The logo?

If you think that the Windows logo is the absolute worst Windows tattoo you can get, then you are seriously mistaken. It wouldn't even come close to the Microsoft blue screen of death example of body art in the image included in this article. But from the perspective of either a Windows hater or a dedicated fan, the BSOD tattoo is simply a prime example of a very, very bad idea that you are going to regret. The guy in the picture decided to keep his anonymity. Which is nothing short of a healthy course of action, compared with the ink he got. Well, I guess it is all a matter of perspective... It could be the best Windows tattoo ever, but I simply have no arguments for such an approach.

Apparently, this unique Windows 98 bluescreen tattoo is the work of Sam Rulz at Two Hands Tattoo in Auckland, New Zealand, according to Modblog. Now, to be honest, Microsoft's blue screen of death together with the adjacent cryptic messages have acted as a source of frustration and trauma for countless Windows users across the world. But from here to get it done in ink... And not even something subtle, to show your friends... The entire arm length, this is simply ridiculous.

And not to mention that it is from Windows 98. An operating system that is obsolete. And while you do have the option to upgrade Windows, updating a tattoo simply involves more pain. Some users might argue that migrating to Windows Vista was a similarly painful experience, but still, you can uninstall Vista, you can downgrade, you can turn the computer off, or put a few bullets in it if you want, but removing an arm's length of ink... This is of course one for the books... and an example of "what were you thinking!"
