Creative Technological Body Tattoos

A new fashion seems to have arisen from the search for new and creative tattoos. Some people have begun to use the space in their bodies to portray their obsession or unconditional love for a brand or technology-related theme. From logos and programming language to keyboard symbols, there is a little bit of everything.

I have never truly understood the motivations for getting a tattoo. Something that will be engraved on your body forever, with no apparent practical purpose. Perhaps I should be looking at tattoos from a purely aesthetic point of view... Could that be it?

8 Most Bizarre Tattoo Art

To Do List Tattoo

As someone who has a wrist tattoo having something that you are going to see almost constantly every day it really has to be something important and personal. But just maybe this tattoo will keep it’s novelty and be cool to the person who has it. At least I really hope so.

Digit Tattoo

This tattoo is perhaps the most disturbing that I have ever seen and I’m not even sure why. I mean to make your arm look like a giant finger is undoubtedly creative, and if we’re being honest people are probably going to stare anyway, so why not give them something to really look at. But still I find this tattoo as creepy as it is creative.

six pack

I suppose if you know that you’re never going to get in shape then this might be a good idea seeing as it will be the closest thing you will ever get to a six pack. Though I think it also gives new meaning to the phrase “beer gut.” Sometimes you got to think about the reason people get tattoos because like other tattoos this is only funny the first time you see it.

I See You Tattoo

This is another unique tattoo that really I cannot understand why someone would get it. Sure I mean you do it once and it is kinda funny and it will definitely catch you off guard. But after that it gets old rather quick, so I think that the goal of this tattoo is to constantly keep meeting new people. Once again I think I can respect it but I think in the long run this could be a rather silly tattoo.

Cow Tattoo

Now there are a number of tattoos that utilize holes in the body in order to add another dimension to their tattoo. Many of the more disturbing and unique ones, use holes that well I was not comfortable sharing pictures of. Turning the belly button into an anus has become a… shall I say “popular” bizarre tattoo as I have seen it done with a few different animals. This is possibly the best of the worst but many of them I have seen with cats.

Alien Tattoo

This is a truly impressive tattoo and this would really make anyone double take when you walked by. This is a bizarre but really cool tattoo and unlike some of the others on this list I really don’t think there is too much to complain about. I would really like to hear the story behind this tattoo though and I would also like to see people’s first reactions when they see him walking by.

Breakfast Tattoo

Now you have to really love your eggs over easy with bacon and hashbrowns in order to get this tattoo. Bald heads are great places to get unique tattoos and I have seen plenty cool and unique ones. I will grant that this one is unique, but I really think that it is unique for a reason… Honestly I can’t understand the justification for a tattoo like this and I would really like to hear it.

zombie tattoo

This is a tattoo that I can respect because it takes a great deal of dedication (and apparently more than 24 hours and thousands of dollars) to turn yourself into a zombie. Now I personally do have a passion for something great enough to tattoo my entire body with it, so I think it is impressive that this guy does. But then again he might be a poster child for being overly obsessive about something…either way this is one really bizarre tattoo.

Australian Man Get Tattooed To Win Parents Free Europe Holiday

An Australian security guard wanted to do something special for his parents on their 40th wedding anniversary.

So Grant Burton, 30, decided he would love to give them a European holiday - but rather than just buying it for them, he wanted to get it for free.

The Melbourne man contacted Dutch-based travel group Eurail and offered to have the company logo tattooed on his back in return for the tickets.

In recognition of the two hours of agony Mr Burton put himself through, Eurail has awarded rail passes for him, his parents and a friend to travel across 21 European countries.

Mr Burton's father John, 78, a retired taxi driver who has never left Australia, and his mother Cheryl, 60, are now planning their once-in-a-lifetime 30-day visit this November.

The security guard said the pain and the £100 price-tag for the tattoo was 'worth it'.

Now he can't wait to show off his inking to staff at Eurail's head office in Utrecht, Holland.

'They promised me tickets if I got it done and they've been true to their word.

'Mum and dad have never been to Europe, dad has never even left Australia, and I wanted to do all I could to help them get there to help them celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary.

'They spent their lives raising me and my five siblings so it's time we gave something back.'

Mr Burton has been working double shifts to pay for the airline tickets and just needs to save a bit more for the trip.

He added: 'It took days to find a tattoo parlour in Melbourne that would do the job but I'm really happy with he result.

'I've got other tattoos, not as big as the Eurail, and I like it.

'Mum and dad aren't so keen though but they think it's all in a good cause.'

He hopes the Eurail tattoo will become a reminder of a special holiday.

A Eurail spokesman said: 'We have never seen such a fun and extreme example of fan dedication.

'We strongly feel it is very kind of Grant to make this gesture to his parents so we decided to throw in two other passes as well as those for Grant's parents.'

Tattoos Mistakenly Went Wrong

Bad tattoos, we see them everywhere. What possesses a person to get a bad tattoo? Is there a book somewhere of bad tattoo ideas?
Seems to me, there are simply too many tattoos that have gone wrong. Sure, tattoo removal can get rid of these, but tattoo removal is no laughing matter. It can be painful and quite expensive to have a tattoo removed.
Laser tattoo removal can cost close to $1000 per visit with many bad tattoos needing up to TEN sessions to have that really bad tattoo removed! And guess what else? There is no guarantee that laser tattoo removal will actually remove your bad tattoo - even if it is funny!
