Getting a tattoo is a big decision to make, so obviously you want to know what you are doing. Choosing the right design, the right location on the body and a reputable artist that you can trust are all essential. This person was very thorough, even researching the background of the artist, and I think it’s fair to say that they didn’t like what they found.

So they decided to cancel the appointment, doing so in a snooty and judgmental way and even going as far as to demand an ‘inconvenience fee.’ The tattoo shop duly delivered the epic response that the uppity client deserved, and sparked a debate about rehabilitation and the prison system in the process. Scroll down below to see how it all unfolded, and let us know what you think in the comments!
