Most of the time the common reaction to a geek tattoo is “wow!”. But every now and then there’s one that makes you say “awwww…” instead. The owner of this tattoo, JR, and his wife are huge geeks. She’s a hardcore NES player and still loves the old school 8-bit and 16-bit console games. She mentioned to JR (before they were even dating!) that she wanted to get an 8-bit heart tattooed on her. JR, being the fool that only love can make you, stole the idea and got it done over his lunch break one day. Rightfully so, the missus was not too pleased, but eventually forgave him and now they’re married. And someday JR says he’ll tell his kid that he stole their mother’s heart and he wears it on his sleeve.
About Geeky Tattoos
Geeky Tattoos is a collection of geeky tattoos that we’ve found here and there. If you’ve got an exceptionally geeky tattoo, submit it to us at submit@geekytattoos.com with a little bit of explanation (or just the picture if you want).
The site is run almost entirely by Ed Hunsinger (aka @edrabbit), a body modification enthusiast and web geek out of San Francisco.
