Wow.
That wins for world's dorkiest tattoo. Dorkier than the golden ratio. Dorkier than e^{i\pi} \eq -1, and maybe dorkier than using latex notation in a web forum :)

I'm thinking about getting a tattoo. The goal is to get something that is aesthetically pleasing in an abstract sense, to avoid thinking something is ugly years later.

$e^{i\pi}=-1$

I was thinking about the great wave, a dragon, a dragon fly or something else made up of PCB layout lines. I think that would look very nice on a forearm. http://www.imakethings.com/2007/09/14/image-to-pcb-app-and-p...
Most science tattoos are very, very ugly. And what if maxwell's equations or the Y-combinator get invalidated in the future :-P ?
Granted it's been a while, but one can never be too careful.
Witness the evolution of 'V-E+F=2' since Euler's time:

Is it right? Is it wrong? What does it mean to even BE a 'face' ?
Although I guess the worst thing that could happen in this situation is you change your explanation of the tattoo, and not the tattoo itself.
