We’ve all made mistakes… but some are permanent — like tattoos. From misspelled words to bizarre artwork, these hilarious ink disasters will have you doing a double take (or two). Just ask Ariana Grande, who famously ended up with a tattoo that meant “Japanese BBQ grill” instead of what she intended.
Here are some of the funniest tattoo fails people are now stuck with forever:
1. “It seemed like a good idea when I was 18…”
2. “Supposed to be stars… I think?”
3. “A bad tattoo, this is.”
4. “A girl I went to high school with has this on her upper thigh.”
5. “I was told this should live here.”
6. “There is so much to unpack here.”
7. “Don’t take directions from this woman.”
8. You can imagine how fun it must be handling these kinds of requests.
9. “Yes, that is a tattoo.”
10. “What angle do you want the plane from?” “All of them.”
11. “New clippy ink!”
12. “Bertmern.”
13. The impressive shading deserves a shoutout.
14. “Why get a haircut when you can get this?”
15. “One of my friends from high school got this tat, and it hurts me too much to tell him how awful it is.”
16. “Them lines tho!”
17. You can’t argue with that.
18. “Roommate got a tattoo during a party at our apartment. Guess what it is.”
19. “This guy’s argyle sock tattoo.”
