Two trailer park residents in Dayton, Ohio are going to be battling this out in court over the next few months.

Tattoo artist, Ryan L. Fitzjerald was hit with a $100,000 lawsuit last week by his ex-girlfriend Rossie Brovent. She claims that her boyfriend was supposed to tattoo a scene from Narnia on her back but instead tattooed an image of a pile of excrement with flies buzzing around it.

Apparently Ryan found out that she had cheated with a long-time friend of his and this was his way of getting even. Originally Rossie tried to have Ryan charged with assault but it turns out this crafty tattoo artist got her to sign a consent form prior to the tattoo and it said that the design was ‘at the artists discretion’, she claims; “he tricked her by drinking a bottle of cheap wine with me and doing tequila shots before I signed it and got the tattoo”. “Actually I was passed out for most of the time, and woke up to this horrible image on my back.”

Lol! You would feel pretty bad if that was you though. Then again I doubt I'd ever even get a tattoo.

Rightho, she didn't read the form and signed her life away.
 
I thought it was a melting candle, surrounded by fluttering butterflies, you know, as some sort of skin-based pictorial commentary upon how Hope (the butterflies) can coexist with Love (the eternal flame).





Or it could just be a coiled turd.
 
lol, reminds me of a similar news story a while back where a giant gentlemans sausage was drawn on another guys back.

theres an e-cookie for anyone who finds the story im on about (because im too lazy to look for it myself

Doesn't matter. The form may have said that the design was "at the artist's discretion" but there's no way a "reasonable man" would expect that to mean that when asked for a scene from Narnia the tattoist would draw a pile of poo.

The fact that he appears to have plied her with drink is hardly going to go in his favour either.
 
What's the point in a contract if you can just say "oh i didnt mean it"?

Gonna gets me some mortgage interest back then.

The point of a contract is that it has to be worded clearly. This contract was not. Any decent lawyer should trample all over it. Assuming it even exists.

For the record I'll guarantee that your mortgage contract is worded in the most intricate fashion imaginable, and that neither party to it was drunk when they signed it.
