Pot head lardy abuses crowdfunding to remove face tattoo
A US woman has successfully crowdfunded her face tattoo removal after setting up a fundraising page online.
Tabitha West set up the page to remove the unsightly body art - a decorative ‘420’ written across her forehead - which she said she got when she was “young and dumb” but is now making it impossible to find a job.
4/20 is the unofficial symbol of marijuana legalisation movement - it is falsely believed to be the police code for cannabis possession.
Ms West, from the small town of Mexico in New York state, said she “can't stand to look at [her] face” in the mirror and had even contemplated killing herself because of it.

The page has raised over $900 (£627) in just two days - beating her original target of $800 (£557).
Writing on the page - which she said was inspired by a friend who used it after she had a house fire - she thanked everyone who donated money and dismissed her critics.
She said: “Thank you to the people whom wished me luck and wasn't down on me for putting this on this site.
“I said to myself for years I wouldn't but I did so people that disliked my fundraiser you can kiss my a** sorry.
