Maxwell's Equations Tattoo: Ideas & Designs

[Nothing000]

I am thinking about getting a tattoo of Maxwells Equations on my back.
I would want them to basically cover my back. I would have one in each "quadrant" of my back. What do you guys think?

Why not content yourself with a \pi on your willie?

 

[neurocomp2003]

why sotp there...go for the natural number e and the golden ratio...then draw the golden ratio...adn mmm pythatgorean theorem...or maybe some more geometry theorems

if you were going to get a mathematically tattooo...i wouldn't get maxeq'ns
Go for soem time of fractal. or just create the entire cribsheet on your back for first and 2nd year physics =]

 

[arildno]

Pythogorean theorem??
Does that involve the hytopenoose?

What do you guys think?

Don't do it. Not that I dislike tattoos (in fact I have a bunch of those myself) but when someone asks you the traditional "what do your tattoos mean"-question you're in for a long explanation.

I don't like tattoos, but this idea is so out of the ordinary that I prefer it to other tattoo ideas. The ultimate success or failure of the idea would depend on how it's composed visually, and the style and colors.

Start off by getting some pictures of your back, and then photoshop what you want onto them. Blow these up to poster size, hang them around your place. If you can still stand them after a few months, then take the original images and photoshop them into what you'll look like when you're middle aged and out of shape. If you can still stand these after a few months, then go for it.

Why not content yourself with your willie in a \pi ? That's nearly as good as the real thing - or so says the movie.

Actually, Gokey, that hurts a lot. (at least the warm apple version of it)

 

[Nothing000]

Screw it, I am getting E=mc^2 on the back of my neck. Where everyone can see it.

 

[Nothing000]

I am about to go to the tatoo parlor here is an hour or two, so suggestions would be appreciated.

 

[Nothing000]

I can do it now bcuasse I am preety damn drunk right new.

i think i want to get eulers formula on my lower back. I've wanted it a while now. i thought that or the golden ratio since i think they're both "pretty" ideas. but eulers looked nice written down.

 

[Nothing000]

I won't feel a damn thng!

In my opinon, women's arms should never be thick enough to write complete words across them, including extra space for centering.

I got "courage" in Japanese tattooed to my right bicep (I would include a picture if I had one).

But get this: It looks all "cool" and everything but when I flex my arm and look in the mirror, it looks like the square root of x (so in a way, I satisfy both the complete badass in me and the latent nerd inside)

Let me see if I can try to upload a picture.

 

[Sting]

Here, I've got a pic. See for yourself:

I got \pi tattooed on my ass (left side), let me see if I can upload a pic.

Penile tattoo, now that would hurt!

I agree.
Just imagine getting pricked so many times in such a sensitive place..

 

[___]

Yeah! Basically being pricked
In your prick,
would freak you up.

Well, I may be too late, but I'd recommend that you try the tatoo out before you get one. Try different ones out, and see what kind of reactions you get. Try different ones for a few days, including a party, a date, some participation sports, etc.

You do know how to try a tatoo out before you get it, right? Bet your uncle knows...

 

[gravenewworld]

what is this, attack of the super nerds? get a tattoo of maxwell's equations if you want to be laughed at your entire life. having the equations in your head should be good enough.

I had an ex's name tattoo'd on my penis. Her name was Wendy and I was aroused when it was applied so when I'm soft all you can see is the W and Y. One day I was in a public restroom and this big guy was standing next to me at the urinals. I looked over and he had a W Y on his penis too. I said oh, I see you have a girlfriend named Wendy too. He looked at me strangely and I showed him my tatto. I pulled it and said "See, Wendy" he laughed and said mine says "Welcome to Jamaica Mon, Have a Nice Day."

i've thought about getting euler's equation put somewhere not very obvious like my ankle. I'm not good enough at math though to justify doing something like that (yet).
