Oh yes, the gallery of forever art nobody asked for. You’ve seen them: tattoos that look like they were drawn by a blindfolded cousin during a power outage. Somebody somewhere thought: “You know what my body needs? A misspelled phrase and a wolf shaped like a baked potato.”
These masterpieces walk through life confidently, as if the universe won a bet. Rats that look questionable. Portraits that look like the witness-protection version of the person. Tigers that have clearly been through something. And don’t get me started on the ones whose meanings were forgotten the minute the ink hit the skin.
Every one of these tattoos screams the same ancient wisdom: “Think before you ink… or at least Google it.” So gather ’round. Let’s admire the not-so-smart souls who turned their bodies into permanent punchlines.
