Tattoo Artists of Reddit. What is your most, are you sure, tattoo you've been asked to do slash have done?

I actually refused to do this one. An 18-year-old girl came in wanting her boyfriend's name on her lower back.

She had never met him. She was his prison pen pal for a month, and he was being released in a couple weeks, and she wanted to get it to surprise him.

No judgments on ex-cons or 18-year-old girls, but I got the impression the relationship wasn't going to

last.

That's not the good kind of surprise.

Imagine if you're chatting with a girl on OKCupid, and it's going okay, so you meet up for

your first date, and she says she has a surprise for you.

So you're thinking, awesome. Did she buy me a gift? Or maybe she wants to show me a cool place

when we're walking through the city. Or maybe she just wants to give me a surprise hug. Because

everyone likes surprise hugs from cute girls. Nope. Turns out she's tattooed your name on her body.

I'm the type of person who thinks quote unquote red flags are typically overreactions because everyone deserves a fair chance.

But this right here, this is a real freaking red flag.

That's on fire.

And someone is waving it frantically while holding a megaphone in their other hand into which

they are screaming, run! Run! Run if you want to live! Get the heck out now! An artist at the local

tattoo parlor I go to tattooed a guy's ball sack, all orange with a scary face on it. The guy

referred to it as a sack a lantern. Now fellas, we need to talk.

You're not going to be able to use this for 11 months out of the year. And for the one month you

get to use this on, it's for one day only. I just got done watching a YouTube video on the

worst Christmas gifts of 2022, and some of those

gifts were Christmas-themed Christmas gifts.
