A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

MODERATORS
Tattoos also apparently taste bad, so they are also good at risk management, as they're avoiding cannibals
Eh, I'd argue it's actually the exact opposite of good risk management. They've spent a lot of time and money mitigating something that's extremely unlikely to ever pose a problem. They should take a step back and reevaluate that risk matrix, maybe get a second opinion on it too.
Mah man, that's just what the cannibals want you to think! /j
Christians are cannibals (they have a ritual), that's why they don't like tattoos.
Is that why sailors got tattows? xD
Avoiding becoming long pork is as valid reason as any I suppose hah
serious answer
I think a lot of it was for identification of bodies if they are otherwise disfigured in death :3.. as well as other things like superstition, or marking important achievements ^^
Also they liked to share stuff with the local people, I think getting a tattow was also a big part of that.
I assumed at first it was a typo, but you've done it twice now. What's a tattow?
