Alright, I’ll be the first to say it – another pair of beautiful boobies ruined. There.
Yeah, I guess, but … wow! I don’t know, this is kind of awesome. I like the way it works with her body, instead of ink just slapped somewhere convenient, like a bumper sticker.
I agree.. Not really sure if this tattoo ruins her breasts. I’m not usually a fan of chest tattoos on the ladies ( I wouldn’t get on there) but this tattoo seems to compliment them very well.
Yup, this is the first boob tattoo that I actually don’t hate.
Yeah, I usually don’t much like that placement but this one’s pretty rad.
I see nothing but sweetness here. Well, okay, for a moment I thought the ‘N’ was an ‘H’.
I agree. I think it may have been better across the shoulders, but this certainly makes a statement. It is well done, and flows well with her shape.
Dang, You’re so right.
Nah. Not a huge fan of this tattoo, but it’s fairly original and doesn’t scream “skank” nearly as loud as your average tramp stamp. Also, I’m pretty sure the “pallid bust” pun was intentional, so this girl is OK in my book.
Ya figure her name is Pallas?
Maybe Lenore?
whatever, dude. i’d totally bang her
As a guy, I’d have to say that chest pieces on girls are super sexy when properly executed. as long as the fit the form of the body, and don’t extend onto the actual breasts. (this one does a little, but she’s got plenty to spare, so it doesn’t ruin them)
What’s sad is that she has 2 beautiful blackbirds now but by the time she turns 70 they’re gonna look like two dead moths hanging there.
And that would be such a huge turnoff, right? Go away.
Apparently not for a pervert like you!
Yes because at 70 it’s tattoos that make people ugly. Not hideous wrinkles and saggy flesh and hair growing out of your everything.
Stick around, junior. “Hideous wrinkles”, check; “saggy flesh”, check; “hair growing out of your everywhere”; not quite: my scalp is proudly above all this vulgar hair business.
Nary a tatt, though.
Consider the alternative: no wrinkles, hideous or otherwise; no flesh, saggy or otherwise; no hair growing out of anything. And definitely no tatts.
So-o-o I think I’ll stick with my wrinkled, saggy, hairy/hairless status quo, thanks.
And here’s the secret: so will you.
i, for one, fully support perverts!
Who cares what they look like when she is 70? No one is going to see that but her, her husband (if she has one) and her doctor.
or wife
whatever floats her boat.
undertaker.
What? When I’m 70 I’m planning on hosting bingo nights at the nudist colony.

Nice.
awesome. and then you all can have a “guess what my ink was” game. winner gets a whole glass of prune juice. LOL i will be the old lady sitting in the back row trying to remember how to spell bingo.
I’ll sit behind you, tap you on the shoulder, and ask loudly, “What did they call again?” because I expect my hearing to be pretty much gone by then.
it’s a deal. but only if you remind me (loudly so i hear you) to change my depends during the break.
This made me pretty happy.
thank you!
Heh. Gramma, why the dead moths?
dude they are RAVENS. don’t you know anything?
> Quoth the raven, “Emocore.”
I lol’d. Hard. The tattoo’s well executed though.
Nevermore is a power metal band though… well, the “Nevermore” i’m thinking of anyway…
That’s what I was thinking. Which makes the tattoo pretty fucking stupid, because that band sucks.
But, you guys have at least heard of Edgar Allan Poe, though, right? Please say yes.
Yes – I have heard of Poe.
Oh, yeah, I knew you are familiar with him, it’s the two responses after your post that have me worried.
I was thinking of getting a tattoo dedicated to The Raven, but instead of this it was going to be a solitary raven perched on a dead tree, with an excerpt from the poem;
Deep into that darkness peering,
Long I stood there, wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.
As long as you aren’t getting this tattoo anywhere near a particular cavity. Otherwise “Deep into that darkness peering” gets a whole new meaning.
You made me laugh. Hard.
And Rauss, I think you should go for it! You have a decent artist, though, right?
My faith in the future of society hung in the balance waiting for the answer to that question.
By Metulz not replying in the positive, the pretty much says it for that segment of his generation (probably the majority of it at that).
Yeah, nailedrightin didn’t respond, either…Arrgh.
