I am not sure where this photo comes from but it shows two Chinese symbols as a tattoo on some-one's skin. The problem is that in Chinese it means "insane diarrhea."Now I know that there are many types of people with different lifestyles and philosophies. But I still do not understand how it feels cool for anyone to have a tattoo of Chinese symbols meaning insane diarrhea. WHY?
Or perhaps this is just a mistake. Or a mean joke. In either case, if you are to get a Chinese tattoo, please get it from professionals who can read and write Chinese. Simply etching the lines into your skin is not enough.

I was in a naval warship visiting Hong Kong and other ports around the Far East and, whether a genuine fact or just an apocryphal story, it was said that many tattoos obtained in Hong Kong by British and American naval personnel actually said 'Dirty British/American Pig/Sailor'....
