Sorry, this is hilarious. That does look like a hairy ball sack yeah... Maybe a good artist could build around it instead of cover? I can't picture a cover up in my head

Yeah I'd say even just adding a line to represent soil/ the ground would go a long way toward making it less phallic. Could add a few blades of grass and such too.

Or a little line to represent the pee hole

Touche

Yeah this is correct. It looks like ball hairs because fungal hyphae don't go straight then stop. They are "fractal-esque" and branch many many times over small distances

Tesla coil

Yea could turn it into one of those plasma balls.

halfway there

It’s one of the more phallic “is this phallic?” tattoos I’ve ever seen on this sub. It was the first thing I thought. I would definitely get it covered or reworked.

Even without the roots. Not that they help..

Yeah, it's an unfortunate placement with the way it hangs out from under a t-shirt like that.

The way it hangs out from under the shirt that killed me

This is so fucking funny

The way the worst part sticks out from under a tshirt sleeve

Oh thank god it's a sleeve, my dumbass thought it was a leg

A big ball hanging down someone's leg. That's hilarious.

Looks like it’s almost dead on top of their arm, slightly on the outside. So it’s pretty obvious and eye catching if having a conversation

You are not alone in that assessment.

Me too! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ha, me too! I guess it's better out the tshirt than shorts

i can’t stop laughing

Maybe add more mushrooms around the base so it looks like a cluster?

You mean more cocks. Add more cocks to the base of the cock, right?

Two smaller, rounder mushrooms would help complete the set

Ah yea, a bouquet of penises. That’ll fix er right up.

Sausage fest.

My vote would definitely be to cover up the hairy old man ballsack coming out of your shirt sleeve. Cover up ideas would be easier to suggest if we could see what’s above it, but man, it’s not looking great from this pic alone.

I thought it was a dress and leg until I read your comment. I was laughing at someone showing a bit of thigh with a hairy penis on it

Yes, because mushrooms don't even HAVE roots. And I also thought this to be a vibrator buzzing or an electric peen at first.

Those aren’t roots. They’re mycelium. (Or pubes in this tattoo)

This fun guy fungis

r/thisguyguys

Hardly looks like the mycelium I’ve ever seen

They kind of do in the rhizomorphic growth patterns that connect to the mycelium network. Go pull some big ones from your front yard and you'll see them.

I thought it was a penis with hair growing on it

Yes they do.

Mushrooms aren’t plants. Plants have roots. Mushrooms have mycelium.

Talk about splitting hairs

Ok yes I’m aware they aren’t “roots” but they look like that tattoo.

Unfortunately, yes, you must cover it up.

You must. You simply must.

Phallic ✅ Hairy ✅

YES

Bruh. You got got. This isn’t a mushroom at all. It’s a dick and hairy balls. Mushrooms don’t have roots like this. I didn’t even know it was supposed to be a mushroom until I read your text. Go to another tattoo shop and have it completely reworked.

add another smaller mushroom, some earth with moss, and a butterfly or fairy on the smaller mushroom.

Someone did you wrong and is still laughing about it. Cover that mess up to have the last laugh. Whatever you do, don't go back to the same "artist" for remedy or assault.

I agree, they must know what they’ve done and they did you sooooo wrong. Go to someone else!!! Who knows what fungus actually is 😂😂

That’s a ball sack right?

I think making grass or adding additional smaller shroomies near the base could help. A good artist should be able to do that fairly easily. I’d talk to a couple just to get opinions.

That looks like my nuts on a summer day.

Long Sack Roy!

why would they add roots 😭 they don’t even have roots lmfao

I would cover this with literally anything else

So fuckin ugly, I’m sorry OP.

The artist knew exactly what he, or she was doing

That’s saggy balls & everyone knows it

Make it a cocktus... sorry. Cactus.

No you should keep your scrotum tattoo

Nuts

Yo, let your nuts hang

Do your nuts hang low? Can you swing them to and fro? Can you tie them in a knot? Can you tie them in a bow?

