Haha I love that diagram.

I have wanted a tatoo for some time, but have never been able to decide on something that would have meaning, not look stupid, and that I wouldn't end up regreting later in life.

However, I still think some people get plenty of goofy tattoos on some goofy places. Like, I knew a guy who had 3 tattoos on his neck!!!! One was his mom's initials, one was his dad's initials and the other was the Chinese symbol for "water" because he likes swimming!!!! Talk about an eyesore for employers.

The fact that employers are gradually relaxing former restrictions on visible tattoos so long as the designs are tasteful and as long as you're completely qualified for the job at hand aside, have you ever checked out Hanzi Smatter? It's a blog that pretty much started with the dude translating random hanzi/kanji tattoos and then taking on the occasional 'hanzi in the media/as portrayed in the Western world' topic regarding TV shows and magazines and stuff displaying random Chinese characters. Some of the earlier posts in there are an absolute hoot, and it's all the more reason to be very, very careful about putting things in a foreign language on your body, lol. You'd probably get a kick out of it. :3
