Notice
Ten square inches is not in any way equal to a ten by ten inch square.
Just in case you were ever going to buy a Groupon for tattoo removal. I wouldn’t want you to get really excited to get your hideous tattoo removed. Then, find out that your purchase only includes one tiny portion of the tattoo. And finally, rage when you find out that you will not be able to get your money back because...
