Hm. Something like Towers of Hanoi, a red/black tree, or a finite state machine diagram could be cool
Neat, but to quote Groucho Marx, "I don’t want to belong to any club that will accept people like me as a member."¹
Sure, science gang members get these, then others who fancy science or like the cred get them, and pretty soon the liberal arts gangs will get tattoos and then there will be, and to quote Dr. Peter Venkman, “human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together – mass hysteria.” ²
Sources: 1. Truncated quote found on WikiQuote for Groucho Marx, from Telegram to the Friar’s Club of Beverly Hills to which he belonged, as recounted in Groucho and Me (1959), p. 321: Quote with more context, “I sent the club a wire stating, ‘Please accept my resignation. I don’t want to belong to any club that will accept people like me as a member’”. 2.) Quote found via Google, but not in the script for Ghostbusters, film, 1984, verified via clip uploaded to youtube, by user GhostbustersOrg on 2012 03 16 .

I like the cartoons (especially the one about the library training regime and the collective nouns for bookish types), but find the price a bit stiff.
Google search shows a number of geeks out there with HTML tats, especially the </head><body> gag on the back of the neck.

The Westside Maths Banditos design should be a slide rule instead of a calculator for extra geek-cred
