I went and had one of my own geek tattoos done last week, but I'm not convinced it's worth the level of explanation it's necessitated. Or the fact that people keep asking me if it says 'BOS'. http://www.flickr.com/photos/scarlettsusi/2404535959/ I love this tattoo!

I still can't understand why people don't remember the golden rule of tattoos: "What maybe cool now will be lame in the future." ex: Tribal tattoo's? Cool at first then turned lame. ex: Chinese, Japanese, or any other Asian language that you thought meant "Faith, Fire, Hero, Courage etc"? Cool now lame. I could go on. The only tattoo I know won't go out is the idea of tattooing your kids names on yourself. That I've seen on people alot. Hmm.

I think the tattoo was *done* quite well, the lines look very sharp and the letters stay decently in line (its tricky across your neck since its not flat). Now, if I would add that one to my body...I don't think so. What's he to do 20 years from now when HTML is just an archaic language, it would be like someone walking around with a COBOL tattoo. “I feel for this guy, that looks like a horrible tattoo.”
