Let’s face it, relationships can be unpredictable, and things might not always work out. Getting your girlfriend’s name tattooed on your arm could be a risky move. If you break up, you’re left with a permanent reminder of an ex that might not be easy to explain to future partners.
When things inevitably don’t end well with your girlfriend, you might need to get a cover-up tattoo. Instead of completely getting rid of the name Megan, this guy made it very obvious and simply inserted “Oops, I meant Hollie”. You’d think he would have learned by now not to get your girlfriend’s name tattooed…
Still Acting Like a Monkey
People have no problem walking into a tattoo parlor and blindly picking a design that looks cool. But, for some reason, coming up with your own tattoo design seems like such an intimidating endeavor, and sadly, that kind of intimidation leads to terrible decisions. Like getting this evolutionary drawing on this arm.
Darwin may approve, but that might be all. At first glance, you don't really see the problem in this outline of "Evolution of Man", and then you realize that a silhouette may not have been the best choice for this design. Why? Because the hand of the man on the right looks less like a hand and more like a... let's cal lit a piece of bodily equipment.
What's the Tradition, Exactly?
This article has it all. From tattoos that do not age well, to easy-to-spot typos in quotes, to unfortunate choices people made when they were drunk. While there are many questionable tattoos out there, this “Family Tradition” tattoo placed on this guy's upper lip takes the cake.
Maybe all of his male family members have a big, bushy mustache, and he just can't manage more than a teen scruff. Sometimes it’s okay to uphold your family's tradition and heritage, but if it means tattooing this on your face, then maybe you should consider breaking tradition. Or pick a different family.
Too Many to Count
We all know that friend who always insists on getting a tattoo after a night of heavy drinking. They stumble into the nearest tattoo parlor, pick a random design off the wall, and end up with a tattoo that looks like it was done by a toddler. The worst part of this is, it happens so often!
Throwing caution to the wind and getting a tattoo of something that seems like a good idea at the time might be okay if it was once or twice. But this guy has so many bad tattoos, we're starting to suspect he's surrounded by terrible friends who don't even dare to stop him. At least they are all located in the same place.
Beauty Personified
Ah, yes. Eric Stoltz from Mask. The kind of character everyone wants on their body. Everyone being this guy minus every single other person on earth. Even if you know who this character is (we do) and why he might want it on his person (we don't), this individual will still probably have plenty of explaining to do.
In the movie, Eric Stoltz plays a character called Rocky Dennis. Rocky is an intelligent, outgoing, and funny teenager who suffers from a facial deformity called "lionitis" and has now outlived his life expectancy. It could very well be that this person really is a fan of the movie and felt inspired by the character.