I bet the person who thought up this caption was thinking Paramore rather than Nevermore. *sigh*
The person who thought that up was probably thinking Paramore… *sigh*
OR they were referring to the tattoo itself.
it’s pretty emocore.
…
and not related to any band. whatsoever.
Quoth the raven, “Motorboat.”
You are one twisted individual & I love you.
I actually admire a tat that looks like it was designed for the body, and enhances that part. (As opposed to a piece that was just randomly slapped on. When people “collect” that sort of tat they just look like random graffiti on a bathroom wall. This piece actually works for me. Thumbs up!
I like it! Think of it this way she could have had twilight or avatar or eragon tattooed on her bosoms … at least she went with something that’s classic and kinda dark. the leopard print bra is a nice touch as well.
Yeah, cause leopard print is also classy and dark? Wut?
A bit too much for my taste, but thumbs up for showing the Poe-love!
its eccentric and eclectic
I really like this, I am not a fan of tattoos on women in that area but this is nice.
I have huge boobs myself and would never have considered this area for myself because they usually look too solid (don’t know if I am explaining that right) but this one flows beautifully with the body shape.
The tatt enhances the bewbage.
we would have to see your “canvas” before that decision can be made….lol…couldnt help me self….
I meant in the photo. I was agreeing with Muireann’s observation of the tatt fitting well with the bod.
Timestamp is 1:56pm… I take it she got some Afternoon Delight soon after posing? ;P
I’d never want any of my friends to get this, but it’s nice to look at on a stranger
Too bad it will look like shit in the future. And I’m not even talking about when she’s 70… after maybe 10 years this tattoo will be blurry and not-so-fresh-looking, and touch-ups can only do so much. Plus, it’s quite emo and will probably be noticeably dated by then. It will definitely end up ruining her boobs.
Dated? Poe, dated? Never! I like it.
Ya.. I’m confused… How will Poe be dated in 10 years?
The Raven was first published in 1845 and you still know about it and understand where the tattoo came from but suddenly in 10 years it’s going to be dated? Shame on you.
I think they meant the band?
I ten years no one will think of the stupid band, they will think of Poe. Therefore, it can never be dated.
That makes sense.
lol there’s a band called nevermore? And here I thought this amply breasted beauty had some cool dark intellectual side… *sigh* oh well.
Don’t worry buddy
the amply breasted beauty with an appreciation for 19th Century Gothic poetry will turn up eventually.
I’ve been looking for 22 years and still no luck.
Well, that PLUS the fact that there is no evidence that this tattoo has anything whatsoever to do with the band.
Not a safe thing to assume, I should think.
True… it could also be for the book by Alyson Noël “Evermore: The immortals”
which is also what would make it a bad tattoo due to a spelling error
Hell.. I didn’t even know there was a band named Nevermore.
nah,they mean the ink itself fading alittle. like a suntan.
i have a problem with her having to hold up her boobies with her hands, if she lets her hand her go will the ravens go tumbling “out of the nest”???
It doesn’t look like she is pushing up much to me. I think she is just holding the bra on to avoid fully flashing. I’ll let the ladies bust into the discussion if they disagree though.
She is holding her bra up. The straps aren’t on properly because they would obscure the tat.
Seconded.
I like boobies.
^this^
Is it just me or would this make a great picture for a Breast Cancer Awareness poster?
Wow … you may be on to something. The more I think about it, the more brilliant it sounds.
Epic Idea for Epic Boobs with an Epic Tattoo… EPIC WIN.
Now, how to get it to the attention of the “Race for the Cure” people ….
give her a pink bra?
God, that would be a million times better than all the freaking pink crap they use. Who chose pink?! I’d like to tell them, “Nevermore”.
uhm, this is a really solid tat, and should not be included on THIS particular site. If you think this tat is ugly, it’s because you hate tattoo art.
Shame on you. Normally you guys are right, but in the case: not so much.
Does this *really* have to be discussed on every single picture? There are plenty of tattoos on here that are neither ugly nor poorly inked. Nobody has said that this particular tattoo is ugly.
#getoverit
I think as a group we should agree on the date or title of one tattoos that this was explained on and only type that title or date in reply to the “this tattoo doesn’t belong here” comment without any other explanation from here on out.
