Today, I woke up to a very unpleasant feeling. Apparently, the tattoo I got on my arm a couple of days ago attracted hundreds of ants during its healing process. They were literally carrying away pieces of my skin. I can not get the feeling or image out of my head. FML

LOL they definitely weren't lying when they said the internet could be brutal. First off, I have ten other tattoos and this is the first time something like this has happened. I take great care in all of my tattoos. I would like to think of myself as an incredibly clean person. Anal to a certain extent. I live with a very talented and successful tattoo artist. He too was freaked out waking up to ants in our bed. I didn't use anything scented. Just the typical A&D ointment. It was not infected nor did it get infected. It was just one of those crappy things that happen to people. I have had another tattoo since then and am happy to say there was no ant attack this time! But thanks everyone for your comments and likes! And for those that don't think you can see a tattoo in your future, please don't let this be the reason! I highly doubt this is a common occurance. Thanks again everyone and have a great day!

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Jesus ******* Christ! I thought you had to cover a tattoo during it's healing process? (Clearly I don't have any).

Oh, come on. Stop making stuff up just to ruin create03's outing as an idiot. It was so tough for her to admit it.

I really don't understand all of you saying you won't be getting a tattoo now? I have 3 and I've never had problems. OP must be living in extremely dirty surroundings for there to be this many ants. The likelihood of this happening to any of you is extremely rare. Take care of your tattoo and your home and you won't have any problems.

Gross. Just... Gross. I'll definitely make sure to step on every ant I see now!
