Here are 24 tattoos — besides the obvious, like tattoos of hate symbols — that people think are major red flags for someone's personality.
1."Anything tribal on a neon white man."
2."Something in a language they don't speak."
"What you think it means: 'Wisdom and Courage.' What it actually means: 'Fried pork with mushrooms.'"
3."A huge American flag. I'm sorry."
4."Anything political or weed-related. It tells me that has become their identity, basically."
5."The old feather and infinity symbol is mostly a giveaway for being a bit uninspired."
6."An inspirational quote tatted on someone screams they're trying desperately to prove something to themselves."
7."Nightmare before Christmas tattoo, because you know they're going to be very annoying."
8."My ex is 17 so he doesn’t actually have this tattoo, but he genuinely wants to get a Harry Potter death eater tattoo. ... To clarify, it’s not HP that makes me cringe; it’s the death eater specifically."
Warner Bros.
9."Any kind of emo/goth cartoon character. Like Spongebob or Patrick."
10."Childhood characters doing something unsavory. Like Winnie the Pooh in a dominatrix outfit. Decapitated Pikachu. Something like that."
11."It's rather inexplicable, but Tweety Bird tats attract the worst."
Warner Bros.
12.“'Loyalty.' The people I see with this tattoo...they usually don’t appear to be the loyal type."
13."Carpe diem." (Editor's Note: I'm just gonna include #YOLO, no regrets, etc. to this one.)
Warner Bros. Pictures
14."Stupid baseless words like 'Pay2play' or 'Boss movezzzz.'”
15."'Only God can judge me.'"
SME; Forward Music Publishing Co.
16."I used to work at an all purpose gas station in Pittsburgh, and was constantly told about a customer who had our store logo tattooed on his arm. Didn't make me proud; made me feel like I was joining a very corporate cult."
17."I knew a girl whose initials were VW and she had a Volkswagen logo tattoo. She was obsessed with their cars too; she didn't just get the tat because of her initials."
18."Clock tattoos. Especially if it comes paired with roses or a lion. It a very specific tattoo, but the people who get them are always so rude."
19."Comedy and tragedy masks. First three people I hooked up with had them in places you couldn’t see with clothes on. Apparently, I have a type. If I unwrap another human and find one, I may faint."
20."I swear guys with roses on their hands are generally assholes."
21."'Live, Laugh, Love.'"
22."I think this might just be an Australian thing, but having the southern cross tattoo anywhere is a red flag. Don't know why it's specifically the southern cross, but holy shit, every person I've ever met with that specific tattoo has been a walking red flag."
23."Sort: Ex's names. Placement: Face."
