Welcome To The Gun Laser Show: Girl Shows Off Her 'Pew Pew' Tattoos
This is a photo taken by Flickr user Meow Cely of a girl with 'pew pew' tattooed across her fingers. I must admit, I admire her dedication to the pews. You don't see me rocking any pew-y ink (except in THIS post), and I'm one of the the laser blaster's biggest proponents. Funny story: I went to a gun and knife show a few weeks ago and demanded my entrance fee be returned when I found out there weren't any laser guns. Also, I accidentally cut myself with a bowie knife and tried to play it off like I'd been stabbed.

Nov 10 2009 I'd Demand A Discount: Shoryuken Fail
This is a picture of some poor bastard's Street Fighter tattoo that's supposed to depict the directions for performing Ryu's Shoryuken (Rising Dragon Fist). Only thing is, the correct directions are →↓↘ + P, and not ↓→↘ + P. So yeah, that's a whole lot of black ink gone wrong. Although you've got to admit, even if it were correct, that tattoo would still suck compared to my 'Charge ↓ 2 sec, ↑ + K'. I also have some tribal shit on my arms BECAUSE I AM PART OF A TRIBE. Called Quest. Can I kick it? Yes I can!

Thanks to Jimmy, who has the characters for General Tso's and Moo Goo Gai Pan on his upper back.
Oct 19 2009 Stop Laughing, Dog: Duck Hunt Tramp Stamp
This is Crystal. Crystal doesn't get much sun and has a Duck Hunt tramp stamp. Anybody else get the shivers when they see that dog? God, I hated it when he would laugh at me. Now I'm not saying I want to shoot him with my lightgun, but I would stab this chick and steal one of her kidneys. And by one I mean both. I have a drug addiction.

Thanks to Alan, who was considering a Contra tramp stamp but then bailed at the last minute and got Metroid instead. I think it was the right decision.
Oct 8 2009 Raptor Jesus Went Extinct For Your Sins
First of all, we're not going there. I just thought this would be a good time to open up a discussion about what sort of dinosaur mount you think Jesus will ride into battle against the robots. My guess is a supersweet t-rex/raptor hybrid God made just for him. That can fly. Oooh -- and breath fire. Okay, basically a dragon. Puuuuuuuff!

Aug 19 2009 Awh: A Sentimental Super Nintendo Tattoo
I would never think to associate video game tattoos with sentimental memories, but apparently it happens.
My Super Nintendo controller tattoo. It says "Mom Mom" because I got it in memory of my grandmother who died 06/08/04. I grew up playing Super Nintendo with her. It's real patchy & I need to get it touched up because that grey color is a b, but it means a lot to me.
That's cute. Now I don't feel so bad about getting a tattoo of my first dog with a Game Boy for a head. *sniff* Miss you, Tetris face.

Thanks to Jonah Ray, who got a tattoo of Garfield humping a Dreamcast because it means something to him.
Jul 30 2009 Blocky Love: A Tetris Heart Tattoo
A Tetris heart tattoo, I love it. I can't really tell what part of the body it's on, but I'm gonna go ahead and pretend it's not the taint. Because that would be a big one.
Hit the jump for several more Tetris tattoo, including another heart.
Jul 10 2009 Death Star Of Hearts: Star Wars Tattoo Chick
Fail? She's all win in my book. Between Boba Fett and the heart-shaped Death Star, I would do all sorts of things to this woman. Namely: try to introduce myself, get choked up, point my finger at her yelling "pew pew pew!", and then sob into my Star Wars beach towel.
Thanks to Johnny Freightliner, who may or may not be hauling pirated goods.
Jul 7 2009 Dude, You Should Totally Get A Bacon Tattoo!
I think it's safe to say we would all eat that, but I would go the extra mile and lick the pit. Happy lunching!

