People can just put words together like this to sound cool but really… Sounds retarded. This reminds me of those people that get something in Chinese on a tattoo. It will translate to something like “water” or “spirit” or “serenity” or some bullshit they TELL you it means. But it is just stupid. Maddox had a rant on the subject. All Hail Maddox.

If you knew anything about good literature, you wouldn’t think this is someone just stringing words together, it’s from George Orwell’s amazing novel 1984. This is nothing like people getting something in Chinese as a tattoo…
Out of context, these are the dumbest oxymorons I’ve ever come across. Even dumber than the time my autistic brother said FIRE WET. HOT FIRE WET. AAAUUGH.
THIS IS the TRUTH

I was getting ready to say this is Orwellian. I applaud Merthsoft for enlightening everyone on a classic piece of literature.
1) Find me that maddox article, I don’t remember it.
2) Really, it’s not a lot of work to look up and memorize the character you want. Since most people get something lame like love or peace anyway, it’s not like you’re reaching into the obscure bin. And if you’re getting a tattoo, you should probably know what it looks like before hand anyway. Here’s a guide: 愛 (love) 平和 (peace) ã°ã‹ (idiot, for not looking up your tattoo before you get it) 陰茎 (male genitalia). See it, find the one you want, write it down, and show it to the tattoo artist. That simple. And water is even easier æ°´. You’ve got to be a real dumbshit if you can’t remember that one.
3) The 1984 stuff works a lot better in the context of the book, admittedly.

Nicely said, Caio.
