I'm thinking about getting a tattoo. What's important to me is that it looks cool, and is in a script that I don't
understand. Please provide some suggestions. Translations are optional. Also, I'm thinking of putting it on my
forehead, but if you feel another location is more appropriate, please specify.

Get this: 这是一个伟大的纹身

It's Chinese for whatever you want it to mean. After all, no one will care.

(P.S. I agree, this is the best thread ever.)

They're all over the internet, but here's a page to get you started:
