Just about every geek knows about the chuckle-inducing web comic xkcd. If you don’t, set aside some hours to catch up to the rest of us. Then check out these xkcd inspired tattoos:
Unfortunately we don’t have a lot of info on this tattoo that comes to us via BMEzine (NSFW). All they have to say is: Tattoo by “The dude that lives in Thailand” at Wild Tattoo, somewhere in Sweden. The inspiration behind this one:
Inspired by this one:
This time it seems to be the other way around. An xkcd inspired by a tattoo! Oz got herself a tattoo of windmills from Mez. Why? She says “There’s no real deep meaning here. I just love the way they look, they are quite evocative. Creepy, alien-like, futuristic, powerful, I can’t help but stare. They freak me out a little bit but they always draw me in.” Cue creepy xkcd strip about the windmills coming to life:
UPDATE 2: Kitty Stryker also sent in a photo of her xkcd inspired tattoo. She went to Sacred Rose in Berkeley, CA to get the last frame of one of my personal favorites, Grownups.
I’m still on the hunt for more xkcd tattoos. It seems like something that would inspire more than two people to get it tattooed, right? So if you know anyone else with an xkcd tattoo, or the owners of the above ink, please send me an email: admin@geekytattoos.com.
