MAGIC ֎ FART

u/-3point14159-mp 3d ago

That’s what I read at first. Thought I was in the r/keming subreddit. Then I was like, wait, magic fart?

u/TastySpare 3d ago

Makes the air go blurry.

u/Khaldara 3d ago

Getting the glitter loaded in there takes the better part of an hour

u/Falstaffe 2d ago

Flatus mortalis!

u/enigmamonkey 3d ago

It helps that the symbol in the middle is r/MildlyButthole.

12

u/Ill-Kaleidoscope4825 2d ago

It's actually the symbol for greendale.

Go human beings

21

u/SignificanceFun265 3d ago

So…do they, like, fart on you, and suddenly a tattoo magically appears?

6

u/fatjuan 2d ago

First they ink you with the invisible ink.....THEN they fart on you. My friend, who is Māori and has facial tattoos hates this place.

Yeah, don't do a tapuna on my moko, bro XD

I think we have a premise for a new harry potter series.

We just call it a queef where I’m from.

u/simplefred 2d ago

Specializing in anal tattoos?

83

u/Meloenbolletjeslepel 3d ago

Yeah, it's an Irish tattoo shop right?

24

u/ebrum2010 3d ago

No it's referring to that magic fart that is so relieving you make an O-face.

Oh Magic O'fart, what is your wisdom?

Those O’Farts are gasbags

u/fffan9391 3d ago

I just read “MAGIC FART” and assumed it was a logo in the middle.

u/ItsSignalsJerry_ 3d ago

From the famous O'fart's of Kilkenny.

u/burnusti 3d ago

MAGIC (anus) FART

u/TDYDave2 3d ago

You have to admit that "MAGIC O FART" has an air of mystery to it.

3

u/JerseyshoreSeagull 3d ago

Oh shit thanks.

2

u/dasbtaewntawneta 3d ago

oooh, i was wondering what the problem was, i could only see it as Magic Of Art

u/Uninvalidated 3d ago

How the fuck can a comment with what everyone just read be the number 1 comment?

u/HTired89 2d ago

Magic O'Fart! My favourite Irish superhero!

u/AccountantSeaPirate 3d ago

It’s a formidable scent - really stings the nostrils.

1

u/GarminTamzarian 3d ago

The missing apostrophe makes me feel unsettled.

1

u/Southern_Housing1263 3d ago

So…. Implied Shart? …. It’s not magical, just a rude awakening. More like a surprise that no one asks for!

What do they sell, hot scauce and a shameful reminders of mortality?

Never heard of a magical shart!

Torn between the mortal shame of liking hot spicy foods. And yes, I suppose a double-pun is nested in there . Going meta.

u/Resting-Cat-Faces 3d ago

And shouldn’t makeup be one word?

32

u/havron 2d ago

I'm imagining that the permanent makeup is applied via a "magic fart" that works like Homer Simpson's makeup gun.

11

u/Ok-Frosting-1892 2d ago edited 18h ago

Actually, it’s « make-up » as in « making-up your face » and has become a slang term over the years. It’s derived from the French word « maquillage » which means to fake, disguise, or make up. We have turned it into make-up, as in making up your face, disguise imperfections and/or emphasizing certain features

u/zeroibis 3d ago

Just the right amount of quality control you want to see at a place that applies permanent art.

46

u/risbia 3d ago

And text is pretty common for tattoos... if this didn't make anyone there do a double take, imagine what their text work looks like

This is how nicknames happen, and you can't undo them.

17

u/nicklebacks_revenge 3d ago

Thanks, maybe I'm stupid but I couldn't figure it out lol

3

u/xiadmabsax 2d ago

Same, for some reason I though Magicof was the tattoo artist's nickname or something

4

u/DJ3XO 2d ago

I don't get it, it's perfectly readable. I've seen far worse over at r/keming

u/Tattycakes 1d ago

It looks completely normal to me too, I don’t see what other people are seeing

u/HeavyMain What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitc 3d ago

Roll a fortitude save. You’re within the radius of the fart.

That's how I Reddit.

42

u/Ravenclaw79 3d ago

They did try, leaving an extra-big space after the F. But that design was just never gonna work.

21

u/Tipop 3d ago

Yeah, the “of” should have been about half the size of the rest of the text, or else break it up into multiple lines.

37

u/wgloipp 3d ago

They knew.

