Nerds  clearly have obsessive tendencies when it comes to the fandom we adore. We cosplay, buy the gear, import the authentic, and aren’t afraid to ink up. Tattoos are serious–ask any artist who paints pictures with permanent ink on peoples’ bodies. I have a few tattoos but I dream of full sleeves, space ships and time machines and made up languages in fancy script. Everyone knows you can’t just ink once. My next tattoo must be a literary tattoo. I want a quote somewhere on my body but I can’t think of what or where or who yet. Don’t worry, I’ll know it when I see it. In the meantime, I’m gleaning some ideas from some of the geekiest tattoos on the web.
