1. Connect the Dots

How to be the life of the party. No lampshade hat required! Just a marker.

2. Ultimate Punch

Alternative idea: Tattoo some bread with peanut butter and jelly on your fist. Anyone want a knuckle sandwich!?

3. Optical Illusion

Next step: Find a hippie who's staring at their hands and BLOW THEIR MINDS.

4. UV Tattoo

Media Source

Invisible in normal light, but glows under a black light.

Like how my carpets are tattooed with cat urine.

5. Tattooed Hairline

Media Source

The most practical way to hide your shame since Rogaine.

Plus it's the only tattoo that doesn't have to be covered up when you're on your shift at Bed Bath and Beyond.

6. Periodic Table

Media Source

It's not cheating on my test, it's artistic expression!

On his other arm is a tattoo of all the State capitals.

7. Trampoline Jump

Media Source

BONUS: If you look at it upside down, it's a person diving out of a portal.

All it needs is a companion cube.

8. Hammer of Thor

Media Source

Whoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Al's Tattoo Hut.

9. Shhh...

Media Source

She's only a pair of glasses and a messy ponytail away from being a librarian fantasy.

10. Shadow Puppets

Media Source

The line work and the shading are good, but that's the weirdest looking bunny I've ever seen.

11. Lumos...Literally

Media Source

Though if it was legit, it would say "Nox" when not under the backlight. I know this because I was very cool and kissed a lot of boys in high school.

12. Snapshot

Media Source

Take a picture it'll last longer? OR get a tattoo...it'll last forever!

13. Favorite Snack Barcode

Media Source

When you love Oreos as much as this man, you wear your love for all to see...and scan.

14. Hostage Situation

Media Source

If he's crossing his fingers, does that mean he won't really do it?!

15. Pipe Play

Media Source

This is the tattoo for anyone trying to quit smoking, but still trying to fit in at the bar.
