Some things come with an implied "buyer beware" warning. Tattoos are certainly one of those things.
With tattoos, you are paying someone a large sum of money to permanently affix an image onto your body. Nothing could go wrong, right?
Haha, you wish.
And so does TikToker @stayathomerockstar, also known as Courtney, who ended up with a Rocket the raccoon tattoo with an extremely NSFW component.

The placement of a wrinkle in Rocket's clothing on his left knee unfortunately, on stencil and without color on her arm, looked ever so slightly phallic.

The design, shown at full in a follow-up video, fell apart when the artist decided to follow the stencil a little too closely and ignore a line on the kneecap that looked questionable at first glance.
"Yes I'm getting it colored in, yes I'm finding a different artist," Courtney clarified in the comments.
"No I'm not giving him legs he will be on his knees, no I will not be doing it red."

The lines in the image do appear a lot less severe than Courtney's line on her forearm.
"If I saw that, from an artist's standpoint, I would have been like, 'hmmmm....I'm not gonna do that,'" Courtney said.
"I mean, he did it correctly, but unfortunately.....yeah."

"I think he's cute okay? Don't come after me, he's my little homie," she added and then whispered: "We just need to rectify the penis."
On the plus side, Courtney said her unintentionally phallic tattoo has been a started plenty of conversations.
