They are symbols from mage the ascension, which are themselves derived from alchemical symbols. https://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Mage:_The_Ascension_symbols for good pictures and https://rpg.stackexchange.com/quest...r-the-spheres-in-mage-the-ascension-come-from for a more detailed explanation.Raleel On a more serious note, what actually are those symbols and what do they mean or represent?

my right arm has Prime (creation/essence) and Mind and my left arm has Entropy (destruction/rot) and Correspondence (distance).
Beyond the fact they are from Mage, creating mind and destroying distance is an allusion for my love of computers and networks, an allusion to societal goals of mine (creating knowledge, removing distance between people), and a reminder to not get these things backwards (creating distance, destroying knowledge)
I expect next I will get spirit on my right arm and time on my left arm, creating mind and spirit and destroying time and space.
"In the future, all breakups will be at Taco Bell"--rejected line from an early draft of Demolition Man.Side note: I broke up with her in a Taco Bell drivethru, and knowing what I know about her now, that was too classy for her apparently.
So, there I am puffing around my hilly and tree-infested front yard with my push electric mower yesterday, when the guy next door decides he should mow, too. His yard is the same size as mine, but flat, with almost no trees. It would be simple to mow it with a standard walk-behind machine--I think you could probably do the whole yard in an hour or less. But no, he has a gigantic yard-service style riding mower--the zero turn type that runs $3500-$5000. It was so loud that when he was near my yard I couldn't even hear my mower. Talk about too much tool for the job...

The war against the lawn has begun its annual campaign. It came earlier this year, because of milder and wetter weather. I've been very busy at work for the last two months, including working weekends, so I was first able to do some mowing yesterday. The grass could have used it at least two weeks ago and the neighbors have been looking askance.

To a man with a little willy, everything looks like an extension!
Cut him some slack, mate.

Edit: Rich H LOL Soo much better than what I came up.
You should see the trucks at the gym I go to, and it's always the biggest guys. (Which are often the ones with theYeah, I guess I should be charitable. But the dude is twenty to twenty-five years younger than I am and looks like he goes to the gym, while I look like an old guy who sits and works at a computer, or with a book, about 10 hours a day. So I guess I feel that if I can push a lawnmower around a suburban lot, he could too.
Did you make this yourself, or did your closest friend do it for you--no shame at all: my oldest closest friend nailed it in one, "Dave's greatest fear (outside of the legit ones such as pain) is that he's not interesting"

It's a panel from the Questionable Content webcomic. I just substituted my name for the name of the character that was being referenced in the original strip.
[Prostrate in supplication]I probably made headlines for a local newspaper yesterday. A group of teens accosted me and threatened me with physical violence. So I told them to wait a while while I put my groceries into my apartment. I chased them away with a sword in hand. So of course I ended up spending the night in prison. Yay, me!
Not my greatest moment but there...
