All seriousness about tattoos aside, all respect for another person’s taste on hold, sometimes you just have to call a spade a spade. I don’t know anyone who hasn’t seen a truly crappy, cringe inducing tattoo on someone before, a tattoo that makes you take notice and just ask aloud “What the hell were they thinking?” Sometimes, it’s nice to just sit back and laugh at the truly idiotic tattoos that exist out there.
Sound good? Well, if it does, then you need to take a trip over to Loltatz, a blog that posts photos of utterly crap tattoos and then proceeds to add captions that are pretty much hit or miss in the humor department. It doesn’t matter though, because once you start checking out these tattoos, you won’t even need the captions to make you laugh. A word of warning however: the stuff on there is definitely not safe for work, so unless you have a really cool boss or you are the boss, then I’d wait until you get home to laugh at other people’s bad taste.
The blog can also be quite educational. For example, I had no idea that amongst the realm of horrible tattoos, penises seem to be the single most popular image. Not only penises, but penises in a variety of strange hybrids and situations. The “Cockstrich” in particular, is a rather interesting mix of Renaissance art and Napoleonic military might. Perhaps after looking at some of these tattoos you may find yourself asking who these people are and why it is that they’ve done what they’ve done to themselves.
That’s okay. You won’t be the only one.
