New tattoo turned out to be a disaster

So I finally got this new tattoo. Wanted to get a cool quote inked in Latin. Guess what, I ended up with 'Pasta is eternal' emblazoned on my arm(not exactly those words, but yeah). Trust your sources, pals. Google Translate isn't one of 'em.

While it's not what you intended, the Romans did love their pasta (well, kind of ... it's a debated topic among historians!). Maybe you could spin this into a nifty little story about ancient Rome and its love for carbs! At least, that's how I'd handle it.

Sympathies, bud. Got a tat with friends in Thailand years ago and ended up with 'Chicken Noodle Soup' in Thai on my leg. Google Translate was the culprit then too. So here's looking at you, Pasta comrade!

Oh man, that's rough. But look on the bright side - at least it's a good story, right? For what it's worth, I'd recommend looking into a skilled cover-up artist, or just roll with it. Might become your signature thing, who knows?

Ravioli, ravioli, give me the tattoo-li! Mate, I'd wear that phrase with pride. Carbs are life, carbs are eternal. You've just become the pasta messiah.

Tattoo artist here. Honestly, tons of ppl make this kind of mistake, but usually we catch it before the needle hits the skin. Btw, there are loads of awesome cover-up artists out there who specialize in 'Google Translate fails'. But maybe next time spend a bit more time researching, yeah?

Wait... you mean to tell me that 'Google Translate' isn't a reliable Latin scholar? Hold on, let me pick up my jaw from the floor...😂

Haha, hey at least you ended up with something unique, eh? Pasta is eternal, mate... could be a deep metaphor for life or somethin'. And let me tell you, most of us Latin nerds are all about those cheeky translations.

LMAO!! Dude, I don't know what you're worried about, 'pasta is eternal' sounds like the kind of wisdom we all need in our lives 😂😂
