Some tattoos are great. Girl in martini glass? Sexy! Giant swimming koi? Appreciative of other cultures! A well-executed tree, branches to the sky, roots to the earth? Nice. Very tasteful. Symbolic, yet understated.
But some tattoos are . . . less great. In fact, some are brain-explodingly terrible. The butterfly tramp stamps, NASCAR emblems, and Star Trek commemorative plate–style back pieces that walk this earth are an assault on the eyes and an affront to all who encounter them. Thank god you don’t have one of those. Oh wait, you do?
Can I see?

Wow simple to say wow some made me gag some made me cry some terrified me but all N all hit the funny bone spot thanks
great! this website rocks loads.

oh yea if someone needs a good site to scope out more shitty tats, try BMEink.com some of the stuff is good but its a stranger friendly site and anyone can upload their absurd shitty ass tattoos so u might be able to find some good ones … i mean bad ones.
I will not cut my beard or smoke pot until my book is finished.
People I see every day will keep this site running for years.
You have been bookmarked and you are a genius.
This site makes me happy. So very, very happy.
I now have a new obsession. Thank you. This is the best terribleness ever.
I love this site… people are so dumb.

Awesome website. Combines the humor of failblogs with the permanence of death and taxes. What the fuck were these people thinking?
It would be a great feature if you could link the tattoos to the parlor/artist responsible. Not that I plan on getting a tattoo.
I want to see some old english tattoos that are unreadable. I love those.
I found this site from fail blog. You’re now on my list of sites I must check daily. I love tattoos, but sometimes looking at awesome ones gets boring. Thank you for livening up things for us all.
Thanks a lot guys !!! Waiting for this so long !! I’ll try to take pictures to fill your database !!
thanks again !
Unbelievable site. The pictures and accompanying Maddox-esque descriptions are hysterical.
very funny captions!
Do you get hate mail? Would you please post it? I bet it is as funny as the tattoos.
Hey guys — thanks very much for all your kind responses. We’re looking forward to seeing you here in the future! As commenters. Not subjects.*
*Unless any of you, in a fit of grief, got that Ed McMahon tattoo. Please send that in.
thank you for the lols!
This site hurts me. But I adore it!
Need…more…bad tattoos….!!! This has rapidly become my favorite website to visit every day!
The author of these captions is such an articulate and witty writer! The text that accompanies these hideous photographs is what makes me come back to the site.
@Goat
*rolling eyes*
this is hilarious! whoever writes the captions rocks. keep posting!
first off: GREAT SITE. i can’t even begin to tell you how much i enjoy the galleries, and how many laughs/sad moans were shared with friends over this.
gotta say, though, i’ve heard about the tattoo of the mermen jerking each other off… did you know, there’s not one, but two grown men walking this earth with the exact same tattoo? i met a man who saw a tattoo described like the one you posted in a portfolio, and had the artist do an exact replica. now, i haven’t actually seen these tats in person (thank god!) but… how many of those are there on this earth, really? let’s hope it’s only two. and that’s one of them…
I seriously read all your posts. This got linked to me from facebook, I want more!
All tattoos suck.
votemyink.com / votemyink.org .. or whatever cant remember, go to the ones with worst rating..
Ok, so I have no life, I’m playing on my PC and found PCWorld’s top 100 favorite Web Sites, and there you were. It was instant love, like the love you have for Joe Dirt, and your uncle’s glasses… You’re not only comical, but now I want a tattoo of something that makes no sense, and that can embarass me enough to get on your site! Maybe I’ll go for the Ed McMahon, but I’ll need a lot of Xanax for that one… Pins and Needles to you……..
ex’s and ohhhh’s!
Krispie
Dude you are freaking hilarious. I come to this site for your funny frikkin comments. I would pay to see you have a battle of wits with Tucker Max.
The guy with the facial ink in the booking photo had just killed a prison guard at a hospital in Salt Lake where Curtis Algier, the guy with the tattoos had been taken for medical treatment. He shot the guard with is own gun. According to the gang task force cops the ink on this guys face means nothing. He is not affiliated with ANY group, gang, cabal or klan. He go the ink to look bad and the other inmates think he’s a wannabe lame-o.
HILARIOUS
love it!
Thanks…got my first ink last week, and now a friend sends me this link… Fate? Destiny? Or just her wanting to make sure I NEVER get anything quite as hideous as the ones here?
Anyway, kudos to you for such a great idea!
