81 Truly Awful Tattoos That Are Funny, Tragic, And Permanent All At Once (New Pics)

Why?

Did they ask for the bird instead of the machine?

It's a crack rat.

Research good cover up artists and get some proper consultation about a good design, this won't be difficult for a good cover up artist to fix with a design that is right for you.

Should've just let it fade.

Frostbite

Well, at least they have some meaning?

Second pic...

All 5 minutes?!

Oh no!

Looks like acne

Because they died of embarrassment.

Jesus... I think

Eyes blacked out. I mean you could not recognize the guy from... maybe... the tats?

Battles change you…

Love the cover-up piece

Yuk

Why does it have "influencer" lips?? 😭

Creepy? Yes. But that is actually really well done.

At least it's nice handwriting.

Oof on the last image, ink is falling out. To each their own on a blackout to cover, makes a good base for new ink, but it looks like they might have gone to a scratcher with the ink falling out that bad.

not the throat king

I didn't know Beast was a Simpson.

When you really love dauphins

Ew. Not one positive thing on here. Someone needs a cover up for that cover up.

So gross

Bet he was eating seeds as a pastime Activity

Add a red x ? 😬

Oh boy... or girl...

It was bad to begin with, no damage done.

"it's just a flesh wound"

Does he also have MAGA on his neck? Loser x2.

I better take a breathe

W*f

peaky blunder

Thats actually kinda awesome.

Had to do some digging to decipher the code, from reddit..... "TV" stands for "Taylor's version", which is how Taylor Swift subtitles the re-recorded releases of her albums she's been creating after the masters ownership dispute several years ago. "All too well" is a song title from the album "red" which is one of the songs/albums she's re-recorded and released. Specifically, "all too well" got a lot of attention when she released the "Taylor's version" because she released a 10-minute version instead of the (idk, 2? 3? Minute) version that was on the original release of the record. It was also famously kind of a diss track about the actor Jake Gyllenhaal, with whom swift had a relationship back in the day. So it got extra attention because of the further light it shed on the details of that relationship.

Teleported back to 2012 Tumblr, this is very 2012 Tumblr.

Just go back and have it touched up, most places offer a free touch up session after the healing process, this looks like it didn't heal properly.

The oft-reconmended but rarely utilized, undisputed cover up king.... The SAP!

The bird is from an animated short about habit-forming substances.

A reputable artist would refuse a hand tat without the presence of full sleeves minimum. I know this vabbage is already a testament to how not reputable OPs artist was, but yes, a reputable artist would have refused to do this at all.

Looks like amoebas and olives.

You're.

And you didn't think this was an indication of things to come when you saw it before getting tattooed?

Poorly executed anti-possession symbol. Yay Supernatural though, great show!

Look like infections.

Wow, that is actually not bad for a scratcher with a jerryrigged machine. Get a good artist to fix and finish it and it should be pretty good.