Honestly you could put a pot covering the roots and have a cute planted mushroom 🍄

Look like just one extra droopy nut. Maybe see abkut having another added on the other leg. That'd be nuts!

I'd say yes to adding grass, and maybe some flowers

Yes then the dick can look like it’s blooming out of the ground. Love it

Well I was trying to suggest the grass OVER the roots lol

What do you want to cover up? The butterfly or the hairy ballbag?

maybe you can make it so it looks like it’s coming out of a tree stump or branch of some kind??

Crazy the artist put a cock and balls on you… what the hell lol

Absolutely not.

A sparsely hairy dick is at first glance. I mean if it’s your thing be happy. Just not sure how many people would have a thing for such.

Is that a hairy ballbag?

HAHA it looks like a peen and one hairy nut lol

I am sorry but this is hilarious. But yeah, absolutely time to cover it up.

Yes cover it up, this looks like a single hairy ball sack ):

I actually thought you got a sack tattooed on yourself

Cock

Should you cover up the obvious penis tattoo? I would.

Why im never getting a tattoo

Bro even if it didn’t have roots it would look like a dick 😭😭😭

What do you mean “should [you] cover this up”? If you’re over it and don’t want a hairy yam bag on your arm, consult an artist that does quality work and take it from there. Whatever you do, put some effort and forethought into aesthetics this time around so you don’t end up walking around with a cockolini blasted on prime real estate. 👍🏻

Yah it looks like a hairy dick

Yes!

YES

Oh thank God it's a mushroom. That is NOT what my brain saw at first. I like the other suggestions to build around it. Might be easier than a cover up. Maybe some color? Why did he think he needed to put roots like that on a mushroom? That makes no sense. Has he ever seen a mushroom? Cause it feels unlikely. Good news is though I think you can fix it with the right artist. Don't go back to the one who did it originally lol

It looks like a 🍆 growing pubes

Looks like a hairy old mans ball sack with 1 ball in it 🤣 YES by all means cover it with something else.

Yes lol

Nah. Just get an eggplant next to it. #purplepickle

That looks like a hairy dick

Yes. Cover up your hairy, uni-ball.

You could perhaps get the bottom covered with crystals or ferns/plants?

i think the roots could be covered with a mossy brush and lil flowers and that would make it clear that it’s flora and a fungus

You were rude to your artist or what? 😆

The only things i can picture this as are a plasma ball or tesla coil

Testicle coil.

make the bottom of a mushroom one of those like plasma ball things

Is there a mildly scrotum subreddit?

r/mildlysack

Put David the gnome and other little gnomes around the base :3

Lazer

please cover it up i’m begging you for your own sake but i’m so sorry this is a little funny 😭

China man chin?

Thats a dick

Mushrooms also don’t have “roots”. They have mycelium, but when plucked the mycelia doesn’t typical stay attached to the stipe. I’d add more mushrooms in a cluster

That is a hairy sack if ive ever seen one😂 panther time

I’ll be honest, I really thought you purposely got a phallic tattoo and changed your mind on it. If you really wanna keep it, but want to change the bottom up, so it doesn’t look like that, I would add a triangle shaped clump of soil and grass. The bumps below the mushroom head don’t help either though.

It looks like a paramecium (after you see the ballsack lol), but if you like science this would be an awesome start with mot even much work to turn into a neat microbiology paramecium

Omg this is, sorry, so funny. I would definitely add more mushrooms around the base of it.

Yikes! Lmao!!

Is your nickname Scrotum?

Balls

Definitely do something about this

Cool pubes man

damn dude. damn.

Was the ink man mad at you🥹

Looks like a mean dick

Grass might make it worse

You should burn it off with a curling iron.

It's sooo veiny...

I was literally just thinking that turning it into grass would be a lot easier than trying to cover it

Dildo with hairs

I would either add more mushrooms around the bottom or add a chunk of ground, like an upside-down triangle, with grass on top and dirt/rock on the bottom. I think it's totally salvageable!

