Let me start by explaining that I don't have any tattoos. I almost got one during spring break my freshman year of college in Panama City. It would have been a parrot, for the record. No words.
Because words, my friends, can be tricky. Even if you tell the tattoo artist the correct way to spell and punctuate, you aren't guaranteed that your very permanent new body art will actually be correct.
I'm not sure it's entirely the tattoo artist's fault here:
In case you're having trouble, it reads, "Its not the cards your delt in life its how you play them."
Okay, so, um, contractions seem to be a problem. And spelling. And punctuation.
I don't want to seem like a jerk here, but if you're putting something permenent (Have I mentioned how permanent tattoos are?) on your body, and that something contains a word or phrase or clause or group of clauses, wouldn't you do everything in your power to ensure that it was correct before the ink goes in?
Apparently not.
And if you enjoyed this, you may want to check out where I found it: http://www.chrisconnollyonline.com/. He's got an entire post dedicated to body art with grammatical and spelling failures. The site does use some strong and suggestive language, so proceed with caution.