I notice a great many of these tattoos look brand new. Like the artist took the picture after they finished for their ‘book’. The truly frightening thing, is what are these ghastly things going to look like as they age? The truly crude ones, are most assuredly prison made. Ball point pen ink and a safety pin. They will be embellished over the years as their owners do life on the installment plan.
I feel sick thinking about all the bad tattoos out there! I just can’t help but click further and further back through the archives!
YOU are hilarious. Thank you for making me laugh, I got my daily equivalent of exercise just sitting here. No need to go to the gym today. I laughed so hard I almost puked, you are linked to my Facebook and I’ve been telling everyone.
This site is totally awesome, I found it while surfing, and I’m sure glad I did, I’m going for my first tattoo soon, but shit, it definitely isn’t going to be something I’m going to regret like these idiots. Keep up the good work!! I’ll be telling all my mates about this site. I couldn’t help but laugh out loud at some of the things people have.
You’ve just been bookmarked!
I almost want to fill some spots of my body with fail tats and send you the pics! Which I won’t do, since my tattoos are good taste shit.
Keep up the good work. You rock!
Funniest site I’ve seen in a long time. My friends agree. Rock on!
As an owner of over 59 hours of tattoo work, I can say that this site hits it. Funny shit. This is what you get when you dont think things though. I waited till I was 30 and was ready to be marked for life before getting my first tattoo. Some people arent so lucky
While the eye-candy is tasty, your fierce wit is worth the trip. Thank you, thank you.
Thank you so much. You make my colleagues and I laugh every morning. The tattoos are astonishing, the comments are great.
Sarah
I love this site, but can’t get over how many of the pics are just borrowed from “No Regrets: The Best, Worst, and Most #$%*ing Ridiculous Tattoos”. I’ve already seen *those* bad tattoos, I want to see new bad tattoos!
Some of the pics may be duplicated from elsewhere, but the witty captioning and the merry banter by the forum regulars is beyond compare.
Thanks for updating so often – love this site.
Jessica’s sublime banter keeps me coming back for more.. BIG UP
Stupid people make the world go round. Thanks for sharing them with the rest of the world!!
Your comments on each of them are hilarious!!!!!!
Just awesome! Acerbic tongue and a mind filled with the finer points of the Dada/Surrealist movement? I vote to marry YOU!
I laughed my fucking ass off!!! Your comments are the blood icing on the shit cake
)))
Hilarious content..and you comments are priceless and as witty as they get. Great job.
Could stay on here for hours….the commentary is almost the better part!
And, I can’t help it, because I used to be an editor: See Brian’s September 29th comment above – his third sentence is what you get when you don’t think things THROUGH.
Thanks for the laughs!
Wow….I can draw better than some of these artists. This site is great, makes me and my roommate laugh everytime gaurenteed. Think before you ink people, I thought for 2 years and mine isnt here.
Just was loking around and ran into your blog. Your comments are so ****ing funny. Great job!
People should really think about what they ink on themselves, seriously.
Your comments with the images are priceless!!
PLease add a Golden Girls tattoo link, there are enough of them, surprised that there wasn’t one. This site is excellent and feeds into my whole WTF morality when it comes to tattoos. A “Frasier” tattoo? WTH? Okay, if it was an A-Team or Knight Rider, I’d totally get it. But please, a Golden Girls link. There are enough of them (which boggles my mind, how can there be any?)BTW Love the Kanye Unicorn. What a… I want to say ‘douche’…okay, that’s what I’ll go with.
Oh me too!!! LOVE the husslin unicorn! I’m reeeeeeally sad that’s not my tattoo!!! Some other regrets…(that I don’t have them) are “meat curtains”and the “jesus pez”!! Man you guys have some great stuff on here. And some saaaad saaaad stuff!! Keep it up!! I can’t get enough!!
Waaaoow! I never realized penis tattoos were so popular till today, when I spent a large portion of it going through every page on here. Hilarious!
Hey some of the disturbing ones are at least good in the way that when the owner’s near and dear find out they were a serial killer/rapist, they won’t be THAT surprised.
Couldn’t drag myself away! Read all 23 pages, laughed out loud many times.
Great work Jenifer.
Your comments are superbly super and make inscrutable ink ugliness way funnier. Thanks a whole bunch!
