Jun 2 2009For The Ladies: Reader's Sweet Zelda Tattoo

In a power move to impress Zelda tattoo girl (she's mine!), Geekologie Reader Erik got a badass Zelda tattoo of his own. Which, I think we can all agree, contrasts the flaming skull beautifully.
Thanks to Ronni and Erik, who know swinging a master sword and yelling is the way to any woman's heart.

Nice, a warriors mark
2. Party Kid 3000 (aka Hannukah Montana) - June 2, 2009 12:36 PM
I'm probably hotter than that dude.
Ladies?
Yes
3. naas - June 2, 2009 12:37 PM
@1 I thought that might be you, with the sword & all....
4. BK - June 2, 2009 12:43 PM
If his name is Erik..........why in the hell do his boxers say Jack? Or is that a Jack ass?
5. whistle - June 2, 2009 12:43 PM
I have pretty much given up on the idea that a tattoo will ever look cool to me. Even my own.
6. Party Kid 3000 (aka Hannukah Montana) - June 2, 2009 12:44 PM
@3
Nah. It couldn't be me, I'm pretty sure. Although I do remember getting a tattoo on my back a week ago.
Hmmmm... Nah. That's not me. No way.
7. naas (in for Daisy who is on vacation) - June 2, 2009 12:45 PM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell it's a fake because the shadows are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never BAck Down where Max & Baja discover pieces of rock with ancient writing on them, and decide to build a time machine. The machine looks like a giant stone ring and next to it there's a fuzzy pink doll in a wheelchair with a mohawk shouting orders at everyone. Baja doesn't like that Max is putting up with all the fuss and drags him though the gate.
They end up on some shitty planet with sand everywhere, no fast food & everyone sort of looks like early man
8. naas - June 2, 2009 12:46 PM
@6 dude, what's mine say?
9. Zee Brat - June 2, 2009 12:46 PM
He looks like Jude from Across The Universe.
10. GRAMMARNAZI - June 2, 2009 12:56 PM
tattoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
11. BK - June 2, 2009 1:02 PM
@9
He looks more like Ben Campbell from 21. But, the boxers are throwing me off. I'm thinking there's a real possibility that he's the boxer Jack Johnson.
12. FIRSTTARD - June 2, 2009 1:03 PM
FIRST!
13. Starly - June 2, 2009 1:06 PM
Female aproved!
14. Zee Brat - June 2, 2009 1:15 PM
@11 Same guy lol. Jim Sturgess.
15. ess - June 2, 2009 1:17 PM
I pray there is another flaming skull tattoo on the other shoulder. Symmetry is important.

simon belmont does not approve
19. proteon - June 2, 2009 1:45 PM
In ten years he'll be a big fat guy.
20. Roar - June 2, 2009 1:49 PM
I'd do him, and im a guy
21. Wombatish - June 2, 2009 1:53 PM
Mmmm, backne.
But still, nobody's perfect. The Zelda tattoo is nice, the other one, not so much.
22. GRAMMARNAZI - June 2, 2009 2:01 PM
I'm all for tattoos and stuff, but I just have a hard time looking at some dudes naked back for too long and saying, "That's nice!!!".
23. mushroom - June 2, 2009 2:08 PM
@7 finally naas. thank you for filling the big gaping hole left behind by damn vacationing Daisy.
also, i don't like his haircut from the back. okay tattoo though
24. Quik - June 2, 2009 2:11 PM
Looks like he's trying to cut the tattoo off with that sword.
25. Party Kid 3000 (aka Hannukah Montana) - June 2, 2009 2:13 PM
@22
You're not alone. We all share the same feeling, man. It just feels so uncomfortable.
Why, GW? Why? Why do you have to post this? Ah, my eyes!!!
To tell you honestly, my greatest fear in life is to turn gay. F'uck that! I ain't touching no dude's back for sh!t.
26. Kixie - June 2, 2009 2:24 PM
Hot! Who doesn't love geek guys? <3
27. GRAMMARNAZI - June 2, 2009 2:34 PM

The horror.............the .......horror.

29. Bartleby - June 2, 2009 2:46 PM
I'd do him, and im a girl
30. Davo - June 2, 2009 2:59 PM
should have kept his money...and some dignity
31. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - June 2, 2009 3:05 PM
I've got one of these on my dick. It's even the same size. Who wants to see it?
32. JFreezy - June 2, 2009 3:06 PM
@8,
SWEET! What does mine say?
33. Reverend Spud - June 2, 2009 3:15 PM
#26 The answer you're looking for is everyone.
PS your a geek guy therefore nice try.
34. McCracken - June 2, 2009 3:31 PM
I like it. =D
But he needs to clean his sword. Clean swords are good. dirty swords are bad.
35. Rhialto - June 2, 2009 3:32 PM
He should lose a little more fat by banging Zelda! After that it's perfect!
36. Quik - June 2, 2009 3:34 PM
Rick Springfield called.
He wants his haircut back.
37. Rossi - June 2, 2009 3:38 PM
Back isn't so bad, though it kind of looks like an out-of-place tramp stamp.
Arm, on the other hand, tells me that he probably writes shitty poetry and gets offended when anyone speaks ill of Hot Topic.
38. SiGee - June 2, 2009 3:47 PM
@25
Why such a homophobe?
Might be a sign you are headed that way.....
Get over IT!
39. GRAMMARNAZI - June 2, 2009 3:57 PM

