Tian runs a blog called “Hanzi Smatter” devoted to non-Asian people’s unwittingly incorrect use of Chinese characters in tattoos, t-shirts, and the like. He spotted this tattoo and said:
“[W]hen I first saw this… I was stunned and speechless. It literally means “crazy diarrhea” in both Chinese Hanzi and Japanese Kanji.”
He invited readers to contribute Photoshop remixes. The results include this Valentine’s Day chocolate wrapped with a message which would be very inappropriate, unless this is your kind of thing.
