The mark

Well I've learned one thing from this thread: Either Lemmy is mostly white people or almost everyone else isn't silly enough to to take a photo of their arm.

New photo challenge. If you were born after 1990 but are older than 18 {legal rider} and have two x chromosomes, you likely have two large features on your chest.

I was born after the 90s and I have that

Y'all it's sun exposure from driving. You're just old enough to see the damage.

I've got 2, the freckle has broken containment and is multiplying

Yikes!

that's freaky

90's, South-East Asian

Nope! But you did make me look.

Can confirm.

Me, a mixed race person of color who doesn't sunburn or freckle, reading how all the white folk in the comments have the same mark.

"Hmmm...I'll be damned."

At least in the USA, it's probably due to having been alive long enough for sun damage to cause a freckle on the side of your body nearest the car window while driving.

Not sure if this counts

Dude...

Which one are we talking about here?

I have it. This is sorcery.

ITT: .world’s image hosting costs are doubled

Dont you guys remember? We were all there. That's where they put the bees in.

Why ?

What the fuck why is this correct

Barnum Statement.

I've gotten suuuper into introspective / therapeutic tarot reading and in my related research I've come across a bunch of techniques used by people who use them performatively as a divinatory illusion. The funniest part is if I was going to do it therapeutically for another person I would probably do all the same things I'd just be honest that that was what I was doing. Kinda like a ritualistic / spiritually themed rorschach test.

Why do you gather us like this bröther?

Wtf

What the fuck

Probability of a freckle on any limb is going to increase with age. I'm 4/4, maybe 8/8 if you count both sides of each limb. So yeah, pretty good chance that others born before 1990 are going to have a freckle there.

I have it too. That's actually insane. I'm born in Sweden.

Maybe it's the sign of everyone who agreed to be here on this planet and watch spectacular stupidy together.

I have never seen so many forearm pictures in a single place before.

Also I have it too reee.

How to get a bunch of random people to take a picture of their arm and post it online.

Choice A: ask everyone to post take a picture of their arm and post it

Choice B: Make it completely absurd statement as if it were absolute truth thereby challenging everyone to prove you wrong

I have like 12 freckles on that arm, does that mean I was born in 1880?

Wrong arm, but do we count it?

Mine is on my right arm do I need to go see a doctor?

I'm a pretty heavily freckled person, but damn if I don't have a pronounced, solitary freckle precisely at this location on my left arm.

I bet it's related to driving with my left arm hanging out the window. In the US at least, people who do that have their left arm over-exposed to sun damage.

Whæt the fuck? How common is that?

God damn it

I don't have it! What's wrong with me??

Yep, it's there alright

Mine has a double triangle, I am the triforce

Rut roh... I've got three of them.

Hey quick question what the fuck

Wtf

Welcome to survivor bias land.
(I don't have it.)

'85 and I don't have this freckle.

Bro wtf

I dont have it, Im black, I got one on my bicep tho!!!

Can I join the club now??

Born in 90's freckle confirmed

HOW IN THE FUCK

I've reported you to the police.

Motherfucker...

Me too! WTF? Why?

AYO Wtf

90s rep

I'm in the club. Is there a handshake?

This is awakening a sort of core memory in me. It was some vaccination wasn't it?

It's actually weird how I have the left forearm freckle, but nothing on the right arm. Is it from sticking your arm out while driving or something??

I don't even drive though so

(looks at arms)

Now listen here you little shit!

Wtf

Sorry was born in the 80s so I don’t have this but have a cigarette burn from when my parent thought the window was open and it wasn’t and tried to flick there butt out the window for it to only go back at me. We laughed it off

This is blowing my mind. I have one in the EXACT SAME spot.

Yep. Me too.

Son of a bitch...

But that's not a freckle??? That's a mole

I got a lot more than just the one. I've got so many freckles I have to undress to see my OG skin tone.

YO WTF?

Dude what the fuck??

Wait you’re onto spending

Wtffff??? Are we clones?

I have a freckle there, but it is not that freckle. Fake news.

Yup I have it.

I have exactly that, but in my right arm.

Maybe its because I'm left handed...

I have it but on my right arm.

What the fuckery fucking witchcraft is this

Umm. I guess im really in the era?

How???

i have one but im a freckly boy

Wtf....i have it too

I have it. Is that where we were chipped as babies?

Ayooo

Wtf??

It's actually on my right arm, but I'm a lefty so that makes sense.

My brother in christ

Dammit... WTF?

Holy shit it's true!

wtf

I was born in the 2000s and I have it

Born way later and have it too

I don't have it... And was born in the 2000s. Check's out I guess?

Mine is on the opposite arm on the outside. I think I was borne backward

Checks out. Born in the 80s and I've got that freck. It has to be a vaccination mark, right?

Confirmed!!

Checks out

Why didn't my parents tell me they took us all back to 1977 in a time machine?!

okay but did yours start closer to your wrist as a child and move closer toward the elbow over time?

Nah but a fresh tick bite. This means I'm from the future

Forearmed is forewarned.

Mother fucker

More like, if you were born at any time in history, you have this freckle on your left arm.

Joke's on you, mine isn't a freckle at all. It's a cherry angioma.

I'm Brazilian, a zennial, and I have a similar freckle on the other side of my left arm, as well as another freckle on the same spot, on my right arm tho. Is it related to some vaccine shot from childhood, or other factor? (I remember having some shot mark from one of these shots over the upper arm, dunno which shot, if parotitis or rubella)
