At one point or another, most people have considered getting a tattoo, and there are plenty of people out there who actually have them, lots of them! Tattoos can be a great way to show off your creativity and individuality. They can be used to commemorate someone, or something, or a pet, time, or place. They can be beautiful and colorful or they can be none of these things.

Ones that are made of bad taste, and ones that are just poorly executed. Here are 23 humorous tattoo fails to maybe make you feel better about your decisions today.
