#13Wow. That wins for world's dorkiest tattoo. Dorkier than the golden ratio. Dorkier than e^{i\pi} \eq -1, and maybe dorkier than using latex notation in a web forum :)
+1 for the use of LaTeX notation.
$e^{i\pi}=-1$

Re: The man with the Y Combinator tattoo
#15I'm thinking about getting a tattoo. The goal is to get something that is aesthetically pleasing in an abstract sense, to avoid thinking something is ugly years later. I was thinking about the great wave, a dragon, a dragon fly or something else made up of PCB layout lines.

Maxwell can get invalidated. Math can't.
Granted it's been a while, but one can never be too careful.

Ahem. Russell paradox. Granted it's been a while, but one can never be too careful.
Witness the evolution of 'V-E+F=2' since Euler's time:

Is it right? Is it wrong? What does it mean to even BE a 'face' ?
Although I guess the worst thing that could happen in this situation is you change your explanation of the tattoo, and not the tattoo itself.
