You are ignorant and stupid.

although I also cannot stand people who talks about their tattoos with everyone they meet on the street
it’s so god damn annoying!

P.S. Getting a tattoo while sober is uncool and ruins the experience.

—–Learn Chinese and you’ll find out that we are the original!—–

whahahahaha.. first of all there is no “Chinese” only Mandarin or “so called Mandarin dialekts”. you as chinese should know it. i congrad you you just shot yourself into the foot.

——japanese adopted han characters not stole..———

sorry dude but;
japanese adopted han-dynasty writing system charcters. “Han” is an ethnic group inside of PRC.

aside that.. well, many girls have an “Arschgeweih” (tramp stamp. directly translated: “arse-antler”) today i saw 2 women whose “arse-antler” became “arsehole-antler”.(age+force of gravity do it work)

welcome to real world.

what do you mean there’s no such thing as Chinese? if Chinese as Han then yes
most of Japanese culture are learned off from Tang dynasty

As a genreal rule, the more someone talks about their tats, the less likely they have anything interesting to say.

I don’t really hate people who get tats, I just hate people who talk about them with every damned person they meet.

天不怕，地不怕，只怕廣東人說普通話！
天唔驚，地唔驚，只驚北方人講廣東話唔正！

I bet you look GREAT with your t-shirts!!!!!

Anyway, with those revolting “simplified” characters, Japanese (or Taiwanese, though they tend to the overly fancy) ones simply look better these days.

“So does Beckham’s tattoo mean anything?”

I will give serious props to any Westerner here (and decent props to any Japanese for that matter) who can actually read Beckham’s tattoo, which is written in classical grass script and that is not easy to read. The only ones I can make out without my dictionary of 崩し字　are 生、命、富, though admittedly it’s been a fair while since I read much Edo-period writing.
It is apparently read
生死有命 富貴在天, which is Chinese and means ‘Death and life have determined appointments, Riches and honors depends upon heaven.’It is a quote from the Analects of Confucius. So probably well known to an educated Chinese person, and possibly even to a well-educated Japanese person.

For all that I was told about how tattoos are frowned upon, I get nothing but compliments on mine, and questions about whether it’s sakura or ume no hana, since the blossoms are a bit darker in color.

I had to cover it when I worked a brief stint at an English school, but otherwise I keep it right out in the open without a problem!

sorry for the inconvenience,
