Short of LGBT rights and abortion, I've found no topic quite as polarizing as tattoos.
There's even slurs for each camp!
As a dirty inky, I celebrate today.

I don't really have anything against tattoos. But I have none. Mainly because I can't commit to something that permanent.
ReplyDeleteI don't want them but don't much mind them. And it's always amusing for me to see someone with Sino-Japanese characters (what the Japanese call "kanji" tattooed on them...and it's obvious that the person doing the tattoo had N-O idea of how those characters work. Kind of like seeing something written in "English" by someone totally ignorant of the language who doesn't know the difference between upper-case and lower-case letters, can't really spell, and doesn't know what the words mean anyway.
ReplyDeleteI've kind wanted a tat in Chinese that says, "I don't speak Chinese."
DeleteI could write the characters out for you, but you'd be better off getting a real Chinese person who's literate in Chinese and can handle a writing brush for the calligraphy. Chinese calligraphy is an art in itself.
DeleteEven more fun would be, "This is not Chinese" in Japanese.