I never actually read the comments about any tattoo before, and I certainly didn’t read these until now. Usually I just look at the pics and share the amusing ones with my friends. But this one irked me. The name of the site is “UGLIEST TATTOOS: GALLERY OF REGRETS”. I think the tattoo is neither ugly nor regrettable. The fact that others feel the same way and decided to express it on an open forum should tell you something is awry.
Sorry if I inconvenienced you guys by repeating the same opinion that others have shared prior. I wasn’t trying to quagmire your interweb experience.
But seriously, maybe there should be a change in the site name since it includes well-done tattoos that are amusing besides horribly executed pieces of shite. Or maybe a rating system like on FML
“I agree your life is fucked” or “you had it coming”.
Tattoo artists take their work seriously and people who work hard to excel in their craft don’t deserve for their work to be called “ugly” or “regrettable”.
But that is just MY opinion, and what the fuck do I know. Carry on.
since it is associated with failblog, maybe just a “win” or “fail” rating system. The thumbs down are amusing, but just aren’t able to capture the full spectrum of work featured.
Since you did go through the comments this time, you can see that most of the posters did not dog the tattoo and Valerie already explained about the tattoos that get put up. I can’t help you on the site name or the voting scale. Talk to the cheezburger people. Since the front page was redesigned there a ton of folks coming through that never have been here before and this situation is getting explained daily. Relax. If you are worried up about the tattoo artists, the ones that have a good tattoo put up and comment are universally cool about it and receive a warm welcome. The scratchers that did bad ones never show.
I agree your life is fucked. You had it coming.
U mad?
@Anna
go to the website called fuck my life.
I was referring to their rating scale. Which I think is original and tailored to their content.
@Jam-
I am glad that the artists are cool with this, I wouldn’t be. I’m an artist in Integrated Studio Arts and if one of my drawings or glass pieces was featured on a website called “World’s Shittiest Art” I would be sad. And most of the tattoo artists I know would be bummed to be here.
I love this site for putting the scratchers out there for everyone to see, people should know what kind of work they do. I consider this site a public service. Thanks for the NOOB love.
Quoth the Raven, ‘Would motorboat.’
Love it!
First, to all the “How is it going to look in 10 years” or “How is it going to look when she is 70″-people…. Do you have any tattoos or is that just your general comment on all tattoos?
Next, to all the “perfectly good set of boobs ruined”-people. Do you just not like tattoos on women? If so, just say so… I see the “Ruining good curves”, “ruining an ass” or “Ruining boobs” is a way to say that either only ugly women should get tattoos or that they should get tasteful, small tattoos.
Finally…..
Thank you for two back-to-back, good tattoos (this and the Wicked Witch tattoo). It is nice to see some good ink here, just to remind us why we make fun of the bad stuff.
Yeah, this one might age fairly well and still be legible…It doesn’t look like she gets much sun. I know she was going for the symmetry with her body and in the design but the poem only featured ONE raven. Well, a single raven design would fill the sternum and it looks like she was avoiding a design that she couldn’t hide easily with a collared shirt.
Nice target on her chest. Sir Spunks-A-Lot strikes again.
I thought that guy was still in jail.
Makes me wonder if she let someone motorboat (or something else) her and hated it…but I try not to think about that, because I fucking love Poe.
She’s from Balmor, hon.
Give her 20 years and that will be REALLY funny. That is, unless she gets a boob job in order to fight gravity.
The chest tattoo/leopard print combo just screams “classy chick”
A chest tattoo referring to one of the most iconic poems in English literature, a poem that defined an entire genre of American horror and has been dramatically read by everyone from Christopher Walken to James Earl Jones.
I don’t think that can be defined as ‘trashy’.
I genuflect in your general direction.

Quoth the Rauss, forevermore.
I’m not keen on big tattoos on anyone, but this is pretty darn good. Nicely designed and drawn, the slightly Celtic ravens go well with the well-done Celtic font, and it’s even spelled correctly!
quoth the raven ‘emocore’ – simply superb!
jessica you complete me
What tattoo? *drool*
I kind of like the contrast of the literary reference with the traditionally “trashy” leopard-print bra. The tattoo’s a little emo for me, it’s true, but since it’s on a complete stranger, I really can’t take issue.
Quoth the raven: “fbrbfbrbbfrbrbrbb“
Both comments hilarious. I f’in Luv this thread!
