Well, at least he’s got a conversation starter.

Steven Laverty, a loveless father of one, might have a hard time finding a lady friend after he got “What about ye?” tattooed above his eyes.

The Northern Irish phrase means “How are you?,” but Laverty’s friends and family must silently be thinking, “WTF?”

According to Caters News Agency, the 24-year-old got the eye-opening tattoo while he was at his cousin’s bachelor party in Spain with 15 of their closest friends. The group was partying and binge drinking for three days when Laverty had the bright idea to etch the fateful words onto his face even though his mom and friends told him not to do it.

Laverty was having none of their warnings, so he snuck off and got the tattoo, only to wake up the next morning full of regret.

It’s a regret that he’s going to have a hard time hiding: Instead of getting a small tattoo that would disappear when his eyes opened, the piss-drunk Laverty decided to go so big that his ink is visible no matter the state of his eyes.