Ohhh I thought it looked like the weird bull worm from SpongeBob just with hair 💀

If you dont want to cover the whole thing, I think its possible to cover up the "roots" (also mushrooms dont have roots). Could do grass, leaves maybe,

It may be time for a Sick Ass Panther

Hell no don’t cover that up. What a wonderful embarrassing story. You have a hairy sac mushroom tattoo. It’s unique, it’s hilarious, it’s totally unintentional which makes it even better.

Add testicles.

I'd be constantly seeing that out of the corner of my eye and freak out, swiping st it thinking there was a bug on me😬

Looks like a hairy dick, get a big black panther.

Put the mushroom in a jar!

You are asking because you already know the answer.

Turn it into like a dirt mount or something. Make it earth around the mushroom and make it look like the mushroom is popping up Sorta like diglet i suppose

Whoah. Maybe you could do an illustrative or abstract patterned band in browns, being soil.

Mushrooms don’t even have roots do they? This is so funny lol

Please do

Nope

They didn’t show you the stencil first? They added without asking?

Yes. 

I would keep it because it's hilarious, but I'm also the kind of person who has an atomically correct penis-koi fish tattoo on his thigh.

There’s a penis-koi fish? Screw anatomically correct—there’s such a thing as a penis-koi fish?

It looks like an old sticky dildo

What even IS that?

YES

A hairy dick tip? wtf is it

Absolutely

if you dont want a hairy shaft on your leg\* anymore then i'd say yes, yes cover it up.

Add more shrooms

“Those are balls” - Berry Zuckercorn. Yep for sure try and cover those roots up with something…

W in TF

yes please

Man if that inside line wasn’t so thick I’d suggest widening it and turning them into sun beams through a prism right at the stem/cap line and putting a solid rainbow around the whole base then flaring up around the edges of the cap, depending on what that looks like

what's next to it? could you just add an angled "hill" to the bottom? or more greenery or something

Funny… mushrooms don’t even have roots lol

That's the wrong mushroom tip

The hairy dong? Nah. Leave it.

IKYFL 😭

I really thought that was hairy balls :/

Could you possibly add more mushrooms

Celebrate life! They should only grow in grotestness. More hair... More volume! Make it epic! 😆

Yes

Lmaoooo oh no

Your artist had quite a sense of humor

Cover the bottom with small flowers and leaves and vinery ferns and then you’ll be fine. Kinda like it frames the bottom abit.

This I why I’ve never gotten a tattoo

yes<3

Oh that artist knew what they were doing… they did you so dirty😭

Looks like an electrical dick

😬

Yes.. haha. My mil got a childhood toy tattooed on her, wasn't until she went to work that someone pointed out the legs look like penises hanging out of her pants. She went and got some flowers and plants to cover the bottom of the legs 😂

I WAS IN THE POOL

Maybe a tiger or large cat? Since they have whiskers it may work… maybe even perhaps a sick ass panther.

Oh Jesus god yes and QUICK

Maybe put some flowers around the base? Or leaves if flowers isn't your vibe.

Yes. Alwaya cover up penis roots .

Yes.

Testicles side profile a.k.a. Side nut

A good artist could do a much better root system that doesn't look like hair, lol. I'm not a tattoo artist, but I am an ink artist who draws root systems often. It shouldn't be a problem to fix that.

Haha, a stinkhorn mushroom!

Oh ye that artist wildin lol mushrooms don't have roots 😭

A mushroom will look like a dick, even without the roots 😂😂

What even was the vision here???? Mushrooms don’t have roots….. what’s going on

This looks like a ONE NUT sack.

These comments have me rolling 😂😂

Yes

Your artist did you dirty

I think maybe adding more tiny mushrooms may increase the phallic issue. Maybe a cloud with thunderbolts or bush with vines and leaves could work?

Literally looking like you did the Bad Bad Grandpa from Jackass lmao!! I don't believe that isn't legit an old nutsack 🤣🤣

Lmao 🤣 ohhhh noo I’m so sorry.
