12 Of The Worst Tattoos Ever Seen

Bad tattoos can be really funny. To the people who are stuck with them forever, not so much, but to the rest of us who didn't get a questionable concept tattooed on ourselves behind an alley while drunk, they're hilarious. "Think before you ink" is a phrase that's thrown around a lot in the tattoo world, inspired by things like this, where a bad tattoo is just so awkward that it makes all of us laugh every time we see it.

If you need a reminder to double-check the reviews on the tattoo artist you have in mind, this is it. Some of these were the artist's fault, and others were just plain horrible all around. But either way, we can't imagine spending the rest of our lives with these tattoos, or spending thousands on laser removal to try and fix something so painfully stupid looking. Be thankful you're not one of these people proudly wearing these 15 horrible tattoo mistakes.
