VEGAN tattoo is (probably) made from animal products
In this anonymous Facebook exchange, a young woman proudly shows off her new "VEGAN" inner-lip tattoo to her friends; they offer her a string of congratulations that comes to an abrupt end when one friend points out that black tattoo ink is made from burnt animal bones, and thus the VEGAN in question will forever have an animal product in her mouth (in the comments at Reddit, someone points out that the ink needn't be made from animals, but it usually is, and unless the tattoo-ee knew enough to ask about it, chances are good she got the charred-bone version).
What an awful return to omnivorism
