A TikToker and Olivia Rodrigo fan had a message for anyone heading to the tattoo parlor: Spellcheck your tattoos!
We've all seen a tattoo in our time with a grammatical error or a spelling mishap, but TikToker Grace Flemming's is on a whole other level.
The Colorado Rodrigo fan went to get one of the star's lyrics from her song "hope ur ok" tattooed on her arm because of how much it resonated with her.
What she got instead is... well a hilarious conversation piece, at least?
The lyric reads, "address the letters to the holes in my butterfly wings." And that's what Flemming's tattoo was supposed to say.

Instead, however, it said, "address the letters to the holes in my butter wings." Not sure what butter wings even are, but they are definitely not what Rodrigo was singing about.
Flemming told People that at first she didn't even noticed the error; she left the tattoo parlor thrilled with her new ink and excitedly sent a photo to her boyfriend.
It was when he responded by asking, "did you take out the fly?" that she realized the error.
She told People:
"I was just so shocked! How did I not notice that?"
Where many of us would have been crestfallen, Flemming definitely saw the humor. She immediately began showing the tattoo to friends and family and asking if they noticed anything unique about it, which produced "priceless" reactions.
The response to Flemming's tattoo on TikTok was equally priceless.

Flemming went on to say that she's going to see Rodrigo in July and hopes to highlight the tattoo in some way so Rodrigo might see it. But after that, she's not sure if she'll have it fixed or just let it be.
She told People:
"It’s so funny, maybe I’ll keep it! It’s a fun story to tell. I think I learned to always double-check your tattoo stencil. Or you might end up with some butter wings."
Solid advice.
