Hello everyone,

Well, you may or may not be a jerk, but there are plenty of perfectly nice people who get stupid Chinese tattoos, so that fact alone is not a final judgement of your character.

 

Your tattoo says 露万家族 lù wàn jiāzú.

家族 means 'family, clan'. I don't know what to make of 露万. 露 means 'dew' or 'to show, to reveal' (and is also my name), 万 means 'ten thousand'. Does your surname sound like 'Luwan', by any chance?

 

The calligraphy is not bad at all. I find the 万 a bit ugly, but that might just be my taste. The characters are clearly not tattooed by a native speaker, but still came out quite well.
