Proofreading: tattoo fails pt.2

When it comes to poorly proofed ink, I just can’t stay away.

Since I wrote that first post, dozens of examples have been tossed my way, and they’re too good to ignore. Having said that, I should stress that I’m a tattooed person and I respect everyone’s right to get inked. I’m not a tattoo snob and laughing at people isn’t my jam. This post is about the ultimate power of proofreading…especially when the copy is permanent.

That being said — get the anti-bac out, lads. We’re going in for round two…

Believe in youself

I hoop you do.

Herb hatred

Among all the tattoos dedicated to coriander (there are lots), this was the most error-ridden. Rosemary FTW.
