Most of us have made our fair share of mistakes in life, but these unfortunate folks have to live with theirs forever. At least with a horrible tattoo, you can carry your life lesson with you everywhere. Thinking about leasing a motorcycle? Look at your tattoo, and do not do. Thinking about sliding into your coworker’s DMs? Check your ink, and have a think. I’d give a third example but I think you get the point.
Here’s a good rule to follow: Before you get any tattoo, text what you’re getting to at least 5 friends. Chances are at least one of them will be a sane enough person to talk you out of it. I don’t want to see any of you on the next bad tattoo list.
