Sometimes people feel like being a paying customer makes them impervious to criticism, but when it comes to responding to entitled customers who don't reveal the full story, the businesses themselves tend to have some pretty damning responses. Here's one where a business owner leveled with a guy who complained over a dollar taco. This one has an interesting twist regarding that pesky "voice was too high" remark.

Someone on AskReddit asked for people that speak Japanese and/or Chinese to share the very worst (or best...) of the tattoo translation fails that they've seen. These might be some of our favorite kinds of fails. Tattoo artists can be brutal when it comes to surprising people with tattoos that definitely don't translate to what people think they do.
These people are part of the reason why some parents tell their kids to never get tattoos. We can't imagine that there was a ton of thought that went into some of these. Hell, maybe we're wrong though. Maybe these are the kinds of tattoos that these individuals dreamed of getting all along.
In this wide world, we see a lot of hilarious translations and translation fails. Languages are complex and hard to understand completely. These frustratingly interesting observations on language and silly literal translations are a good example of that. This can come to a head when overzealous tourists try to get a tattoo in not only a language they don't understand, but in characters that are also completely foreign to them. Case in point, you don't want to misstep and end up as the "goldfish man"
These timeless tattoos might make anyone out there who regrets a particularly bad tattoo that they got, feel a little less worse about themselves. Sometimes, it just helps to know that there's always a bigger moron in the universe who got a dumber tattoo than you.
Here are some tattoos that are just off, really not well done, or were a not great idea from the start. Hopefully these people had a really good reason for their unorthodox ink. Done with cursed anything? Think some images could cursed but blessed at the same time? Here are some blursed images spawned from purgatory itself. For some straight up tattoo fails, here are some really not great tattoos people went through with.
Got an unsightly surgery scar that you wanna jazz up? Bam! Fishbone! We've seen our fair share of really not great tattoos. Bad tattoos are a dime a dozen. But these are flippin' cool. Here are a bunch of clever ways people used tattoos to cover up and repurpose scars and birthmarks into cool looking artwork.
Okay "tastefully" might be a little bit of a stretch. These are either pretty cool looking or funny though. If you're getting a tattoo of your SO's name and/or face, be sure that the relationship will last. Otherwise you might have to slap down a couple hundred dollars for one of these bad boys. For some outright bad tattoos, here are some really not great tattoos people went through with.
Of the many things to skimp on in life, tattoos are not on that list. Make sure you have a good vision in mind, mull it over, and find a professional artist. But that's just a suggestion. If you really really want a tattoo of Richard Nixon in fishnets and your friend's cousin's step-dad says he can totally do it in his garage for 50 bucks, we'd sure like to see how it turns out.
Sometimes we get too caught up in all the tattoo fails to notice all the truly cool ones. These took some mark or scar and turned it into a piece of art. Under the magic hands of some skilled tattoo artist, a mark that made someone self conscious instantly became a wonderful conversation piece.
Ariana Grande's intentions with this tattoo were to promote her new album, 7 Rings, and instead she ended up sharing a tattoo that says "BBQ Grill", to the online world. Naturally, the fans and trolls of Twitter clashed online to defend and condemn her seemingly careless move. There's talk of the fact that she stopped the tattooing process due to the pain, but that didn't stop her from sharing the unfinished tattoo, that did NOT say 7 Rings in Japanese.
