Disgruntled Asian Tattoo Artist Inks His Revenge

Pitt junior Brandon Smith wanted a tattoo that proclaimed his manliness, so he decided to get the Chinese characters for ÒstrengthÓ and ÒhonorÓ on his chest. After 20 minutes under the needle of local tattoo artist Andy Sakai, he emerged with the symbol for Òsmall penisÓ embedded in his flesh.

I believe at least one of our friends has a kanji tatoo (i forget which), but I've never understood it. What drives white people to put asian characters on themselves? Gotta run, I'm going to get my name tattooed on my arm in Yiddish.

John, I believe when you find the answer you'll also find out why 'Kung Fu Fighting' was a hit when we were kids...

QTip 19 Jul 2003


I've been hating seeing non-Japanese or non-Asians gettting chinese or japanese character tattoos for years. It's so dumb. I would say that over 95% have no relationship to any asian culture and/or language. It would be one thing if they had ties to it by having lived in Japan or China or had extensively studied the language or had a loved one of Asian ethnicity. Those kids/people totally deserved what they got. I wish I could personally congratulate the artist. That's totally punk rock!! Buyer beware. If you're going to get a permanent ethching on your body, for god's sakes, put a little thought into what you're getting!!

He's at it again, read:

Incarcerated Asian tattoo artist still inking revenge behind bars

When local tattoo artist Andy Sakai was sentenced to five years in prison for inking profanities on hordes of hapless customers, many thought his days of body desecration were over.

They were wrong.

Sakai’s latest victims are, ironically, his fellow inmates.

Using a tattoo gun fashioned out of a sharpened paper clip, dental floss, and a ballpoint pen taped to a plastic Spork, the disgruntled prisoner has drawn Black Panther Party symbols on White Supremacists, written CRIPS 4 EVA on rival gang members, and left dozens of hardened criminals with butterflies, fairies, and unicorns permanently etched in their skin.

“I wanted a stack of skulls on my back,” said murderer Jimmy Drake, “and that Asian prick gave me a giant Winnie the Pooh!”

Many prisoners ask for spider webs on their elbows to signify time spent in jail. Sakai’s webs have hidden messages in them such as, “Fuck Cops,” “I Swallow,” and “Salad Tosser.” Sakai got the idea for the cryptic tats after reading Charlotte’s Web in the prison library. “That E.B. White’s a genius, man,” Sakai proclaimed.

For his own protection, Sakai has been moved to solitary confinement where he’ll serve the rest of his sentence.

“Prison isn’t so bad,” Sakai said. “It gives me time to sit and contemplate my next evil plan!”
