Bloke asks for his mum's advice on what tattoo to get – and takes her answer WAY too seriously

IT goes without saying that you probably shouldn't rush into getting a tattoo – after all, it's something that'll be on your body forever.

With this in mind, one bloke decided to ask his mum's advice before committing to his first ever inking – and then took her answer a bit too seriously.

Posting the hilarious images on Reddit, the man started by messaging his mum: "Gonna get a tattoo today, what should I get?"

As he wasn't certain what he wanted, the bloke's mum tried to convince him to think about it for a while longer.

"If you don't have need for one, don't get it," she replied. "Tattoos are for something important."

But rather than following her advice, the man decided to get these wise words inked on his arm forever.

After attributing the quote to his mum, the bloke captioned the post: "Mom knows best!"

Needless to say, the questionable tattoo left other members of the forum in hysterics.

"I would do that," one joked. "To troll my mom for the rest of her life? Hell yes!"

Taking issue with the mum's advice, another added: "People act like every tattoo needs to mean something very'd e e p'."

"This is incredible," a third wrote.
