Geeky Tattoos?

One of my goal rewards is to get a tattoo. I'm aiming for the white lotus from the white lotus tile in Avatar: The Last Airbender. The next will be the ports on the back of my neck from Ghost in the Shell.

Does anyone have/want geeky tattoos?

    I was casually thinking of getting a really big back tattoo (but I doubt that I will). It would be of a giant Bowser with Princess Peach in one hand, Mario in the other. Mario's head would be missing, his hat would be impaled on one of Bowser's teeth and there would be blood all around Bowser's mouth. Yoshi would be perched on Bowser's shoulder looking sinister.

    As far as my geeky tats, I have Yoda, the symbol for the rebel alliance and Lisa Simpson.

    My geeky tattoo is a Horde symbol on my inner right ankle.

    This was right after I had it done:

    I've got a Hello Kitty as Jason from Friday the 13th, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes tomato, a pin-up style girl wearing a NES system as a bikini, and a shotgun with "boomstick" in the banner.

    I'm thinking I might get a Moogle wearing a Jason mask this weekend for my buddies Friday the 13th Event. I have a few more I want to get such as a graywash punisher skull, the Hello my name is... Inigo Montaya sticker on my chest, and something star wars related.

    Yeah, I'm a tattooed geek...

    I have the Rebel Alliance symbol on one side of my ankle and the Imperial Logo on the other side. I want to get this leg completely Star Wars though. I would like to get a Dr. Who and Firefly tattoo too, but not sure what. I am focusing on what to do with Star Wars right now.

    I have Serenity on my left shoulder and a (classic) Dr. Who tattoo on my right thigh. The rest of my tatts are non-geek related.

    I have a quote from Jane Austen's Presuasion on my wrist, which is kind of lit-geek. In 20 pounds, I'm getting one from Alice in Wonderland on my foot.

    I'm debating over a pin-up girl, but I don't know exactly what, or where...is that geeky?

    thanks, those are sweet. You could start using your other tattoo ideas as rewards for hitting some of your fitness goals.

    I've never felt comfortable enough in my skin to get any tattoos, but getting one as a reward for hitting a goal is a great idea! Perhaps I'll get a Starfleet insignia like my husband's...or maybe something Firefly- or Buffy-related. :smile:

    That's my wife's tattoo.
    Above the BorgCube, the blue circle is Neptune. She's got the whole solar system tattooed on her, starting from the sun on her right wrist all the way to pluto on her left. Jupiter and Saturn are on her shoulderblades.

    I have some stylized Hebrew on my back, knowing what a huge hardcore nerd I am I've been asked on more then one occasion if it's in Klingon.

    I got it when I turned 41 in celebration. My father died at 40 and I always kind of figured I would also. I used to make the joke that I would get a new tattoo every year that says 'Player One - (Picture of some 8 bit arcade game symbol. starting with space invaders and working my way forward in gaming history for each year).

    Mine isn't geeky. I have a Tatsu, which is a three toed dragon. Guardian of women. Along side it is a blue lotus with yellow tips.

    Can you post pictures of your Jason tatoo?? I'd love to send them to my friend Dan who worked on the book Crystal Lake Memories. Please Please Please?

    Oops. Never mind. Guess I should have scrolled through the whole thread before I got all excited. THANK YOU!!

    I have the lower case lambda symbol on my wrist. It stands for the decay constant of a radionuclide, and the light of knowledge shining into the darkness of ignorance.
  • LOVE these ideas! My current tattoo is non-geeky, but I'm seriously contemplating a TARDIS... :)

    None of my tattos are really geeky (I did just get a French lady with a ship in her hair..and her hair turns into The Kraken) but I've always wanted a Harry Potter tattoo... May get that one after I finish my backpiece..

    I would ONLY get a geeky tattoo. I like the idea of getting one, but I don't like the permanence. I change my mind too much.

    Sometimes I draw geeky stuff with markers on my ankles and stuff, but that's about it right now.

    I'm in love with the art of Yosh1taka Amano (Vampire Hunter D, Final Fantasy, Sandman: Dreamhunters, etc). I have a half sleeve based on his painting titled "Sakura Hime" and I'm in the midst of working on a full sleeve of a naga based on two more of his paintings (one being a dragon from FF). I had a total nerdgasm when Neil Gaiman complimented the first one after he recognized it as Amano's work.

    Edit: Oh the poor man's name was filtered!
