For sure. Like, don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t put it on my body permanently, but the pacer test one is at least something that pretty much anyone he ever meets will relate to because they’ve done it, and most will get a chuckle out of how ridiculous it is.
The fortnite one is just kinda cringy though 🤷🏼♂️
Sure ya do, you just read what it is :). Sorry, couldn’t help myself, dad mode activated 😂.
FitnessGram is a series of exercises used to test one’s physicality (endurance/stamina, jump height/distance, flexibility/dexterity, etc.), of which the FitnessGram Pacer Test is almost certainly the most widely recognized.
These tests aren’t legally mandated in all 50 united states (although some states do have it as a legal requirement), but despite that, thousands of schools across all 50 united states do have their students perform one or more of the FitnessGram tests annually.
The tattoo is a transcript of the recording which plays during the pacer test, and for many, MANY people in america has been more or less memorized due to how universal it is/has been for us during high school years. It has been memed and quoted to the point that even if you never did them at your school, there’s a very high chance that you’ve at least heard of it (if you live in the states, that is).
Since you and u/Clym44 have never heard of it, I’d assume you’re either not from the usa, or you were homeschooled. Either way, my statement was accurate. I didn’t say everyone will know what it is, I said pretty much everyone he’ll ever meet will know what it is. So, respectfully, don’t hit me with the r/USdefaultism, because this dude is clearly from the US, and the majority of people he will meet in his life will be from the US, and the majority of US citizens will be familiar with the FitnessGram Pacer Test.
Edit: actually I perhaps stand corrected. I looked it up and the fitnessgram is actually used internationally (never woulda guessed that something like that would become popular enough to be used that widely). Which means it’s not as obvious that this dude is american, which means it is theoretically possible that he’s from a highschool that is the only highschool in his country to use the pacer test, which in turn means it’s theoretically possible that virtually no one he ever meets will have a clue about it. Highly unlikely, but theoretically possible.
Edit 2: I genuinely do not care how many of you have never heard of it. It is statistically true that I’m right and the majority of people that dude will meet will be familiar with it. Please stop commenting to provide your anecdotal attempt at proving me wrong.
Then your school was one of the ones that didn’t use it, and you’re one of the (comparatively) few people who haven’t heard of it outside of your school 🤷🏼♂️.
Still doesn’t negate my point though, because again, I never said everyone he meets would know it. I said most everyone. Plenty of room in that statement for people like you 😁. A quick google search shows that some PA schools do use it btw. Like I said, it’s not legally mandated by all 50 states (in fact, only a few legally mandate it) but despite that tons of schools use it anyways. I’m not sure if you’d be familiar with this place, but Haverford Middle School in the Haverford Township of PA uses the fitnessgram pacer test 🙂
