A look back on popular stories from today in a specific year.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
I can smell his b.o. even over the internets.
It's the inter-tubes. They pass smells much easier. ;)
he has very small thumbs!
I really wonder what his motives are...
I'd hit it.
What fanboy would get ANY tattoos?
It's a new form of marketing... steve jobs is a fricken genius
logyk... sigh... logyk...
now some even fatter zune fanboy is gonna get a tattoo of Him!
i think logyk is on 2 somethin...here we have a relativly unattractive guy sporting a zune tatoo
AND THEN

we have a relativly attractive girl sporting an apple tatoo
cowinkydink? nahhhh
The real question is: "Why did they hyphenate welcome?" It's not like they ran out of space. Hell, I think you could tattoo James Joyce's Ulysses on his back, in that same font and not run out of room.

wow, there is something fatter than the ipod nano fatty.
this guy just wants to be on the internet, getting attention. where there you go bud, you're getting it, everyone can see what you are... be... proud..
how did they get my pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nih- "I'd hit it."
with an aluminum bat.
The first question I come up with is "What is this guy thinking?" Then I realize he probably isn't really thinking.
The Zune isn't bad but I don't think it is worth 3 tattoos that will stay there until you die. I only just saw my second person with a Zune today. The first was a relative on a cruise during Spring Break.
@ amazingrobbie
FYI, its against the Jewish religion to mark ones skin. e.g. piercing, tattoos, etc.
it isnt followed very well even in orthodox communities, but it is a jewish law.
When the next line of Zunes come out (the rumored V2 and the flash based 'minis') he's going to get a tattoo of each of them and their respective prices. I'm calling it, right here, right now.
The man is a walking billboard. A walking, obese, hairy, unsightly billboard. I even like the Zune, but this . . . this is asinine.
@ Toppguunn
It was a joke. Obviously he didn't attach part of his foreskin to his finger. That's something...else entirely, and much more gross, especially with that freakbag smile he has.
"It will be the catch phrase, "welcome to the social" and I will have it tattooed on my back from shoulder to shoulder"
Above quote taken from blog before tattoo was installed.
i guess this tattoo is what you call "bitching out." What happened to shoulder to shoulder?
Furthermore...
Didn't want to have them shave your whole back?
and...
your tattoo is crooked. The letters look like they were stenciled on by a 3rd grader. Is that "Helvetica Crooked"
finally...
Are you excited that they hyphenated welcome?
re: comment by thursday
i misread and though you'd put 'run out of doom' lmao!
This is a top secret plot by El Jobso.
You know in the Axe commercials everyone is hot, so the sheep go buy Axe deodorant? Well, what happens when they are ugly as sin?
Everyone... I give you the Zune tattoo man.
HE must be sponcered by M$!!!!!
Sponcered...probably not. Sponsored...perhaps.
No way. Microsoft is aiming at the hip young teen. This just reenforces the idea that Zune guys are geeky, ugly, guys.
More like sponsored by Burger King...
god no..
I second that emotion.
whats wrong with this guy ... besides his need to get three zune tattoos?
I'm thinking at 4 we should start to call him crazy.... or something
ew
At least he didn't pay 10,000 for a WoW character.

haha, the c in welcome is off
So
much
hair.
I only see two tattoos, where's the third?
It's against standards to show it
I don't think we want to know, haha.
I knew someone would get me(You Win)!!!lol but yes he is Sponsored...perhaps.
This is wrong on soooo many levels........
im scared
Why doesn't he just do one on his forehead?
I tattoo for a living and j would never let any customer get that done!!
or if idid I would atkeast line up the lettering clearly
Jesus those Tattoos are so bad!! Cheap tattoos aren't good
and good tattoos arent cheap
Well, on the bright side the tats will soon be covered in a thick layer of hair. So he won't have to feel as bad about having them when the Zune goes the way of "Microsoft Home" and "Clippy". >;-)
Did he let a 9 yr old draw it? Or does it intentionally look like crap? Well, you know... Zune-related part aside...
he's lonely.
he's hairy.
he can't reach back there to shave off his back-whiskers...
so he gets tattoo artists to have to shave a section and make art on his mural.
and if he keeps getting MS shit on him his eyes will turn red sooner than later with the red-eyes-of-death syndrome.
then we will lament hairy stinky zune tattoo man.
for he is no more.
no, he actually has a girlfriend... (getting married soon... I think)
http://www.zunescene.com/forums/index.php?topic=18679.0
wow, he is actually getting married? how am i not engaged? i'm fairly attractive and even have an iPhone. oh wait, i have standards...lol.
i was reading through that zune message board. and i thought apple fanboys were bad? what the hell! they were talking about tying up iphones and dragging them behind the "just married" car. what a bunch of idiots. i don't care which side you're on, but there's no way you can say the zune is better then the iphone. even the fatty nano is better then the zune. i'd rather have a shuffle than a zune. i'd rather have a sony md player than a zune. i'd rather have a bricked iphone than a zune.
hell, i'd rather have my tonsils removed than have a zune. microsoft makes total crap products. vista sucks...i got it free through my school. i'm back on xp now. my sister just got a new laptop for college with vista basic and its so slow she cant even use her computer to type a paper and it's a dual core with 1gb ram. i just mailed in my xbox 360 for the second time with a 3RLOD error. i can hardly wait for leopard to come out so i can buy myself a mac and i'm seriously thinking about getting a wii...i want microsoft out of my life for good!!
Oh, God No! it says three...and we can only see two. I dont think we wanna see the other.
Actually, the 3rd one is on his other arm, its like rabbits or something. Never quite figured out how rabbits tied into the Zune but whatever.
i hope the 15 minutes of fame is worth it to have those hideous tattoos
