I once knew a guy
Who had a home-made tattoo gun powered with the battery pack of a ZX Spectrum. Yes, really. When I say "guy", I mean my friend's older brother, when I was in primary school and he was in third year (grade 10 to our English brethren). The power connection was dodgy, so the gun used to go "DIH-DIH-DIH-DIH-dih-dih-dih-DIH-DIH-DIH-DIH-DIH-DIH-dih-dih...DIH-DIH-DIH-DIH-DIH-DIH" - fast for a moment then wavering drunkenly. What did he get tattooed on his shoulder? Well, it was back in 1991, the time of RAVE, so he got:

THE SHAMAN

I think he meant to get:

THE SHAMEN.

Spectrums ran off batteries?
I used to really like The Shamen, but I got better.

"Tattoo Fail" is an internet sport all of it's own.
