Ben Affleck’s HUGE back tattoo is the talk of Twitter (and they’re not impressed)

Wow!

Pictures of Ben Affleck topless at the beach have become to talk of Twitter – and not for the reason you might think. The Justice League actor was pictured with a large phoenix tattoo spread across his back and people are asking a lot of questions. Mostly because two years ago, when Ben was first spotted with the tattoo, he claimed it was fake and simply for a movie role. However, fans haven’t forgotten and are now very, very confused. Is it real? Is he still wearing a fake tattoo?

Next time you're feeling sad, remember that you're not Ben Affleck so you (probably) don't have a tattoo so big and so ugly and so universally ridiculed that you had to lie and say it was only temporary and just for a movie when it is so clearly not.

Ben Affleck's back tattoo is, and I'm saying this without hyperbole, one of the funniest goddamn things I've ever seen in my entire life. Holy moly. What a wonderful gift to all of us this is. Truly a great day to be alive because of this obscenely dumb tattoo. (via @people) pic.twitter.com/8LtvmF1Z5h

The weirdest part of the Ben Affleck back tattoo is that he lied saying it was for a role AND THOUGHT WE WOULDNT FIND OUT

Ben Affleck definitely knows all the words to at least one Limp Bizkit song that wasn't a radio single pic.twitter.com/ctQsG6kFOP

I’m glad we could all rediscover Ben Affleck’s insane back tattoo together.

And it’s not just the general public who have an opinion on Ben’s ink, Jennifer Garner also had something to say. “You know what we would say in my hometown about that? ‘Bless his heart. A phoenix rising from the ashes,” she told Vanity Fair. “Am I the ashes in this scenario? I take umbrage. I refuse to be the ashes.”
