What kind of man gets a Zune tattoo?

This kind of dude. You might say he's one in a million -- literally. Is it just us or does he already look really regretful about the decision he just made?

[Thanks, Nate]

I'd say the tattoo is easier on the eyes than the rest of him! I bet he gets more hot chicks with this tattoo!

In 20 years from now, that logo will be adopted by some nazi/commie/al-quaida organisation and this dude will be thrown in jail for being a supporter of that perhaps illegal organisation.

[Xanthus @ Jun 12th 2007 7:32AM]

NovaLand, too late.. it already has.

[Andrew Salazar @ Jun 12th 2007 10:00PM]

Even though I used to work for microsoft and I now work for a tattoo shop....I would never get a zune tattoo lol

wow... just wow.

[Andrei Vassiliev @ Jun 11th 2007 10:41PM]

the wow starts NOW.

[John W @ Jun 11th 2007 9:34PM]

With the simple addition of a Zune tattoo, Larry completed the metamorphosis to become overwhelming attractive to the Ladies....

[Rjay @ Jun 11th 2007 9:36PM]

I hope somewhere in the world that symbol represents "owned"

[telepheedian @ Jun 11th 2007 9:37PM]

This reminds me of that lady who got an ad tattooed on her forehead...

[randy @ Jun 11th 2007 9:37PM]

Wait, that's actually an interesting tatoo.

[Anthony @ Jun 11th 2007 10:07PM]

Plus that tattoo had to be on her forehead.

Luckily in 2 years (you know, when the Zune no longer exists) nobody will know what this meant & he can come up w/ any explanation he wants.

I have no Idea what a zune is.. though after reading the posts here I can guese it is MS's responce to the i-pod. I guese that says how popular and good the zune is. Especialy considering I am running 2 comps with windows. I have never had an i-pod.. but that is due to cost. I would definatly get one if I could afford it.. best MP3 player out there. though I would prefer if I DIDNT have to have i-tunes just to load songs on it... would be nice if it were like so many other MP3 players and I could just load directly from mediaplayer or if I could just open an icon on the "my computer" window and then drag my music to that to load it. Something tells me that when all is said and done, the zune will be a footnote in history, and the i-pod will be seen as a revolution in computer technology.

[Ace @ Jun 11th 2007 9:39PM]

Isn't that the World of Warcraft guy from that South Park episode?

[Tesley @ Jun 11th 2007 11:31PM]

hahahhaahhahahahha

[Googenheim @ Jun 12th 2007 12:10AM]

LOL nice

[idk @ Jun 12th 2007 2:03AM]

Wow, he does!

[Alexander The Best @ Jun 19th 2007 10:27AM]

R.O.F.L.

[monon @ Jun 11th 2007 9:39PM]

a apple logo would fit better on that fat arm

[Brian @ Jun 11th 2007 11:36PM]

Somebody better send this guy an iPod real zune... I mean 'soon.' Seriously, once he gets his hands on his iPod, he'll be regretting that tatoo.

[Jason @ Jun 13th 2007 4:34PM]

Man, you could put the front page of the New York Times on that arm.

[Jason @ Jun 11th 2007 9:45PM]

I don't hate the Zune at all (unlike the people here...), but that's just sad. But look at the guy, he's big, and looks like he's living in his parents basement. He has nothing better to do, then get a tatoo, then get 1 minute of fame. LAME!

[dikkers91 @ Jun 12th 2007 5:42PM]

i don't know why everybody is making fun of this guy. seriously, WTF? so what he likes the zune. so what he got a tattoo. does that give everyone the right to suddenly post hate comments? no! so shut the fuck up if you can't be a biased little bitch. personally, i like apple, but i will not stoop to the level of some on this site and judge somebody on a simple preference of music player. by the way, i think the zune has a much cooler logo than the ipod, just for the record.

[Osc @ Jun 16th 2007 8:29PM]

dikkers; the answer is simple: The guy posted a picture of it online. Regardless of whatever reason he did put it online, he instantly agreed to the knowledge that he was going to get ridiculed, mocked, and laughed at. Why? Because the Zune is ridiculed, mocked, and laughed at. As well, that's how people are online. People voice their opinions loudly. Simply; people will because they can, and this guy had to know it was coming.

