Today, I went out drinking with my tattoo artist brother-in-law. I was so wasted that I agreed to let him try working on me. I woke up with a tattoo of an animated marijuana plant smoking a cigarette. This'll look just great when I'm defending clients in court. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got piss drunk. Being a tattoo artist, I came to the intoxicated conclusion that I could save much more money doing my own tattoos on myself. I now have my ex-boyfriend's name permanently on my thigh. It's not even spelled right. FML
Today, I was looking at tattoos and fell in love with a really cool looking one, so I decided to get it. I later showed it to a friend who is a cop. He informed me that it is a gang tattoo. I think I just put a target on my ankle. FML
Today, I woke up after a long night of drinking with my friends. I vaguely remembered visiting a tattoo parlour, but nothing prepared me for the sight of the words "YOLO" and "MOFO" tattooed across the fingers of my left and right hands. Now I'm officially a bandwagoning douchebag. FML
Today, I found out that my wife is leaving me for a tattoo artist. I was in rehab and she met him getting a tattoo as a surprise for me. FML
Today, I went to a tattoo artist to get what I thought would be really cute, elegant finger tattoos. I left with wobbly, blobby messes all over my fingers. FML
Today, I finally got a tattoo of an alchemy symbol that I've wanted for years. I also found out later that symbol stands for urine. FML
Today, I found out the tattoo symbolising my marriage turned out to be more permanent than the marriage itself. FML
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
Today, I got a tattoo with my boyfriend's name on it. As we're coworkers, I showed it to him thinking he’d love it. He told me he couldn’t continue the relationship anymore since he realized he wants to fix things with his wife. Three hours of pain and 2 years down the drain. FML
Today, my friend sent me a link to a "horrible" tattoo that he found online, that a guy had gotten at my tattoo parlor. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I think the big question is where is the tattoo located?

Well it's not on your face is it?! I surely hope not. Put on proper clothes to cover it and you'll be fine.

Things never to do: 1. Get drunk before getting a tattoo/piercing. Two words: Blood thinner. 2. Let someone drunk go anywhere near you with sharp objects. Four words: Are you an idiot? 3. Let OP defend you in court.

They make a cream that fades tattoos and causes them to dissappear. It's at Walmart.

Most importantly, where is the tattoo?

I find it odd that most of your first questions were, "where is the tattoo"?" because mine was definitely, "how in the hell can you have an animated (moving) tattoo?"

Animated as in a cartoon. Like, an animated movie is a movie completely made of drawings (cartoons)

Not a pothead (actually never tried marijuana before nor do I have any interest, but making and baking with cannaoil is on my bucketlist) but I like how "not a dumbass pothead" is his screenname. No you're someone who makes idiotic decisions, gets drunk, makes more idiotic decisions, and who will have to pay out the ass to have it lasered off your skin. But at least you don't smoke weed! :P Anyways I'm guessing the OP got it somewhere both 1. visible (since he worries about people seeing it) and 2. on a place where there's a lot of movement (like a joint). So I'm guessing the back of his wrist, perhaps. Other places like the back of his neck seem plain unsafe. Then again he was drunk....

So you "agreed"? He says you did? The same tattoo artist who inked you while you were wasted? At best, he's got a questionable work "ethic", tattooing drunk people, at worst he deliberately played you. "Consent" is something different.

How is this anything other than a YDI? NEVER go drinking with bad people.

'bad people'. Who, tattoo artists? Why?

Never go drinking with a tattoo artist. Never.

I think you should find yourself a new drinking bud.
