On Tuesday, Reddit user u/carlden3asked tattoo artists, "What is the most fucked up thing you've tattooed?" I never knew that tattoo artists had to consistently deal with such messed up requests, BUT THEY DO.
Here are some of the worst:
1."Had a woman come into the shop one time way back who looked like she’d been in a tanning booth eight days a week for the last 40+ years. She wanted to get her locked-up man’s name tattooed on her, but she wanted it 'down there.' She convinced me to get way closer to her jukebox than I was comfortable with, and had me tattoo 'Billy Jack’s Pussy.'"
3."In prison, I knew a guy with half his name scribbled backwards on his forehead. The only explanation I could come up with was he was tattooing himself in the mirror and half way through realized it was coming out backwards to everyone so called it quits."
4."A dude who was a regular customer at an old job got a scorpion on one forearm and a tarantula on the other. Only their heads were replaced by Beavis and Butthead."
5."When I was getting one of my tattoos, the artist showed me this horrific piece he was begrudgingly working on for a client. It was a big arm tribal piece, and mixed in the tribal were little guys lifting weights. It was for a gym bro."
7."One of my drunk friends poorly tattooed the words 'Your Name' onto the ass cheek of another drunk friend, all so he could use the 'I've got your name tattooed on my ass' line."
9."My tattoo artist told me he made a snake out of a guy's dick, scales covering the whole thing. Different strokes for different folks. Pretty gnarly."
10."A zombie wearing a purple basketball jersey hacking a guys arm off, and vomiting. The guy is also vomiting up at the zombie and the streams of the two are meeting in the middle."
11."I've done a cartoon fish being choked by another fish's poo. The choking fish is trying to unravel the poo. At the top of this sleeve there’s a fist holding an aquarium net."
