BEFORE committing to a tattoo, most people spend months (if not, YEARS) agonising over their design - after all, it's going to be on your body forever . One person who knows a little something about this is 25-year-old Leah Holland - who waited two years to get a very personal quote tattooed on her arm. In a viral TikTok video , Leah explained how she got the questionable tattoo on 4 March 2020 - just two days before Kentucky had its first case of coronavirus . The inking on Leah's forearm reads: "Courageously and radically, refuse to wear a mask." "It basically means being true to yourself and real," she said. "And not pretending to be something you're not." She told Buzzfeed News: "Basically I had a friend that said this quote about me. "We were just talking about things that we really admire about the other person, and he said, 'You courageously and radically refuse to wear a mask.'" Although she was chuffed with the inking at first, little did Leah … [Read more...] about Woman accidentally gets the most hilariously unfortunate pre-Covid tattoo – and has had to hide it for a year

Parents often love to fill their homes with photos of their children from over the years, expanding this to include grandchildren and other relatives as time passes. One mum has a cabinet covered in family photos in her home, but her daughter recently noticed something odd about the display. A TikTok user named Rachel Frost from the US, shared a video of her mum's picture collection, showing various weddings and smiley babies. But as she looked through the images, she realised she couldn't see one of herself anywhere. She asked her mum what was going on, saying: "Umm... mom? Did I get bumped? "Did I get bumped?
