Wheres that Faux-propaganda image of the asian guy getting the english tattoo?

This is why I consulted a book on frickin tantric yoga written by a friggin tantric yogi when constructing my tattoo. What is with these dumb people getting tattoos with foreign languages without doing any research?

I mean seriously. It's not like it's difficult to go pick up a copy of the Gita and checking the sanskrit to make sure it's correct.

Hehe.

I'm sure it's been posted here loads but just in case anyone hasn't yet found the lulz, I recommend some hanzismatter enjoyment (link pops).

I got a huge tatoo on my chest that says "If you can read this you are too close" but when I looked in the mirror I saw it was back to front so I scrubbed it off with a potato peeler and now I'm sad and have a big wound where my chest should be

 
EyeballKid 2009-04-20 11:27:39 PM  
Yes, but her tattoo is correctly spelled Sanskrit for "Please call the police."

 
Rapmaster2000 2009-04-20 11:57:01 PM  
There's speculation that the script, etched on her hip by New York artist BangBang, is spelt WRONG.

I for one am shocked that a tattoo artist named BangBang is not proficieint in Sanskrit.

Those "Engrish" pics that are so funny to us?
Yeah, those Chinese character tattoos we love are just as funny to Chinese-speakers.

Ah ha ha

Cover to Max Planck Institute's flagship publication was not a Chinese poem, but was a flyer from one of Macau's brothels. (new window)

Tattoo or no Tattoo, I'd still hit it.

 
Mariann La Fleur 2009-04-21 03:06:25 AM  
Yeah, I wouldn't get something in another language tattooed on myself unless I spoke the language well enough to translate something into said language or whatever. Or if like, my grandmother (both my grammas are still alive) spoke the language and it was thusly important to me and she translated for me. I dunno, it seems like a lot of people just get tattoos to "look cool" and not for any inherent meaning to them. And those Chinese character tattoos are really silly unless you speak it.

 
FlashHarry [TotalFark] 2009-04-21 08:08:02 AM  
reminds me of the random english you see on t-shirts and backpacks in europe: "top football star!" or "best america super team!"

Angry Buddha 2009-04-21 08:50:18 AM  
Haha. I read the "I'd hit it" posts, but had completely forgotten the context 'til Marla chimed in.

It was like a pretty rainbow of happiness: 陰莖

ClintBartonWannabe 2009-04-21 10:08:38 AM  
Well, where is a picture of this tattoo? I'm sure at least one Farker can read Sanskrit.

Bullshat. Everyone knows girls can't make a proper fist.


I dunno- she's pretty foul.

 
FrancoFile 2009-04-21 12:16:14 PM  
Considdering how many tattoos in English are spelled eroneously, I'm not teribly surprised by this misteak.

 
SethX9 2009-04-21 12:26:26 PM  
And just what is the correct Sanskrit for "f'shizzle"?

 
stuhayes2010 [TotalFark] 2009-04-21 12:39:07 PM

Here's my tattoo:

/Yeah. That's right. I'm a rebel.
//The only way to rebel now is to not have one.

Damn... save the doodling for the back of your notebook and keep it off your body. Really bad idea even if spelled correctly.
