]]> <![CDATA[Dude With a Zune Tattoo]]> gosh that is pretty sickening.. and reading some of the posts in the forums was worse... people actually think this is cool? I was all for getting a zune .. but this weirdo kind of burnt a bad image into my mind. Anyway, the tattoo doesnt seem real. That is easy to photoshop

]]> <![CDATA[Dude With a Zune Tattoo]]> Let's all agree that a Microsoft or an Apple tattoo dedicated to them is just a bad idea. Please just put on a bumper sticker on the boot of your car and leave your skin alone from this type of atrocity to the eyes.

Also if this was to mock Apple fanboys well I think the joke was on him. In a very disturbing sort of way.

]]> <![CDATA[Dude With a Zune Tattoo]]> I think it's stupid to get tattoos of ANY corporate logo, but the colour shading is really nice. What I really can't stand is logo tattoos by incompetent artists who HAVE to put the black outline around everything even if it doesn't exist in the original... like a lot of the Mac tattoos on BMEzine.com. At least this guy had the sense to go to someone good.

Let's face it - he's going to be unique, and in 5 years no-one will remember what a Zune was so it'll be kind of retro cool.

You seem to know a lot about tattoos considering you can't spell it. Sorry, I probably wouldn't have flamed you if you weren't jumping on someone else, but hey, what goes around comes around!

It would have look cooler on the middle of his forehead...

But then he might've been defaced by some iPod Gang like a guy I heard about who had a swastika put into his forehead. Within two weeks he was jumped by some ex-Israeli militia kids, perhaps a touch intoxicated, who picked him up by the seat of his pants and sanded the swastika off, on the sidewalk.

]]> <![CDATA[Dude With a Zune Tattoo]]> It's just a stupid weirdo guy with a Zune tattoo.

Compare it to the Apple iCult tattoo, and shaved heads, and they're pretty much both weird, scary, and just stupid.

So if it's anything, this just represents one weirdo in the population. Not all Zune users.

]]> <![CDATA[Dude With a Zune Tattoo]]> As a Zune owner and ink lover, I'm embarassed for the both of us...

Even though music and tattoos usually lead to some fine works of art, music players and tattoos lead me to question what this guy was thinking. The ink work up close looks great, especially how the tattoo artist blended the colors, but 3 hours to do that? I don't know about any other inked Giz readers, but none of mine have taken more than 3 hours and they are all a lot larger and more detailed than that one.

Whatever, to each his own.

]]> <![CDATA[Dude With a Zune Tattoo]]> Can we examine dude's room for a second? Beware of the dog sign, multiple sketches I'm sure he thinks will definitely win a lady over one day, some sort of strange green headrest on his chair, and a scientific looking contraption along the right edge. Do you think he has plans to clone the woman on the poster on his door? Since she appears to be from the '90s, I suspect she will really dig his futuristic music machine called Zune. Maybe I just have too much time this morning, and a strange imagination...

dmeck

]]> <![CDATA[Dude With a Zune Tattoo]]> *sigh* some people just do things to do things. The guy was prolly like "Yeah...The Zune logo looks cool, and hey! I have a Zune! I'm gonna get a tattoo! sweet!"


There really is no reason to do something like this...lol But yeah, people...that tattoo most probably is real. It would not surprise me that someone did this. What surprises me is that someone hasn't done it sooner.

People can really do weird things...just look at the news one night and you'll see...

They've sold a million zunes, which is what they had aimed to sell by this time! I think they are doing much better than they ever thought they would and lets remember they only have one model on the market, give them time to release more to get more marketshare.

]]> <![CDATA[Dude With a Zune Tattoo]]> @ weatherman

You're absolutely right. I have two and both times I've had them done they've been irritated and more importantly swollen so you couldn't see the detail nor could it be this smooth. This is either a fake or a few weeks old. Maybe he got it to commemorate MS selling a million zunes and now he's sad cause he heard it hadn't actually happened yet....

Update: I went to the link, and it is swollen so it's probably just a few weeks old

]]> <![CDATA[Dude With a Zune Tattoo]]> I dont have a tattoo so correct me if I'm wrong, but would one really look like this if it were new? Wouldn't the skin around it at least be red and irritated? I think there's a high liklihood that either this guy put on a fake or someone just photochopped a zune tat on a funny picture. I'm actually going with the latter.