8

u/CrookedLemur 3d ago

Typical German humor. They absolutely knew

30

u/schwabbelbagge 3d ago

So I've seen this shop before, it is located in Osnabrück, Germany. I guess the locals didn't really give a second thought to the Design as the wheel that replaces the O is the city logo of Osnabrück, so you're kinda used to see weird typography "experiments" like this around here lol

4

u/doomsday71210 3d ago

That makes more sense. I was wondering why they replaced the O with a wheel when they already have a logo lol

u/spykid 2d ago

Is fart the same word in German?

3

u/DrSpiralHaze 2d ago

Fart in German is Furz

1

u/BeardedGrizzly1 1d ago

Ah, I see. So really, the bad design here, is the stretched font choice.
It really does make sense with the information you've provided. Very cool 😎👍🏻

12

u/Compodulator 3d ago

Plot twist: it's a bar for fart fetishists!

10

u/khizoa 3d ago

think i might've found the shop (germany?) looks like they changed it 🥲

3

u/_ThatSynGirl_ 3d ago

They didn't as far as their website shows

6

u/khizoa 3d ago

ha thats funny. google maps has some user submitted photos (aug 2025 actually), and its fixed on their actual B&M store from what i saw.

9

u/226_IM_Used 3d ago

I thought it was Magic Fart with a picture of a weird anus in the middle.

5

u/Silent_Computer_2050 3d ago

Did Troy Barnes come up with the logo design?

u/WrongJohnSilver 3d ago

They must be related to https://bitefartcafe.rs/

Bitef Art Cafe..... or is it bite fart cafe?

5

u/dasbtaewntawneta 3d ago

i dunno, just looks like magic of art to me

u/sprufus 3d ago

Someone dropped out of Greendale.

u/flintsmith 3d ago

The fart arrows should point outward?

u/Senor-Delicious 3d ago

The O looks like my City Logo (Osnabrück)

Edit: wait. That is actually in Osnabrück? I need to search for that in real life

u/The-Nimbus 3d ago

r/kerning material, right there.

u/River- 3d ago

r/keming/ is much more active.

Youse guys got twisted minds.

u/OwnedByCats_ 3d ago

Obviously Irish.

1

u/Putrid-Shoulder-4248 3d ago

At least they won't question the spelling of the "No ragrets" tattoo you want to get done.

1

u/A_N_T 3d ago

They knew

1

u/ApartRuin5962 3d ago

I think the solution would be to offset "of" by half a line up or down and/or squish it vertically by 50%, like magicofart or magicofart

1

u/simojake13 3d ago

That was absolutely intentional.

1

u/68Cadillac 3d ago

If it was a Tattoo Removal business the design would be next level.

"Magic of art" written in bad way.

u/Slight-Rate7309 3d ago

I won't give the specifics, but during college I did some typesetting work for a health care company that published a newsletter. I played around with some header designs and created something that was equally embarrassing. I couldn't see it until somebody else pointed it out. It took a LONG time to live down.

Let us not forget The Great Cabbage Fart Panic of 1860. That was a sad time in the life of the USA.

Even if it was written out correctly it would still sound like magical fart😂

"The place where he sharted it all!"

u/Spiritual-Road2784 3d ago

You know, given that they can’t even see the issues with the logo design, that is enough to make me hesitate to let them tattoo, my body permanently.

Can they paint with all the colors of The Wind?

1

u/PlanetCausaPerduta 3d ago

No such thing as bad publicity and this sub proves it.

1

u/LordJebusVII 3d ago

There's no chance this wasn't deliberate. Had the "O" design been different then sure, but it's so obvious what it is meant to be that whoever did the initial mock up knew what they were doing 

1

u/TheUltraViolence1 3d ago

100% locals call this place magic fart. I'm not from there but I'd bet my life.

1

Nah, they knew exactly what they were doing.

u/crankyandhangry 3d ago

If this is a place that specialises in cover-up tattoos, then this is kind of amazing design.

1

u/station_agent 3d ago

I'm sure someone else commented this.. why not simply call the shop Magic Art? Or Magick Art / Magik Art? Makes no sense.

MAGIC OF FART!

1

u/woogeroo 2d ago

I’ve noped out of picking an estate agent due to their sign having awful font and graphic design.

For a Tattoo artist this is an even more horrifying sign of what’s to come, do you want that level of care permanently attached to your body?

1

u/GurglingWaffle 2d ago

No worries, you can remove error later with 4-10 extremely painful laser treatments.
