Another failed kanji / hanzi tattoo

Yesterday I found this image on tattooingtattoodesigns dot com. This tattoo can be found in the section called "asian tattoo design", but, if you ask me, it should be placed in a category called "Failed tattoos" or "misspelled tattoos", or something of this kind. First, the translation of the ideograms is completely wrong: it's not "I am a goddess" (as the person who posted the photo thinks), it's just the word "goddess" awfully written. The word 女神 (pronunciations: nǚshén in Chinese, joshin or megami in Japanese) is composed by these two ideograms: This ideogram means "woman", "female" This ideogram means "gods", "soul" or "mind". The ideogram is composed by two parts which MUST always be written together, not split in two, as the tattooer did in this case.

Unless you're getting a temporary tattoo, it's important to double check - even triple check - things like spelling and translations. These guys, apparently, didn't know this rule :) Now, let's start the show: This dude things he's "too cool for scool" . Well, let's say he's too stupid for school: This tough young fellow seems to know what he wants from life. Ok, dude, you've made your point: we'll let God to "Juge you" and we'll just laugh at you. It's summser timme. It's timme to have somme fun ... or maybe it's time to learn how to spell "summer": s-u-m-m-e-r - as you can see, it's not a difficult word. This year, forget about Puerto Rico. Let's visit "Puerto Rirco" , the new attraction of South America: "Swet pee?" I can't argue with her, I've never tasted pee :)
