Today, I was yelled at while I was shopping by some lady, because she saw my tattoo on my arm. She screamed that I'm the "spawn of Satan" and told me I'm going to hell. It's a fake tattoo of Mickey mouse. FML

Today, I got into trouble at work because a customer complained about my face tattoo, I don't have a face tattoo but I do have one behind my ear. Nonetheless, I still got written up and had to cover it with a band-aid, which ripped out hair when I took it off. FML

Today, I went to get a tattoo of my girlfriend's name to surprise her. Halfway through the tattooing, she called and broke up with me. FML

Today, I had a woman throw a clipboard and yell at me to then storm off, still yelling in the mall where I work, all because I'd told her it was too late to do a piercing tonight. FML

Today, my quite squeamish girlfriend came with me to get my latest tattoo. She saw a few drops of blood, screamed in the tattooist's ear, and completely fucked up part of the outline. She had to alter the tattoo drastically to cover up the mess and now it just looks bad. FML

Today, my friend showed off her new tattoo, which is supposed to say "bad bitch" in Italian, and I had to point out that it actually says "defective female". Her response was to cuss me out and inform me that I'm no longer part of her social circle. FML

You should have put down the tattoo gun and just stared at her for a few minutes before saying "now, do you know what a tattoo is?"

were you pointing your tattoo gun at her? were you threatening her with offensive tattoos? were you also smiling weirdly? hmmm... my deduction skills are totally so fab and I must say, she might be on to something here.

What does she expect tattoos can hurt? Jesus some people are ridiculously stupid.

Your inserting ink in her skin with a needle what did she expect?! I have a low pain tolerance and I did fine with all three of mine (all large pieces, one with color, one shaded one directly over shoulder blade) It hurts but it's not that bad.

Some people are very sensitive. Don't take it personal. I love tattoos and for me they don't hurt one bit!

The question is... Were you tattooing her when she said that? Or is this just a coincidence?

why would this even be a question? why else would they make the statement that they're a tattoo artist? lastly, how would it be a coincidence and an FML?

He never mentions that he was TATTOOING her. He could have been raping her, for example.

You could have chosen literally anything else that causes pain for that second sentence. Is that supposed to be funny?

What did she think was going to happen?! It's pretty common knowledge that tattoos hurt.

I have 9 tattoos and counting. Tattoos hurt, but I have had back surgery so the pain of a tattoo is nothing compared to what I went through with my back. If you have a low tolerance for pain I don’t recommend getting a tattoo.