lol you guys are merciless. i'm never posting my picture ;)
43. Jaded Icon - June 2, 2009 6:08 PM
Not a bad tat. It's not GRAMMARNAZI sexy, but it will do.
44. GRAMMARNAZI - June 2, 2009 6:52 PM
I'm too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my shirt
So sexy it hurts
45. gabz - June 2, 2009 8:02 PM
He is not bad looking.
Not bad at all.
From behind at least.
46. GRAMMARNAZI - June 2, 2009 8:15 PM
Think I'm gonna' be sick.
47. llama4114 - June 2, 2009 9:21 PM
Sweet why cant i meet guys like this guy? i went on a lunch date today wearing my tri-force t-shirt and asked me what tat symbol was. :(
48. Sky - June 2, 2009 9:25 PM
I'd definitely do him, tattoo or not.
49. GRAMMARNAZI - June 2, 2009 9:32 PM
ATTENTION ALL SHOPPERS!!!!
I THINK WE HAVE LOCATED THE OFFICIAL GEEKOLOGIE WHORE.
50. savannah - June 2, 2009 10:25 PM
i know a girl who has the same thing on her mound
like amid the hair
she whipped it out in the mall once
51. GRAMMARNAZI - June 2, 2009 11:04 PM
I'm sure she did that just cuz she wanted her family to feel proud of her.
52. walt - June 3, 2009 12:21 AM
C'est tres ghey.
53. Kidiu - June 3, 2009 12:57 AM
Nice.
I wish I could see his face! He looks cute from the side!
54. Kymiko - June 3, 2009 5:37 AM
Except for the skull tattoo, that guy is pretty cute :P
Why can't all you nerds look like that??!?!?
55. eat bean - June 3, 2009 7:46 AM
zelda=cool
female zelda tatoo= hit or miss
male zelda tatoo= failure of all time-
56. eat bean - June 3, 2009 7:49 AM
Also I put that guy to shame with my sex appeal.
It's the gods honest truth
57. Jaded Icon - June 3, 2009 8:06 AM
@ 54
Your right, we can't all look like this guy. Fortunately, GRAMMARNAZI is better looking. Unfortunately, he has no arms and must type with his feet.
FYI: Zelda fan, but not enough of one to get a tat of one.
58. Captain - June 3, 2009 8:41 AM

Excuse me!!! We, my good lady, are geeks. Not NERDS. There is a fundamental difference in that I am a geek and nerds are smarter than me. Ok?
60. $.02 and a pocket full of FAH-Q - June 3, 2009 9:27 AM
I agree with 59. Geeks still stand some chance of getting laid and having "normal" peolpe understand them in conversation. But, nerds are the bosses of geeks... stupid food chain.
Also, someone who's fear is to "turn gay" isn't a homophobe. Do you think a gay person who's afraid of "turning straight" is a heterophobe?
61. $.02 and a pocket full of FAH-Q - June 3, 2009 9:28 AM
Oh yeah, the picture - sweet tat! I was all for this pic until.... I saw the plastic hilt on the sword.... That killed a little of it for me.
62. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - June 3, 2009 10:44 AM
@60
If they're not a homophobe, can we call them by their proper name? Closet case!
63. Stengleronymous - June 3, 2009 10:50 AM
Folks, that arm tatoo's not just a "flaming skull." That's a Red Bubble.
http://www.zeldawiki.org/Red_Bubble#Red_Bubble
It's just as Zeldariffic as the back tattoo is.

Drink stirrer?
65. Lucy - June 3, 2009 11:10 AM

Hot Geek
66. Eddy - June 3, 2009 11:56 AM
If I had the appropriate anatomy, I would have a boner.
67. Erica - June 3, 2009 3:23 PM
Cute. He looks like he has a nice face.
68. GRAMMARNAZI - June 3, 2009 6:14 PM
He looks like he has several issues with reality.
69. Kymiko - June 4, 2009 4:17 AM
@59
What if a girl is a nerd? A HOT nerd? What would geeks do lol. Is there a difference between a geek girl and a nerd girl? If so, I'd love to find out which one I am....
70. Jaded Icon - June 4, 2009 9:13 AM
@ 69
Let me see if I can answer these questions for you.
1. We can still be friends
2. We can still be friends "with benefits"!
3. They would also try to be friends "with benefits"
4. Yes, a geek girl likes cosplay, manga (and/or anime), robots, lasers, star wars (and/ or star trek), dinosaurs and GW. Nerd girls like math and science. Both like computers and both would fall in love with me given half a chance (please give me half a chance!!)
5. If you would like to know which one you are please forward all your interests, hobbies and bathing suit pictures to GW and he will forward them on to me. Thanks.
71. Kymiko - June 4, 2009 9:52 PM
Now what would you do if I actually did that? Stalkers are weird....
And I think I'm a nerd. A HOT nerd.
72. Ronni - June 5, 2009 4:01 AM
Well for you geek girls out there, i just want to tell you he is single and searching for his "Zelda" :D
