I think that inking yourself is a pretty deep showing for something you love or are really interested in, and I was wondering if any of you guys out there had gone the distance for something that you might consider a bit on the nerd side. Maybe something videogame or cartoon based.

I personally have a 1up mushroom on my left inner forearm. I like to think that when I die, the tattoo will vanish from my arm, and I'll restart my life at the beginning of the level. Eventually I'd like to get a whole sleeve of different video game icons, like the Tri-Force, some cherries, a red potion, things like that.

If anybody else out there has a cool or geeky tattoo they'd like to share, I'd love to hear it. If you've got a picture, feel free to share it in spoiler form. Take it away, folks!

A lady friend of mine has the majority of her back done with the Alice in Wonderland characters done in the art styling of the American Magee video game.

I remember a while ago some guy got the ZP icon on his arm...

Myself? I would get the Deadpool icon symbol on my backside.

I know a guy who has the name of thse guys from "Bleach" (Yamakashi... Shinobi...? sth like
that :D) on his back.

Personally I would never do a geek tatoo (even though I plan to have most of my body tatooed some day), it's just... ehh nvm.
I can understand why alot of people would be hesitant getting a geek tattoo, but for me gaming and such was a huge part of my childhood and development, and something very near and dear to me. The idea of celebrating it as an everlasting memory in ink just has some appeal to me.

I used to work with a fella he had Yoda's portrait on his bicep, the rebel alliance symbol on his other bicep and (allegedly) an X-Wing on his shoulder.


I also used to date a chick who had the Imperial logo as a tramp stamp. (After a quick internet search this is more popular than you'd think)

Perhaps the geekiest tattoo would be tattooing a D-pad over your right nipple and an A button over your left.

Thats not even a good tattoo... looks like it was drawn by a 8 year old. An 8 year old whos below the average skill level of drawing at that.

I'd never actually get a tattoo, but if a gun were held to my head, I'd get a pink heart inside of a grey square- not specifically a WCC, but a homage to it.

I know someone who had the 6 lines of the Old Code tatooed on his back and the symbol of the round table beneath it.
actually if I ever got a tatoo, that is what it would be
A knight is sworn to valor
His heart knows only virtue
His blade defends the helpless
His might upholds the weak
His word speaks only truth
His wrath undoes the wicked

An orange portal on one arm and a blue one on the other, with a stick man stepping through.

I would probably get a tattoo of an ADFX-01 [http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/acecombat/images/2/22/MorganTLS.jpg] from AceCombat on my chest, that would be awesome!

Although I am planing on getting a tattoo of flames going up from my wrist half-way up my upper arm, that's going to be cool.

Another picture of the ADFX-01 [http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/acecombat/images/9/90/Morgan_normal.jpg]
...and another [http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/acecombat/images/9/92/Morganspblk.jpg]
...and one more [http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/acecombat/images/e/ef/Morganflyby.jpg]