Thanks, son, now go to your room. Mommy and daddy are going to wrestle.
Jun 2 2009 For 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.
May 27 2009 Physics Equation Tattoos Are So In Right Now
This guy got the Born Oppenheimer Approximation, 3-D Schrödinger Equation and Schrödinger Equation's solution permanently inked on his back. Well, what do you think? Because I'd hit that like a Higgs boson. MEOW! Uh-oh, Schrödinger's Cat -- it's out of the bag!
Does this Physics Tattoo Make this Man the Biggest Nerd on Earth or Hottest Geek Alive? [gizmodo]
Thanks to Sarah, who said she'd do him like a school marm. I don't even know what that means, Sarah, but I think I want in.
May 19 2009 The Future Of Time Is Now: E-Ink Watches
These e-ink timepieces were created by Phosphor Watches and feature patented e-ink technology. What is e-ink? THE INK THAT SITS IN FRONT OF F-INK DURING ROLL CALL!
The principal components of electronic ink are millions of tiny microcapsules, about the diameter of a human hair. In one incarnation, each microcapsule contains positively charged white particles and negatively charged black particles suspended in a clear fluid. When a negative electric field is applied, the white particles move to the top of the microcapsule where they become visible to the user. At the same time, an opposite electric field pulls the black particles to the bottom of the microcapsules where they are hidden. By reversing this process, the black particles appear at the top of the capsule, which now makes the surface appear dark at that spot.
BA-DOOOOOOSH, ELECTRONIC TECHNOLOGY ON YOUR WRIST! The watches come in three different styles and range in price from $175-$225 depending on the model and wristband you choose. Personally, I want mine on a slap bracelet. You know what they say: you can take the boy out of the early 90's, but you can't take the dinosaur out of the boy. Seriously, we're totally stuck together. Got any butter handy? No? BBQ sauce?
Thanks to ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff, whose e ink watch broke and ruined his shirt. Faulty manufacturing, I smell class action!
May 4 2009 Tattooed Barbie: You're No Daughter Of Mine!
Mattel's new 'Totally Stylin' Barbie doll comes with a bunch of sticker tattoos you can apply all over her forehead and neck to make her look way more totally stylin'. Make her a little R2-D2 backpack and that is one fine piece of plastic ass (note to self: verify Barbie's age before using this). Plus, the doll comes with a fake tattoo gun and ink tattoos so your daughters (and sons) can apply tattoos to themselves! Shockingly, some parents aren't cool with the idea.
Barbie-maker Mattel has said the tattooed Barbie provides a way for kids to "be creative" with the doll. Some parents, naturally, see it differently, suggesting that a "Totally Pierced Barbie" or a "Divorce Barbie" could come next.
As for the tattooed Barbie, Mattel says it's selling better than expected and there are no plans to pull it from the product lineup.
Personally, I don't care, but that may just be because I don't have any daughters. No, I'm the proud father of three very handsome boys (woman always on top). Just kidding. But now that you know how they're made, ladies?

Apr 21 2009 Not As Cool As Geekologie, But Nakeder
Geckology. Not exactly Geekologie, but hey, there's some side-boob action so I'll take it. And for those of you who care, this particular specimen happens to be a Tokay gecko (Gekko gecko), the second largest of the gecko species. He is NOT to be confused with that little wanker from the Geico commercials, who is obviously some form of day gecko. Just sayin', I used to study herpetology. Now, which one of you is brave enough to hold my pocket snake? He doesn't bite, but I may have lined my pocket with Super Glue.

Apr 17 2009 A Whole Bunch Of Inky Sadness: LOLTATZ
LOLTATZ is like LOLCATZ but instead of cute animals there's a bunch of questionable tattoos. Obviously some people don't recognize a Metroid when they see one, but that's okay. I posted a bunch of my favorites after the jump, which you should definitely look at because most of them are hard to fathom. Like the fact that we've been to the moon. THE FREAKING MOON, MAN. That shit looks so small at night. You know what I mean -- like when you think about the universe and how tiny man is but how big we are compared to mice. What? I'm not stoned, you're stoned. Ice cream sandwiches. Jinx!
Hit the jump for a bunch more and a link to the website.
Apr 15 2009 I Feel Funny: Best Dinosaur Tattoo EVER
Well earlier this week we saw the best dinosaur costume ever, and now, the best tattoo. I really love the realism. And by realism I mean how the guy is obviously sitting on one of the dinosaur's spines -- because that's how I ride.
This Is A Very Good Tattoo [holytaco]
Thanks to Chase is First, who, technically, has you all beat.
Feb 16 2009 Vader Kills George Lucas In Brutal Tattoo
A Gizmodo reader by the name of Kevin sent them this picture of his pasty arm.
I got this tattoo about 8 months ago. I believe it perfectly sums up my feelings towards George [Lucas]. I love Star Wars, but I wish George would retire and leave the series in better hands. Just thought you should see it.
Oh snap -- you just got your head Force-choked off, George! Also, nice codpiece, Darth, I like your style.
Now hit the jump to see a real man's tattoo (mine).

Nov 27 2008 Guy Gets Stephen Hawking Tattoo
"Science fan" Jack Newton got Stephen Hawking's likeness tattooed on his leg in tribute to the world famous physicist (who is 66 and still rollin').
The tattoo - complete with a Monty Python line from the classic Life of Brian film 'He's not the messiah. He's a very naughty boy' written underneath it - has already won two trophies at tattoo conventions.
Mr Newton said: "I read A Brief History of Time, but to be honest I didn't understand a word, but I respect the man and that's why I got his face tattooed on my leg.
Good looking, Jack, but check this tat out -- BADOW! -- Carl F***ing Sagan bitch!

Sep 9 2008 New Esquire Magazine With E-Ink Cover
Did you pick up a copy of the 75th anniversary Esquire magazine yesterday to keep abreast of men's fashion? No? Well how about for the "first e-ink cover in history"? No? Well don't fret, because this is a video of the thing. As you can see, it's a magazine with a little e-ink panel. So what does this mean for magazines of the future? They're gonna consume more power.
