As if this Zune Tattoo guy couldn’t get any crazier, he’s actually starting the process of legally changing his name to “Microsoft Zune.” As you’d suspect, Microsoft might have a problem with that, so Mr. Zune Tat called up tech support to ask their permission on whether it was OK. And for all of our enjoyment, Steve decided to record his call and put it up on YouTube. The result? The tech support line he talked to doesn’t have any real information for him and they advise that he write a letter to legal. If you’re interested, hit the jump for a tech support call that has all of the holding and none of the resolution that you’d normally get from your own tech support calls.

For those of us who have gone into a tattoo parlor sober, the decision to be permanently inked can be a difficult one. Fortunately, computer graphics artist Loic Zimmermann has developed a program that will allow users to get a look at what a complex design might look like on a 3D figure. If this technology catches on, the possibilities for pushing the art form are obvious. Let’s just hope Zimmerman can refine his software to include a program that illustrates what that naked chick tattoo on your chest might look like 30 years and 3 cup sizes from now.

newVideoPlayer(”electronictattoo_gawker.flv”, 475, 286);WARNING: EUROPEAN-FLAVORED SUGGESTED SEXUAL CONTENT If you caught that weird tattoo moment in Heroes last week, you will especially appreciate this new Philips Design electronic body art project, Skin: Tattoo. The girl makes the dude’s tattoos ooze mysteriously by getting him into a tantric embrace. My only confusion: with such a scary soundtrack, it kinda seems like she is draining away his life essence, and replacing it with black subcutaneous ink. Not exactly a selling point, Philips!

We thought we were over looking at tattoos on the Internet. Then Kotaku posts this Power Glove masterpiece. We might have to say it…can’t resist the cliché…but trying so hard…

Best. Tattoo. Ever.

What just happened? We blacked out for a minute and someone stole our wallet/pride. [kotaku]

Remember Steven Smith, the Zune tattoo guy? Well, having promised us a third Zune tattoo for a while now, Steven has re-emerged with not only pictures of the new design but also bearing a new, slimmer body. The tattoo is the catchphrase, “Welcome to the social” and is proudly (and apparently painfully) tattooed on the back of his left shoulder. What’s next, Steven? [ZuneMax]

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]

In case you missed the tabloids this weekend, Britney Spear committed the most pathetic of self mutilation acts, the spontaneous, emotionally-driven head shaving, quickly followed up with a bit of tattoo parlor action. Here’s the right combination of gadgetry so you can meltdown just like America’s favorite fallen idol.

Wahl “Balder” Ultra-Close Haircut Kit
Wahl’s 26 piece hair clipper piece holds the number one spot on Amazon, but this set of trimmers is endowed with an overbite that gets your fades and flat tops so close you can feel the heat of the metal teeth nuzzling into your flesh. The gold trim honors Britney’s trailer-lifestyle heritage. Yee Haw!

IdealSalon’s All-In-One Tattoo Kit
Includes a Tattoo gun, a rainbow of ink, a foot pedal, 4 stainless steel tips, 5 disposable tips for your skeezy friends, and an aluminum case anodized in black. That’s easily enough gear and ink to xerox yourself wrist and hip with the lips, and jesus-cross Britney has.–Brian Lam
