There's little better in the world than seeing a shit tattoo in the wild. Why does that man have his own name tattooed across his knuckles? Why is there a My Little Pony licking that woman's neck?
But we often forget that when it comes to shit tattoos, it takes two to tango. Not only did someone have a terrible idea, someone else agreed to it, took some money, and set to work.
Which is why we're glad that Reddit is interrogating tattoo artists about their biggest regrets. Sure, a fair amount of them start with the inevitable "I'm not a tattoo artist but...", but there're still some ink-redible tales to cringe through.
