Tatting is the act of reproducing/mirroring and capturing on video, Tattoo's famous line from the opening credits of the 1977+ ABC television show Fantasy Island, where Tattoo boldly announces atop of a bell tower, "De dlane, De plane!". In order for a tatting to be correct, "De Plane" must be said twice and the Tatter must be pointing skyward.

There are two forms of Tatting that are reserved for advanced tatters only:

1) If you are actually pointing to a real plane

2) If a bell sound is captured immediately prior to the tatting.
I just posted the best tatting to my Facepage. I was Tatting on a Gay Pride Parade float AND there was a 727 in the sky. I rock!

I've been tating this guy for 3 months, but he still hasn't asked me to be his girlfriend.

Andrew tating 

When someone is Andrew tating someone, they are making judgment of someone that they know little to no information about.
(Groups)- Hey did you see that YouTube video of that guy walking up to random strangers in grocery stores and gives people healthy food instead of junk food? He really annoyed this one lady and should mind his business.
(Me) - whoa now before y’all start Andrew Tating the guy let me let y’all know that lady is a friend of his and he just needed a more exaggerated reaction.
