| ML7Mike User Info... | Bwhahahah!! Serves em right! http://www.soufoaklin.com/tattooartist.html -- Pitt junior Brandon Smith wanted a tattoo that proclaimed his manliness, so he decided to get the Chinese characters for �strength� and �honor� on his chest. After 20 minutes under the needle of local tattoo artist Andy Sakai, he emerged with the symbol for �small penis� embedded in his flesh. �I had it for months before I knew what it really meant,� Smith said. �Then I went jogging through the Carnegie Mellon campus and a group of Asian kids started laughing and calling me �Shorty.� That�s when I knew something was up.� Sakai, an award-winning tattoo artist, was tired of seeing sacred Japanese words, symbols of his heritage, inked on random white people. So he used their blissful ignorance to make an everlasting statement. Any time acustomer came to Sakai�s home studio wanting Japanese tattooed on them, he modified it into a profane word or phrase. �All these preppy sorority girls and suburban rich boys think they�re so cool �cause they have a tattoo with Japanese characters. But it doesn�t mean shit to them!� Sakai said. �The dumbasses don�t even realize that I�ve written �slut� or �pervert� on their skin!� In the last month, seven people unknowingly received explicit tattoos from the disgruntled artist. Kerri Baker, a Carlow College freshman, paid $50 to have the symbols for �beautiful goddess� etched above her belly button, but when she went into Szechuan Express Asian Noodle Shop sporting a bare midriff, the giggling employees explained to her that the tattoo really said, �Insert General Tso�s Chicken Here!� �I don�t even like General Tso�s!� Baker sobbed. �I�m a vegetarian!� Sakai doesn�t feel guilty about using hapless college students as canvases for his graffiti. �I think I�m helping my fellow man by labeling all the stupid people in the world,� he explained. �It�s not a crime, it�s a public service. - Thu, 11 Mar 2004 7:05pm | ||

| Shaggy User Info... | Umm you do realise there's not a shred of truth to any of this right? Can't remember what 'humor' site this originated on, but has become one of the new urban legends. This type of story has been going around the net for like 2-3 yrs now. - Sun, 14 Mar 2004 1:20pm | ||
| Masturbating The War God User Info... | That may be true, but I think it raises a good point. And who's to say that it's not happened before. - Sun, 14 Mar 2004 1:53pm | ||
| Shaggy User Info... | Think logically from not only a employer perspective but also from an employee perspective. Considering the ammount of japanese population in N America, attempting something as asinine as this would be completely suicidal. Businesses would be sued, employees fired and in a worst case scenario beaten within an inch of their life. Considering most tatoo artists are just that, artists, they'd be blacklisted from ever working again, which pretty much ends a career they love. Sorry, nobody that loves their art that much would be stupid enough to pull something like that. - Sun, 14 Mar 2004 2:57pm | ||
| Bryn User Info... | This is an often repeated urban legend, but many tattoo artists I have talked to will tell stories about experiences they have had with people coming to get tattoos of lettering they have no idea what it actually says. Alternately, how often have you been tempted to fuck with that one totally obnoxious asshole customer at your work. And what would you do if you had the oppurtunity handed to you on a platter? - Mon, 15 Mar 2004 3:42pm | ||
| Colin Sick User Info... | My Dad really likes tattoos and I read an artile with the singer of sepultura discusing his tattoos and he mentioned having gotten a bunch of Japanesse ones and being pissed off when he found out what they really meant. On another similar topic does anyone here speak korean ? - Mon, 15 Mar 2004 5:38pm | ||
