Rob Dyrdek Monster Tattoo


Rob Dyrdek's Full Back “Monster” Tattoo

Computer Tattoo


Once the domain of sailors and bikers, tattoos have become the latest celebrity must-have.

But it's not only the 'beautiful people' succumbing to the charms of a little ink. 'Geeks' worldwide are now making their own mark in the world of tattoo chic.Forget Celtic bands and Chinese symbols, for these guys it's all Pi and binary code.

Computer boffins and science fanatics are increasingly becoming emblazoned with Apple trademarks and scientific language. 

USB computer cables, the Pi equation and a symbol for the now-ancient Commodore 64 have all made appearances in the world of 'geek' tattoos.

As one tattooed computer expert told the Telegraph: "I got a tattoo last year to celebrate my company's launch of a new piece of software.

"I plan on building my software tattoo collection in the future, and then having a more recognisable 'geek' ink."

And in true geek fashion, another explained: "I am a geek and I like tattoos.

"Put them together and you get geek tattoos. I have wasted countless hours on the internet looking for the funniest geek tattoos."

And we suspect thousands of others are just about to join you.

World's First Eyeball Tattoo - Ouch!


Toronto man has been the first to get an eyeball tattoo. Basically, he has turned the whites of his eyes blue.
Corneal tattooing is usually used for patients that have had trauma to their eye, not for this, which is called body modification.

It took 40 injections of blue ink in order to complete this procedure. Pigment was injected under the top layer of the eye using a syringe. The syringe injected the ink into the eye. At first they had tried a traditional needle with ink on it, but when the ink didn't hold, they switched to the syringe.
The man has reported that all is well so far, but it feels like he has something in his eye.


I can barely stand needles poking me anywhere, but in the eye? I can't even imagine. I wonder what would happen if you decided to change your mind after it was done?
Who here wants to get the world's next eyeball tattoo? Maybe a colorful rainbow would work nicely.
If you feel that this may be a bit extreme, you can always take the easy and painless way out and just put on one of these super weird contact lenses instead.