I LOVE your tattoo. It is beautiful. I think it makes your chest even more beautiful. The content is wonderful, the placement is wonderful, and the execution is wonderful
When I was 7, I memorized The Raven and recited it to anyone who would listen.
As an aside, my best friend named her daughter Lenore because of this poem.
To summarize…. You GO, girl!
Thank you
I’m the mom with the daughter named Lenore — and I’ve done the Avon Walk twice in honor of a teacher who continues to struggle with breast cancer. I LOVE your tattoo and am inspired by your strength. I wish you many, many years to enjoy your tattoo. Rock on!
Thank you for your kinds words and thank you for bringing a “Lenore” into the world.
Please, PLEASE know that I have never been diagnosed with breast cancer (if that is indeed why you admire my strength.) Though I have had friends and family with varied forms of it, I have been VERY lucky to date and not been afflicted. I’m so sorry if what I said led you to believe that I was.
“Emocore” made me laugh my ass off, it’s why I signed on to comment–Jessica rules. But I do have to say that this is really a pretty cool tattoo; as someone said above, it’s nice that it works with your curves rather than just looking like a flat drawing that’s been applied to a 3D surface.
And thank god it’s the poem, not the obscure band. Awesome choice.
To be honest, ‘emocore’ made me laugh a bit, as well. But it’s hard to admit to chuckling at a joke that was made at your own expense.
Dear EAP-inked lady:
Thank you for taking it all in stride by not jumping straight to butthurt status, assuming that this site is strictly for the ugliest tattoos of them all. I can say with certainty that yours was chosen for it being the week of Hallowe’en and being great ink. The bonus of a nice pair of ta-tas probably didn’t hurt either.
I’m an aging musician, gone from punk rock to southern blues rock and rockabilly, and I love tattoos. I have the attitude that goes along with it, and I LOVE tattoos on women. I don’t have any on my chest yet, but I have plans for something nice, and I know it won’t look brand new when I’m 90 years old. The thing is, when I’m 90, I can look back and say I lived my life by MY rules and I can look at the pretty colours on my body and laugh at the unhappy people who have regrets for racing with the rats.
Wear that leopard print bra, and show that ink with pride, sister. Rock out with your birds out!
Awesome choice of subject matter, and this does look really good on you.
Great response, thank you. The only thing you left out is the name of your artist. We’d like to know.
I’m a ditsy broad some days. Here’s the info:
Artist: Charon Henning
site: http://www.oddangel.com/?page_id=4
Holy crow! What a woman!
I know! She just amazes me every time I think about it. I am SO privileged to know her; let alone have her work inked on me.
The ink is nice. I’m much more impressed with the frame in this case. They do work well together though.
nice rack ,n the tattoo is not tht bad ,, aswell
I think this tat is awesome…I actually have a Nevermore tat myself…I’m a huge Poe fan. Hers is far more badass than mine, though!
I LOVE this tattoo! It works so well with your body shape, and really compliments it. It’s gorgeous!
Quoth the raven, “motorboat!!!”
Late to the party, rickybobby, so late to the party……….
EAP-inked,
Very nice tattoo. I’m not a huge fan of tattoos, but yours is obviously well-done by a talented artist and it’s really kind of understated despite the size.
Please allow me to join in with the others congratulating you on your superior taste in tattoo subjects!
What exactly is the significance of the word “nevermore” here? Without context, it’s meaningless.
f’ing awesome!
Love the artwork. She does amazing work. She did a piece for my husband last May that is fabulous. I can’t wait for her to came back through town so she can ink me!
why is this an ugly tattoo? dumbasses
ahhh i love this tat. it has beautiful poetic meaning… and its on beewbs :3
Those poor birdies are really trying to hold up those hanging babies!
Edgar Allen Poe. =3
I feel we need to add another verse to Eddie’s deathless poem:
And as age weighs down these melons and they sag down to the floor
And everyone assumes I’m just another biker whore
I shall enjoy this feeble artwork …
Nevermore.
Edgar is my great-great-grand uncle. I am not emo. Nor am I goth. Yet, I approve his words being plastered across blobby boobies evermore… (Dorian Gray, your verse is a lovely thing and brought me great joy!)
Much as I hate to admit it…that’s actually pretty hot.

the tattooer that did this obviously put a stencil on her chest that was made for more of a flat surface, hence the huge dip in her cleavage, distorting the letters.
