Carl Zimmer’s collection of science tattoo photos (reported previously on Neatorama) is growing. There are now 119 submitted tattoos! This eight inch forearm ruler from Mikey is so handy, he uses it every day. Link

    Some clever ideas, too bad so many of them were done by WalMart quality ink slingers.

    The dork with the ruler tattoo has to live with a messed up “2″ - hopefully he got a nice discount.

    The SI system rules! Everyone still using something else is bound to get deselected by evolution…

    One has to wonder what other body parts the guy is constantly measuring.

    What’s he doing with his right arm that needs measuring daily?

    Can’t wait ’til his skin is saggy or wrinkley.

    He should’ve done that on his PALM, so he can see how small his penis is.

    The real tragedy is that the ruler is not accurate. It appears that the distance from 0 to 1 is larger than any other 1 inch measurement. The greatest difference is between 0 to 1 and 7 to 8! What’s up with that?!? What does he have to measure with a shrinking ruler?!?

    some of the other ones are really really cool concepts, and if I could find a competent person to do it I’d definitely do the same, geeky as it may be :P

    unfortunately, a lot of them really weren’t done by competent people, but hey, their choice to go there!

    Just a note, that ruler tattoo isn’t exactly used to measure lengths of ribbon to wrap your christmas gift, it’s the sort of tattoo normally worn by homosexuals to show their interest in anal fisting, as the markings allow them to easily measure how many inches of fist and forearm they can shove up another homosexual’s rectum.
