Oh fuck me…I read over it briefly and totally got his point but didn’t realize he used euthanasia instead of anesthesia and was confused why there was no explanation in the comments or why this is even funny.
So, pardon me if this sounds stupid, but his general idea with the anesthesia doesn’t sound that stupid right, right? Oh god this is a stupid question isn’t it…
Ignoring safety concerns with administering and looking after the patient. the cost increase of getting a tattoo would be astronomical.
of couse it has to be done by someone who is qualified for this and if someone is willing to pay for it why not, people pay a lot mopney for dumb stuff since forever. I mean sure if there is no need for it then there is no market for it but I’m really curious if someone actually tried it before in his tatoo shop.
Anesthesiologist salaries range from $300k+ to 500k+ according to a quick Google search. Doing the same for tattoo artists say the very very top earners can be in the $300k+ range.
I went into this comment prepared to say that you’re underestimating how much more expensive it would be, but looking at that I guess there’s no real reason you shouldn’t be able to shell out 2-10x the money (I have no idea how much the equipment and consumables cost) to get a really really nice tattoo without feeling the pain.
Because anesthesia has a non-trivial chance of immediately killing you every time it’s used. It’s why major surgeries are always a last resort, and why minor surgeries use topical anesthesics instead of systemic (completely different drugs). It would be medical malpractice to use anesthesia for something that does not absolutely require it. No anesthesiologist would risk their liscense for it.
They clearly been local anaesthesia. Some other comments have made good arguments for why it’s potentially a good idea but also why it doesn’t happen generally.
so why did I get anestasised during colonoscopy? sounds like a bad idea
no clue what they used, I was asleep in seconds, it was an infusion and I awoke pretty quickly. I would have been able to walk home within 15-30 minutes
Anesthesia has a lot of issues as other people mentioned but I imagine a topical pain killer wouldn’t be the worst thing ever at a tattoo shop. That being said, many people that get tattoos low-key enjoy the pain… Or maybe that’s just me.
