50 Times People Didn’t Even Realize How Bad Their Tattoos Were, As Shared On This Facebook Group
We all experience regret at some point in our life. Experts categorize it into two types: inaction — things we didn't do, like asking our crush on a date — or action — things we wish we wouldn't have done, such as drunk driving. This time, let's talk about the latter.
The Facebook group with the glorious name 'What in the $20 wish tattoo machine is this?' collects the absolute worst designs people carry on their skin, and they serve as the perfect proof that not every (drunk) idea is worth executing.
Since this online community is celebrating its birthday (it was created on November 9, 2020), we thought why not commemorate it, and introduce you, dear readers, to its content? Continue scrolling and check out some of the group's most popular posts.

I get the sparkly vampire fetish, but why is the fish sparkly? And why a FISH?
Shyla Bouche 3 years ago
The rainbow fish is prettier than the other fish because of the glittery scales. The fish acts like a Karen to the other fish, until everyone else hates her. She spends her days miserable and alone. One fish starts being nice to her, and she gives it one of the glittery scales. Soon she gives a glittery scale to all the fish, and everybody is friends again.

We managed to get in touch with the group's administrator and moderator team, and a few of them were kind enough to tell us more about 'What in the $20 wish tattoo machine is this?'
"We do have certain criteria tattoos have to meet in order to go through the group," El Arp told Bored Panda. "There's a lot of boundaries the admins and mods have set in order to make sure our site isn't flooded with random stuff, like offensive tats, anything overly gory, etc."

I don't like Twilight but I admire her fandom. I would like to add that the placement of the main part of the tattoo is smart; usually not visible with a normal shirt. But those letters on the neck are going to be harder to cover up, unless you have a turtleneck, I guess.

To be fair I've had my kid draw and pick tattoos for me (she's 6, was 5 at the time) I really don't care if my tattoos "look bad" to other people. They're a reflection of my life and my life is about a 6 and nearly 2 year old. It makes them happy and as a parent your life should be about the kids you decided to have. One of my tattoos is for a trick or treating ghost for a friend my 6 year old lost. Sure it looks really out of place on a 28 year old who's tattood all over. But don't judge if you don't know the story.

El Arp said that, "a lot of our problems lie in the kind of content our members send in. We get about 30+ posts submitted a day, and only about 10-15 of them are usually accepted."
"A lot of people will submit the same thing, their captions won’t be to the standard of the rules (especially the cursing rule) or they just aren’t bad tattoos (normally those are just what people don’t have a preference for or they think are strange)," El Arp explained, highlighting that the admins and mods want the group to be about terribly executed ink.

It's not uncommon to have regret immediately after getting a tattoo, especially since you're used to seeing your body a certain way and then, all of a sudden, it appears different.
To help you come to terms with any immediate anxiety or regret you may experience, experts at Healthline suggest you permit yourself to wait it out.
It may take a while for you to grow into or get used to the ink but remind yourself that if the anxiety or regret doesn't pass, you still have options to either cover it up or start a removal process.
While the exact time frame can vary, Dr. Richard Torbeck, a board-certified dermatologist with Advanced Dermatology, P.C., recommends taking at least six to eight weeks after getting the tattoo before going for removal.
He said this allows for delayed tattoo reactions that can occur with some pigments to be resolved.
Additionally, it gives you the opportunity to think through the process and decide if this is really what you want.

This is what they were going for. She's a demon/vampire creature that refuses to kill and eat people, so that's a gag she wears most of the time. It's from an anime called Kimetsu no Yaiba. Of course, it looks like they "dong-ified" the gag. 🙄 9220817453...fb8360.jpg

I’ve read others’ comments on tats before that tats with thin/fine lines like this… over the years the ink spreads out, the tattoo loses definition, and gets blurry and turns into a blob.
Sonia Ward 3 years ago
I have been told it depends how deep the ink goes into the skin and, that in itself depends on how good the tattooist is. Also, always protect wirh sunscreen.

Ka Se 3 years ago
Because a good part of the fans think that the main character was right in his actions to kill people by means of the death note. In fact, the main character is obsessed with making the world a "better" place and justifies his horrible deeds, just like pretty nasty people usually do. A tattoo from this series can lead to being associated with those fans who approve of vigilante justice. Having it on your hand means that you can't hide it very well.

Really not very well drawn at all, the eye on the left looks like it’s upside down, and not properly aligned with the other eye, the snakes aren’t really very well drawn. Again, a nice concept spoilt by poor execution.

A tattoo is a luxury. Not a need. If you can't afford to go to a good, licensed tattoo artist that can do a good job on you, better if you don't get a tattoo at all. You can always wait and try to save a pair of bucks more to have a nice permanent draw on you. Also for safety reason it is always better going to a professional. Professional tattoo artists have to attend courses regarding safety procedures to get their license, so they don't risk to spread disease (including hepatitis and HIV) or infection misusing their needles (the professionals use always single use needles, a backyard one, I don't know)

Yeah, always wanted a tattoo, so now I am thinking about it seriously, got a good shop with good review, picked an artist with lots of experience and a solid portfolio with the style I want. Before I go, I will commission an artist for the draft with possibilities of retake (since it will not be on my skin yet). I cannot understand someone that will just half a*s it when it's one of the most permanent thing you can get done!
