We’ve all heard the saying, “Don’t get a tattoo of something you wouldn’t want to look at the rest of your life.” Tattoos are, after all, permanent, so it’s worth putting considerable thought into what you get.
Well, actually maybe not “all” of us have heard that saying, because there are lots and lots and LOTS of bad tattoos out there. Today we’ve got 15 of the most questionable tats. With some of them, the tattoo artist clearly screwed up. With others, the design itself is so out there, you can’t help but admire the person’s individuality.
You know what? If you’re agonizing over whether to get a dolphin on your ankle, or your Mom’s signature on your shoulder, just go for it. And then, if you get tattoo remorse, come back and look at this article again. You’ll feel better, I promise.
