Here in Portland, no one gets too wigged out about tattoos, though even in customer-facing jobs, there's a decent and fair expectation that your face not look like a graffiti'd bus stop.
As a side note, Ron White made "You can't fix stupid" famous, but he appropriated it from Deep South culture. I first hear the phrase from a South Carolina good-ole-boy in the early 90's. White's album came out in 2006. I tell you this only so you know there's no need to apologize to or credit him for something that's not his creation.
I was living in Houston when "You can't fix stupid" became popular...and, yeah, you're spot on. There's nothing new about it, but he did a helluva job monetizing it, didn't he? I doubt there's any one person to be credited for this YCFS, but it would be fun to trace it back...though not enough so for me to do it. 🤗
Catfish: anything to give some flavor to Bud Light.
Tattoos: as long as you job can guarantee that no one, especially a customer, will ever see you, then OK, maybe.

Thanks for the share! Let's hope that reason prevails!
I’m hanging on to hope and reason like my life depends on it. 😝😊
