People left in hysterics as woman shows off her mum tribute tattoo, with a VERY unfortunate spelling mistake

The Sun3 days ago

SHE wanted to get a tattoo tribute to her mother on her arm.
So opted for a cursive design which was meant to read " my mum is my angel".

However, the tattoo artist made an epic mistake while doing the inking, and ended up writing: "My mum is my angle".
A snap of the etching was shared on Facebook, with people quick to share hilarious comments related to the unfortunate error.
"What acute mom!" one wrote.
"There is a degree of humour in this post," another joked.
"Sometimes she's acute mum, sometimes she can be obtuse, hopefully straight and always right," a third commented.
"She's only 45 but looks about 90!" someone else said.
"I can't breeeeeathe," another admitted.
"You'd be surprised how many idiots spell my name wrong," someone called Angel commented on the post.
"The worst I've ever seen my name misspelled was in Palm Bay, Florida..." another Angel agreed.
"My receipt said 'engel' - f**king ENGEL!!!"
"And your tattoo artist is your worst enemy," someone else giggled.
"Dips**ts are everywhere," another groaned.
Unfortunately, any tattoo fan knows that incorrect inkings can happen occasionally.
However, when one person asked how they should deal with a mistake on their design, another hit back: "If you're a professional artist and not an apprentice working for free, and you get half way through a tattoo and you've messed up so a badly that you can't fix it, you've no business being in the profession at all."
They also added that they have never "messed up" while doing a tattoo, but has made small errors in the past.
However, they're nothing like the blunder on Facebook, as she said she's never made a mistake that "can't be fixed or incorporated into the design or the shading or colour seamlessly".
"So it's completely unnoticeable to both myself and my client, but like I say, it's rare, very rare," she insisted.
It's also important to speak up during a tattoo session if you aren't happy with the way your design is turning out.
"Whatever the case may be, when in doubt – speak up!" the pros at Adrenaline Studios urged.
"Don't be concerned about being a pest. This is your tattoo, not theirs.
"If at any point you think something is wrong you are responsible to speak up and the tattooist is responsible to respond, make adjustments, and/or explain what you're witnessing.
"Communication is everything between a client and artist – that communication must occur before, during, and after the tattoo."

Will I get lost – or liberated? My day at Glastonbury without a phone

For someone who gets lost on the way back from a restaurant bathroom, the 364-hectare (900-acre) sprawl of Glastonbury is a navigational nightmare. I've been to the festival three times, and between the music and the drinking I've always been glued to my phone, risking a rolled ankle as I hurry along, staring at the site map on the app and racing to recorrect my route to the shows. Losing power or losing my phone hasn't ever seemed an option here. Without it, I would cease to function. But perhaps, at the ripe old age of 31, it is time to face my fears. What would happen if I ditched my phone for the day? Would I perish from boredom or find myself liberated, finally embracing the full freedom of the Glastonbury experience? I feel like a frightened puppy at the start of the day, stowing my phone in my bag and attaching myself to colleagues who can show me around instead. I follow my first benevolent handler to the circus fields to watch a talk – so far, so straightforward. But as I head off to find some water, I momentarily lose my bearings on my way back to the group. I have to remind myself to be more attentive once I'm cast off alone to follow the signs (and the many helpful stewards I ask) to the Pyramid stage. Supergrass are playing and as I watch their skittish set I feel my phone start to buzz. I instinctively reach for it, worrying I'm missing out on group chats or work goings-on, and feel strangely bereft when I realise I have to let it vibrate, ignoring it to focus on the stage. I begin to feel a bit bored – something I haven't felt since I first had a smartphone to fill every quiet moment with scrolling. I am considering the state of modern boredom when the Spice Girl Mel C walks past. If I'd been staring at my screen, I never would have noticed her. I head over to ask for a selfie before realising I'd need to take my phone out, settling for an awkward wave instead. As the sun reaches a woozy afternoon peak, I reach into my bag and turn the phone off, free now to wander. I soon spot a group dressed as pirates and ask where they're off to. They hand me a warm bottle of vodka and squash and invite me to tag along. This is their eighth Glastonbury as a group and two of them, Jo and Chris, got engaged here last year. 'It's the most magical place on Earth,' Jo says. 'Nothing bad can happen to you, so have fun!' We spend the next few hours together, stumbling past an Elvis impersonator, the millennial rappers Rizzle Kicks and someone in a morph suit singing Frank Sinatra's My Way on a karaoke machine. As night falls, I find myself alone again, but no longer bored or lonely. Sebastian, a Greenpeace volunteer, spots me scribbling and asks what I'm up to. He tells me he's been coming since the 1980s. 'It's changed a lot and there's more of a corporate atmosphere these days,' he says. 'But you won't find a place with more friendly people in the world.' We try to make our way to the hedonistic south-east corner before losing each other in the crowd. Soon, though, the magic of the festival strikes, as I spot a friend from primary school who I haven't seen in two decades. In a sea of 200,000 people, this meeting feels very unlikely, and as we catch up into the early hours, I realise I would never have found myself here had I followed my phone and had arranged plans. Bleary-eyed, I eventually make the long walk back to the tent. When I wake up and turn on my phone, I realise I missed a meeting with a photographer the day before and an interview for another piece in the afternoon. There are downsides to being uncontactable, but it feels a small price to pay for a revelation: my sense of direction hasn't improved, but I now feel comfortable with getting lost. Perhaps I'll leave my phone at home more often.

