I got a tattoo


Recommended Posts

One of that Artists at the place I frequent has an ongoing joke with tattoos. He offers a free tattoo of the month, every once in a while. Generally these are the most horrid and demented designs he can come up with. Lat time he offered this I recall, it was this giant rainbow colored penis with bright golden wings. Someone actually took him up on the offer. To this day a picture hangs on the wall, a picture of a man, with his shiny flying penis tattoo.

That has to be one of the funniest things I have ever heard!

Oh.. and to Reh (Rich)... Did you have to pay by the "letter" maybe that is why you have 5 "letters" instead of just one symbol... I feel for you man, but I can't help but laugh a little....

lol that's why I won't get any tattoos with symbols from other languages. You just won't know what you're getting unless you either know specifically what you want or you know the language. I got mine done in engrish, so it proudly labels me as Gramma in nice feminine lettering.

hehe Cheers

Guys, THIS is the kanji symbos for "peace"

It's the combination of Serenity and Harmony. And yes it was thoughouly research by myself. The reason for the mass of confustion, is like most languages there are multiple ways to translate an idea/thought/word.

I've seen this happen to several people I know.  I guess its shown up more, because at least around here getting different chinese and japanese symbols is the latest thing in trendwhore tattooing.

Uh, I thought the "oriental character on my arm/neck/leg" trend died with the 90s...

Maybe it's just now catching on in Europe :x

Oh and the characters are 平和 for those who want to copy and paste.

Unfortunaly that along with the tribal thing that goes around the arm keep being done even to this day even though their style was 10 years ago.

I guess people don't know what the new thing is yet so they just follow the rest of the crowd in getting the same tattoo.

Sorry to reserect this old thread i started, but i just wanted to update everyone that i have had my tattoo checked by a translator person, and she has told me that there is one symbol from the end which in itself means peace. The others around it do not actually symbolise anything at all, so they are just pictures around the word Peace.

It looks good and i think on this occasion i have been lucky.

Anyway... A mod will probably close this thread now, so thanks for the help, to those who had helpfull comments etc.

I will post a pic at some point, but i am rather busy at work, and do not have a camera/scanner etc at home.

Cheers,

Rich
