bad tattoos

If you ever feel like you're a bad person or call yourself trashy as a joke, boy, do we have some news for you. There's an entire internet's worth of proof that it can get much worse. From parents dragging their children into their toxic drama, to people who have no qualms about being a homewrecker, these garbage people are so awful that they honestly make us feel better about ourselves. We just hope their hypothetical offspring somehow turn out better than their classless parents. 

We all have our trashy moments in life, whether it be getting a little too drunk at your distant relative's wedding or becoming so lazy that you let your car become a literal dumpster, but some people are truly next level pros at bringing the trashiness. It seems like you have to achieve a certain degree of shamelessness in order to channel the garbage person within, and these people have certainly tapped into something impressively cringe. Hopefully these posts will make you feel better about those personal low points you'd love to forget. 

Eccentric pop star Grimes never fails to perplex the internet, and this time everyone's talking about her new 'alien scars' tattoo. This week Grimes posted a picture showing off her full back tat—an unusual symmetrical design made to look like scars using white ink. Though most of her fans were supportive and impressed, a good handful people on the dubious side reacted with roasts and memes. And since we're all about the memes around these parts, that's what we'll be focusing on. Though we respect the pop icon's right to do whatever the hell she wants to her own body, we love a good spicy meme that pokes fun at a celebrity. Keep scrolling for some of our favorite funny Twitter reactions to Grimes' alien scars. 

Think your friends hate you and that you're a total weirdo? Feel like you've made a lot of bad decisions? These cringey people might help to put things into perspective.

Getting a tattoo is - or should be - a serious decision. Getting inked up is a hell of a lot easier than getting a hasty tattoo removed. That's why you should never get the name of that person you're absolutely in love with after just a few months of dating. It's also why you need to choose an artist you trust, and try not to request a tattoo when you're under the influence of alcohol or under the influence of stupidity. These awful tattoo fails will probably scare any lackadaisical ink addicts straight.

We've got to hand it to these, uh, aspiring artists. While we respect anyone's desire to pursue a creative outlet, these artisans are showing nothing short of inflated self-esteem. Making crappy art is one thing, but having the gall to charge an exorbitant sum for it, or even tattoo the cringe is where things start to baffle us. Here are some serious offenders.

We're not sure who is more to blame: the people that actually immortalized these images on their bodies, or the so-called tattoo artists that changed these peoples lives forever. Either way, these photos of terrible tattoos are pretty much guaranteed to shock and entertain you - they might even make you lose your lunch. The cringe is real.

They say laughing is therapeutic, so go on and get memeing!

Warning: these tats may cause unhealthy levels of cringe.

These people f***ed up bad.
