Today, my dad found out I got a tattoo behind his back and is really really upset. When I got home from work my car wasn't in the driveway. When I asked my dad where it was, he replied "you'll get it back when your tattoo comes off." FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Same thing different taste
Inked
Today, I came to terms with the fact that my dad will die without knowing I have tattoos on my body. I'm afraid my dad will suffer a deadly heart attack due to the revelation, as he had two heart failures in the past. My dad is still the sort of person who thinks that people with tattoos are criminals. FML
Naughty girl
Today, my mom found out that I got a tattoo two years ago. She got mad and spanked me. I'm 33 years-old. FML
Thanks for coming to my TED Talk
Today, it's my birthday. My dad was supposed to take me to get a tattoo, but instead he went to the bar, got drunk, and told me how I was the biggest mistake he and my mom have ever made. FML
For life
Today, I was getting my first tattoo done. My parents told me it was a bad idea. My friends' parents told me it was a bad idea. I told them that people get tattoos done all the time and nothing goes wrong. Fifty minutes into the tattoo on my back, the artist said, "Oh shit, shit, shit. We can fix this." FML
Economic abuse
Today, I got my first tattoo. I felt good about it, until I told my mom, who was not happy. She responded by taking me out of her car insurance policy, family plan, and charging me for rent every month since I, "wanna be all grown up now.” FML
She'll get over it, one day, maybe
Today, is the day I got my first tattoo. It's also the day where my mom screamed at me, gave me the silent treatment, and kicked me out of the house. Apparently I’m not considered her daughter anymore, because my skin is “damaged” now. I don’t have other family anywhere, and I have nowhere to go. FML
Today, I realized my husband and I have been fighting a lot lately, so to show him how much I care, I got a tattoo with his name on it. He hates it. FML
Jailbird
Today, my dad came out of jail. He showed me his tattoo of a Bible on his chest with all his 13 kids' names on it. I'm the only one whose name is spelled wrong. FML
Parenting 101
Today, I got a tattoo. My mom got upset and threw a bitch fit about how my body "is a temple and it belongs to God.” I told her, “My body, my choice.” She responded with, “Oh really? Well, my house, my choice who lives here. Pack your shit and get the fuck out.” I’m currently in my car with nowhere to go. FML
Criminals
Today, I heard from my little nephews that in school, the father of one of their peers has his arms all covered in tattoos. Their grandpa told my nephews to stay away from people with tattoos, as they were likely criminals and wanting to kidnap children. He doesn't know I have a tattoo in my back. FML

When you willfully break the rules, don't come crying to FML when you see the consequences.

If you're over 18 or whatever the legal age is where you live, FYL. If you're under it, YDI.

ok, OP. FYL if you paid for the car and it's in your name. YDI id it is your parent's car that they have for you to drive. If you live with your parents, you are obliged to follow their rules.... and the car is theirs to take away. =/

I'm lucky enough that my parents let me stay here rent free and they pay for food. For one reason, to save up money. And my parents bought my car, but I got the title when I turned 18. And they have no room to talk with tattoos. They have em. They only bitch because I'm going too fast with it. Other than that, its my body. They respect that.

I love how you are giving advice to have the cops called on someones parents. It's obvious you have no respect for your own parents.

you're ignorant. if its in his name, it doesn't matter what age you are, it's his car.

Your dad overreacted. I assume since you have a car, you're at least 16. It's your body, not his. Although YDI for not getting in a place that can be hidden. He wouldn't have known otherwise.

@barnes88 What part of "and you bought your car" did you not understand in Nemephosis's comment? If they bought the car then it would be in the OPs name not the fathers. If you read they comment again you will realize they said if these two things are true then this is what you should do. Who would pay for a car for themselves and then put it in their father's name? You should think things through before calling someone ignorant. If this is merely a case of the comment hopping from where it should be then disregard what I have said.
