A place for shitty tattoos and stories behind shitty tattoos, either in taste or execution...or both. Let's all laugh at the awful creations people have volunteered to have on their bodies for the rest of their life (barring expensive and painful removal surgery).

For good tattoos, check out /r/tattoos and /r/tattoo.


SUBREDDIT RULES:

1. Be Civil:
This is a forum for bad tattoos so please keep the insults to the tattoos themselves and not the person the tattoo is on. Do not sexualize anyone in posts or comments. Please practice good Reddiquette by not insulting and/or threatening other users in comments, warning bans will be issued followed by permabans for repeat offenders.


2. No Reposts:
Check the new queue before posting. Duplicate posts will be removed. No crossposts as it can encourage brigading.


3. Don't Post Your Work:
Only submit images of tattoos done by others and DO NOT promote who did the tattoo. You can submit your own tattoo as long as it was NOT done by you, but do not mention your artist. 


4. No Doxxing:
Tattoos are, by definition, identifiers for humans, but when submitting please omit the face of the person either by censoring or cropping. Do not post identifiable information (other than the tattoo) if you know the person who has the tattoo. FYI posting the full name of a public figure is NOT doxxing. Crossposting from other subreddits is not allowed as it can identify the person with the tattoo and/or encourage brigading. All identifying information MUST be removed from all submissions, including social media handles.

5. Be Shitty or Trashy:
Tattoo must be shitty, either in taste, concept, or execution. Tattoos will be deemed shitty or not shitty at mods' discretion.

6. No Self Promotion:
If you are selling something, spamming the sub, or trying to promote your social media and/or OF account, your post/comment will be deleted and a warning ban will be issued. 

7. Tag all NSFW Submissions:
If your submission is NSFW (nudity, almost-nudity, medical gore, profanity, etc.) please tag it as such. If you aren't sure if your post will be considered NSFW, tag it anyway!

I have finally worked up the courage to post my life’s biggest embarrassment.
