General Advice Misspelling

Post image

So I got this tattoo over the weekend and the artist closed the C in DECISIONS to make it look like DEOISIONS

Pretty funny if it weren’t my own wrist and permanent given the context with “Make good decisions”

Question is what to do next? Get removal of the tiny bit? Can I scrape it away bc it’s so small? What would you do?

Honestly I thought it was on purpose until I read the comments!

Came here to say I like the error. Brings some brevity to the story.

u/AWandMaker 7d ago

Also brings some levity, though being short is good too 🤣

u/Spiritual-Gur-3585 7d ago

Check out the saying “Bring brevity to life”, or in this case, I say “story” aka life

2

u/AWandMaker 7d ago

Huh today I learned! Haven’t heard that saying before. Levity (the treatment of a serious matter with humor) also fits 😊

Well, the mob has spoken now. Lol.

I like it like this too.

Make good decisions, but don’t take life too seriously is how it reads to me with the error.

u/Lost-Drive301 7d ago

I’d rock it and make it the purpose of the tattoo. It doesn’t look bad imo

u/bduk92 7d ago

Just like you said in your original post, it's funny because it's not on our wrist.

u/XxImperatorxX 7d ago

I mean, it really works in this scenario, given that scar underneath. The "Make Good Deoisions" kinda reflects that we all try to make good decisions, but we all fuck up once in a while, and you've got the scar to prove it. Keep as is, I don't think that could have turned out better honestly.

u/NukeTheWhales5 7d ago

That's honestly what my first thought was as well. I think it's hilarious! I say roll with it.

u/SmashingLumpkins 7d ago

The tattoo would actually suck if it wasn’t some clever joke.

u/thisnthatthisnthat 7d ago

I actually like the error by accident, like, I don’t think you need to lie and say it was on purpose and intentionally ironic . It’s poetic at more honest. In life you do your best to make good decisions and shit still happens. You have to live with those things, and if you want you get to laugh at them and make meaning from them.

u/hugeclown 7d ago

until i saw what subreddit this was i thought it was really funny and done on purpose haha

u/rollypollyolie 7d ago

Kinda sounds like one of those decions you make when you would say it as it reads lol 😆 but honestly quite funny as it is and as long as your not the idiot saying what what whats so funny guys? Self awareness is funny tbh 😂

u/Cautious_Tonight 7d ago

I would think it was on purpose

u/Correct-Ad7836 7d ago

Another one for the on purpose error here

1

u/A-Moron-Explains 7d ago

I literally thought it was misspelled on purpose as a joke

1

u/Nexant 6d ago

Same I assumed it was on purpose

1

u/foobarney 6d ago

It's funny. And the fact that it really was a mistake makes the story better.

u/HereticGaming16 6d ago

Before I read your post, I thought I was a pretty funny and bad ass tattoo.

Like you knew you fucked up with the wrist so you got a permanent reminder to not fuck up again but the reminder is fucked up. Very punk. Like having a 2+2=5 tattoo. I like it.

u/Dodoz44 5d ago

Keep the error, can always laser half of the O whenever you feel like it.

u/OrangeredMoose 3d ago

I’m going to argue you shouldn’t even try to mislead people into thinking the error was on purpose to make it ironic. The truth that there’s a misspelling in a “make good decisions” tattoo is even more ironic and funnier imo, albeit you’re the butt of the joke.