Lewis Capaldi honoured with touching tribute from Google as he makes emotional return to Glastonbury stage two years after Tourette's battle left him unable to finish his set

Lewis Capaldi was honoured with a touching tribute from Google as returned to Glastonbury two years after his battle with Tourette's left him unable to finish his performance. The singer, 28, choked back tears as he declared 'I'm back baby' during his emotional return to Glastonbury's iconic Pyramid Stage for a secret set on Friday. In honour of Lewis' return, Google made a sweet tribute to Lewis as they added a 'welcome back' message to their search for anyone Googling the star. Below his name the words 'Welcome back Lewis - Someone we love' flashed up on screen alongside a love heart emoji. Google also posted a picture of the Scottish singer to its official Instagram, with the same caption. The Bruises hitmaker was greeted with cheers from the huge Worthy Farm crowd, following a two-year career hiatus. Delighted to be back in front of an audience he tearfully said: 'Two years ago I wasn't sure if I'd ever do this again, but I'm back baby!'. Lewis sung a number of his famous hits, before once chocking back tears as he performed brand new single Survive, which highlights the difficult period in his career following his last Glastonbury gig. Fans in the crowd could be seen crying and calling out his name before joining him in a rendition of mega-hit Someone You Loved. In his emotional speech, Lewis said: 'Glastonbury it's good to be back. Won't say too much up here today as if I do I might start crying, but I can't thank you enough for coming here and being with here'. 'Second times a charm hey! It's a short set today but just wanted to come and finish what I couldn't last time, also this was like the worst kept f*****g secret ever'. Following his set Lewis took to Instagram with footage of his performance alongside a post which read: 'Glastonbury it's so incredible to be back, thank you so much for having me x' Fans and famous friends rushed to the comments to welcome the talented musician back into the public eye. Sam Fender said: 'Return of The King', while Alan Shearer said: 'Love It': Paddy McGuinness gushed: 'Governor' and Jade Thirlwall shared a slew of loving emojis. Delighted to back in front of an audience he tearfully said: 'Two years ago I wasn't sure if I'd ever do this again, but I'm back baby!'' Following his emotional set at Worthy Farm in June 2023, the singer took time off to focus on his mental health and to 'adjust to the impact' of his Tourette's diagnosis. Also performing on Glastonbury's first day was CMAT, Lola Young, Alanis Morissette, as well Lorde with her own secret set. Meanwhile, Rizzle Kicks also made a return to the stage after their own 11-year hiatus and were joined by a surprise guest. Harley 'Sylvester' Alexander-Sule and Jordan Stephens performed the biggest hits, with the later introducing his mum on stage during their track Mama Do the Hump. Pointing to his parent, who was wearing a green wig, he exclaimed: 'Give it up for my mum!' as the crowd went wild. It comes hours after Lewis shocked fans by announcing his comeback on Instagram, sharing a snippet of his new song and the Henry Dockrill directed accompanying music video. Captioning his exciting post, he simply wrote: 'It's been a while…' before directing his followers to the link to his song in his bio.
