    Obsolete Gadget Tattoos Are Seven Shades of Wrong

    Living in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, I've seen my share of intricate, beautiful, and veehee lickable tattoos. The vintage gadget kind are not them. Tumblred by Anna Jane Grossman—démodé-gadgeteer extraordinaire and author of the highly recommended Obsolete—these are a mistake:

    Vintage Gadget Tattoos

    I may have an original 1984 Macintosh on my work desk, but I will never ever get a tattoo of it. EVER. A ZX Spectrum, on the other side, is a very likely possibility. It just depends on the amount of Zacapa rum and Margaritas this weekend.

    Note to the VHS tattoo dude: If you are going to drill a video tape into your skin for the rest of your life, at least pick a Sony Beta. [Obsolete]