Let’s face it, nice as I’m sure we all are, sometimes there’s nothing better than having someone to laugh at and here are pages and pages of fun! I can’t believe the truly awful tattoos people put on their bodies and worse still appear to say ‘thank you’ and then pay! Unbelievable! My 5yr old nephew can draw better than some of these so called tattoo ‘artists’. Just goes to show, spur of the moment doesn’t always work. For something as permanent as a tattoo you really should shop around. God bless stupid people for making my day!
)
Jessica, your posts make me laugh on a daily basis. The tattoos are funny, but the comments are hilarious! Keep ‘em coming!
This is my new favorite site! I’m constantly amazed/surprised/embarrassed by a lot of the ink on here. Makes me realize that not everyone possesses intelligent foresight. *shrug* Keep submitting those horrific tattoos and keep us entertained with your witty captions! I LOVE IT!
Blessed are ‘teh cheezmakers’, truly, for they have brought us Jessifer…or is it Jennica? Oh, hell girl! Just keep making with the smart/funny and we’ll call you anything you like…or not.
With the ratings of the tattoos does the thumbs up means we like the tattoo or we agree it’s ugly?
If I see your tattoo and it insults Jesus or the USA, I will kick your ass in 4 seconds or less. Promise
I never usually bother to comment, but your site is just the best!! The daily dose of schadenfreude I get helps me be a better person and I routinely feel better about the choices I have made (or not made)in my life. Your comments are so witty and smart, that perfect balance of bemusement, disbelief and pity – please keep up the good work!
I am usually in a state confused wonder when I see the tattoos, but I literally laugh till I cry when I read your comments. Awesome stuff.
This site has become the highlight of my day. I’m sharing it with everyone I can– thank you!
Dear Jessica,
I am a woman. I like men. I have never seen you or met you.
However, based exclusively on your hypo-hilarious antics and general cynicism I am prepared to marry and/or make passionate love to you.
Sincerely,
A
I love this site, it is definitely the commentary that makes it great though, very witty and smart, gives me a good laugh every time!
One and 3/4 hours later I have gotin(sp) through all 33 pages here, and have loved every second. I guess the knife tat I have on my arm that needs to be finished because it looks like a penis ain’t that bad after all…right?…right? Please say OK.
why did i now just stumble across this site? i’ve maybe spent a good hour dying of laughter. the captions are perfect. now i have something new to entertain me at work
OMG, this is one of my most favorite websites!! Your captions are hysterical!! Keep up the incredible work!! I look forward to your updates! <3
Thank you for making my day, this shit is hilarious!!! I’m working now at a tattooshop and me & my tattoo artist/boss laughed our asses off! Definately be checking this site out more often!! If anyone comes in the shop with a dumb tattoo ill ask if i can take a pic LOL!
Are you a chick? If you are we should get married. It would be awesome. We could have kids and everything. What do you think? And if your a dude, you should like totally get a sex change.
I LOVE this site. The writing is so sharp.
I want to see an “About” page for the author – who are you? I can already tell that we would be BFFs.
i am proud to say the i submitted a tattoo that was worthy of this site thank you for the entertainment you offer and your quick wit
This site is hilarious. Every day I look forward to starting my workday with a good laugh. keep up the good work.
If you’re a guy who owns this website, I find your witty sarcastic humour VERY attractive.
Dear sir or madam,
I love that you hate Avatar before you’ve seen it – it is the shit-est film ever. Your analysis of the film, and James Cameron’s skills – absolutely spot on.
She thought there could be no tattoo more offensive than Twilight tattoos featuring that guy’s face.
(BEAT)
She was WRONG.
(sound of shot gun being loaded with one hand by kind of shaking it up and down one time.)
(does that even work?)
I check this blog EVERY week and re-post some of the funniest to my friends on facebook…its so hilarious…thanks for the blog.
I want the person who writes these commentaries to know that you are truly funny and witty. Very very funny and clever. I love reading your comments!!
Once again, I’m laughing ’til I almost wet myself. Keep up the great work!
you make me laugh. you are wonderful.
Please, Please publish pics of such great “artistry” after 30 or 40 years. Or are penis unicorns and butterflies a new phenomenon?
You should be proud that your website is so popular that domain squatters are buying up mistyped versions of the address.
who is writing this commentary? Can I hire you?

I love tattoos and don’t for a minute regret having any of them, I’m currently getting a dragon tattoo sleeve done down my left arm can’t wait to get it finished! as can only afford shortsessions at a time. My tattoo artist is extremly experienced and also extremly expensive but, he’s worth it! by the way could anyone direct me to get a original aquarius tattoo please.
