Tattoos, piercings, and other styles of body modification.

[Handley_Page]

Am I the only one without tattoos? Or body piercings?

I do admit to being old and never seeing the allure of getting pricked by a needle with ink on it thousands of times or having a part of my body pierced by a piece of metal or plastic.

No, Zeb, you ain't.
I have just one 'tattooed' mark; it's on my sternum and it marks where the lasers crossed for the Radio Therapy machine to point it's beams in the right place when I had cancer a year or two ago. I have often thought about having it 'enhanced' by over-laying a pistol or rifle sight, but not so far.
But as for all that ironmongery, piercings etc, I think it's repulsive for the most part.
If I want to kiss a girl, I want it to be her and only her; not a load of metalwork getting in the way, thank you.

But then, I'm an old guy; what can you expect?

Nope. No tattoos, no piercings. Never an urge for either. Nothing against them either. (Although I think a pierced tongue, dentally, is just stupid.)

Tattoos can be addictive. You here that gun you want one.

So very true. The only reason I don't have more is my tastes run expensive. The pieces I want are all costly, and not work you want Joe "Hey look I can draw barbed wire" tattoo guy doing. Plus since I moved, I don'y know who's good around here.
I got over the piercing bit in the 90's. I did my ears, but I only have one that's still useable.

My wife's helped her to stop stuttering. Can't say it's caused her any problems as far as dentally.

There was a over heating incident when we went out for lasagna.

My daughter takes her earrings out to skate. The metal through the ear gets cold.

I have never heard of a tongue piercing as a stuttering remedy. Was that a side effect of the piercing, or did she get the piercing because someone told her it would help?

Funny...When I did stuff in the cold I never noticed my jewelry getting cold.

She's a sensitive little princess. She skates in short sleeves, but the earrings put her over the edge.

More of a side effect I think. She noticed that she had stopped doing it about two weeks latter. It was never really bad to begin with.

She got the piercing because of the lemming effect. Everyone she knew had one.


I didn't want to point out to her that I didn't have one and had no plans to get one. She would have then begun to try and brow beat me into getting one. I've done enough crazy things because she asked me.

The pain is also a hell of a rush, especially for someone like myself who's lifestyle consists of a pretty blurred pain/pleasure line to begin with.

...

Yeah, sorry, I'm not into pain. Getting blood drawn or having an injection doesn't bother me in the least. Yet other types of pain bother me.

I have been cut by knives, hit with sticks and fists, even grazed ( I was real lucky on that occasion ) by a bullet. All pretty painful. Had ribs broken, a lung punctured, real painful. I know pain and I would never think of willing inflicting pain on myself on purpose.

Getting pierced or tatted...no thank you.

They say, girls get tongue piercings to please guys and vise versa.

Ever seen the people who split theirs?

A little tapped in the head at that point I think.

A physical beating is a different type of pain than I am describing. The pain if a tat is like a burn, but a good burn.

Hard to describe if you've never had one.

 

[PennLady]

I have double-pierced ears, but nothing else. Never any urge for a tattoo or more piercings, although nothing particularly against it.

It's the type of thing I don't put in stories because I don't think of it.

Hmm... Do tell, MST.

I'm 49 and have ten tattoos, but they are all from mid bicep up, and across my shoulders, so a t-shirt hides them easy enough. I had my ears stretched to half inch up until about seven years ago, and then I quit wearing earrings or plugs.

My tongue was pierced for years, and yes, my wife loved it to death I took it out because you get in the habit of playing with it, and people give you strange looks. You also tend to get very blatant offers from women on occasion.

The only way I could ever find to describe getting a tattoo, was it felt like someone was rubbing a cheap pocket comb across my skin. It never really hurt, at least not for me.

 

[jomar]

?..

Sooner or later, I'm going to have to find someone with nipple and clit piercings so I can find out how right I am about certain assumptions.

I too, have suffered greatly for my art.

I have three on my forearms so I can still cover with a long sleeve shirt, but summer time oh, well.

Back in my occult obsessed days I came close to getting several symbols on my fingers and knuckles. I never ended up doing it and looking back on it am glad because its not so much they would always be seen, but more a case of running into people who knew what they meant.

 

[Catchalot]

I'm always amazed by the people that somehow think I must suffer at least a little regret over them, and its laughable, because most of the time I don't even remember they're there.

I'll be working in the yard in a tank top, and someone will swing by and be like, "Wow, I had no idea you had tattoos?"

I never had to deal with the workplace problem I hear people mention, so I never cared who knew about mine, and besides, my tongue piercing got way more attention than my tattoos ever did.

Here is a few of mine.

Hmm... Do tell, MST.

I know it's there and yes it does add a different feeling but at that moment my mind is occupied on all the other things like heat, wetness, suction, teeth, and every other part of oral that makes it wonderful.

You asked I will tell. I have no shame at all in anything I have done.

 

[soflabbwlvr]

I have three on my upper arms. They're easily covered for work, or can be revealed when I choose to do so. I plan to get up to three more over the next 10 - 12 years. I enjoy the entire process, but I have a definite limit in mind as to how much and which areas of my body that I want inked. As a result, I've taken my time acquiring them. When I reach my quota, I'm done for good.

I'm having this done on my back, over my left shoulder blade. Well, just as soon as my artist gets her shop set back up. Say in about a month or so give or take. Then at some future point when time allows I'm going to have her do a Samurai in the same style for the other side.

Then a yen yang in between.

There are some people that have split things much further south that I think are a bit worse in the head.

Nice. Black and grey or colored?

Below is last years, The Paul Booth baphomet. It is all supposed to be black and grey, but I wanted the eyes and circle to be red to give it some pop. 6 hours and the pic was taking right after, the swelling gave it a 3-d effect.

That stupid dragon through the right horn is this summers project having a couple of Lovecraftian looking "bookends" put on, one clinging from each horn and one covering the dumb dragon that my daughters refer to as "puff"