[Gonz0 @ Jun 24th 2007 1:06AM]

{lol} I actually know this guy. His name is Steve, lives in Sioux City IA, and he DOES actually live in his parent's basement!

Steve, if you ever read this, so you know who it is: You owe me $10 for losing the X-Pox 360 vs. PlayStation 3 bet. :)

Yes, he's a Microsoft tragic, through and through. He actually had an i-Pod and then sold it to buy the Zune on the first day of release. {shaking head}

[Ty @ Jun 11th 2007 9:49PM]

Wow, what I wouldn't give to have my own solar system and Zune tat.

[Spencer Fogler @ Jun 11th 2007 9:49PM]

I guess microsoft's "join the social" thing worked, it did on this guy anyways. But judging from his size he probably doesnt have friends so he needed some sort of gadget to get him plugged in

[MrGam3r @ Jun 12th 2007 9:55AM]

What would you say if that guy was reading the comments for this article?

[Jonathan Keim @ Jun 11th 2007 9:51PM]

I would say Microsoft made him by the looks of his face

[James Ollier @ Jun 11th 2007 9:52PM]

Does this mean he can only fornicate 3 times in the next 3 days?

[pencap23 @ Jun 11th 2007 10:04PM]

AHAHAHAHAHHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!

[Billy Kincaid @ Jun 11th 2007 10:28PM]

*dead*

[Arthur @ Jun 11th 2007 10:31PM]

squirt squirt squirt

[akijikan @ Jun 11th 2007 9:53PM]

The look on his face really roflz mah woflz because you can tell he knows he is stupid for getting it.

[Byrongman @ Jun 11th 2007 9:54PM]

Come on Engadget!

I'm sure you guys are just hiding the fact that you probably all have Zune tramp stamps. ;-)

[Wolfticket @ Jun 11th 2007 9:55PM]

I wouldn't say he looks regretful, more shocked. Are you sure Bill Gates didn't get him really drunk and he woke up with it?

Aaaaactually, once the Zune is long forgotten and Apple only have the fruit market left to conquer, I can think of worse random symbols to have tattooed on your person.

[Rand @ Jun 11th 2007 10:08PM]

Oh sure, we can all laugh at him here on Engadget. But step into the World of Warcraft and we'd all be his bitch.

[John Doe @ Jun 11th 2007 10:25PM]

ROTFLMAO Rand wins the thread. :-D

[Neebs @ Jun 11th 2007 10:10PM]

Do you have to ask that question? The picture answers it for you.

[Jane @ Jun 11th 2007 10:10PM]

What ever floats your boat.

[Blackstar @ Jun 12th 2007 9:52AM]

I think he'd sink it.

[mark burban @ Jun 11th 2007 10:17PM]

Q. What kind of man gets a Zune tattoo?
A. Someone who gets his mate to draw it on his arm with marker pens, then takes a photo with a mock confused look on his face, so that this may make it to engadget's front page, & improve his chances of getting laid (or winning something free) by @ least 1%.

[SugarDaddy @ Jun 12th 2007 9:53AM]

Well we know that's BS. This guy has no mate.

[todd @ Jun 11th 2007 10:23PM]

Q: How is this different than a Harley Davidson tattoo?

A: There aren't a quarter of a million others who have the same freakin' thing.

I say this guy wins.

[John Doe @ Jun 11th 2007 10:23PM]

Answer: An idiot.
This includes anyone who puts a marketing logo on their body. Be it a shirt or a tattoo.

[williedigital @ Jun 12th 2007 12:49PM]

hard not to... what kind of sneakers do you wear??

[Big @ Jun 11th 2007 10:25PM]

Did this guy have the slightest clue that his new tatoo wouldn't have even dried by the time his mug was on Engadget being poked fun at?

[Mephistophelian @ Jun 11th 2007 10:30PM]

At least in a year when no one can remember what a Zune or a Zune logo looked like he can pass it off as something else.

[Paul @ Jun 11th 2007 10:34PM]

Lol, you guys should see the forum where he posted it. All the people there are praising him and telling him to get more Zunes! That tattoo is probably the coolest thing about this guy, sad.

[kimjongil @ Jun 14th 2007 1:46AM]

Post a link. I always like a laugh. :)

[Boris @ Jun 11th 2007 10:37PM]

I think he just looks really really apprehensive like Steve Ballmer is behind the camera and made him get the tattoo and not say anything about it.
