Today, I got my giant Game of Thrones tattoo finished. Despite the fact that I had spelt it out for him, the artist wrote "You no nothing John Snow." It's the focal part of the tattoo. FML

I guess your tattoo artist knows nothing either.

Brilliant! With the way English is… erm, evolving, your tattoo will become more correct over time. You'll have fun explaining how it was originally misspelled to future generations using nothing but emoji.

I hope you didnt pay for it. Can you sue him for the cost of removal?

You could get a line across "no" and it won't seem so much as a mistake!

and here is a lesson on why you never allow free hand. my tattoos were drawn, approved, stenciled on, and approved again. if I would have said I wanted it changed after seeing the stencil, it wouldn't be permanently on my body....I'd flip shit if anything were misspelled on me.

I have four tattoos that involve words and none of them have spelling or grammatical errors. Even if your artist doesn't use a stencil printed ahead of time and draws freehand on your body -- you should never get a tattoo without SOME kind of stencil -- you should be checking it over and double checking while the process is happening. Sorry, but you deserve this one.

That tattoo will seem a bit dated in 20 years

Some people get tattoos so that in the future they can look at them and remember/think about something in their past

I thought tattoos were usually drawn on temporarily first, so you get a chance to see it "on the canvas" so to speak, before comitting to it, and the tattoo artist using that as a guide for the actual tattoo? YDI for not verifying it looked correct on your body before going for the needle.
