d happily tip Him a cool 20 percent.
