scarring your body forever

[lauralh]

So, I think I might be getting a job. At which point I can then look as funny as - well, they'll let me. I'm talking neon hair and weird facial piercings. And tattoos that are only visible when I wear tank tops or less.

So I have some pretty silly ideas on this topic which I'm therefore going to open up for public ridicule.

edit: this piercing is a lot sexier than the one I posted.

scott wasn't in today, or i would've hounded his ass. i'm sorry!

I can't think of an ooglayer place to put a piercing.

[jimbojones.livejournal.com]

Word.

I vote yes on the Strong Bad tattoo, with the understanding that you will regret it in a couple of years. Knowing that is half the fun.

[ernunnos.livejournal.com]

Get the piercing if you think it suits. As a general rule of thumb, don't get any cartoon characters tattoo'd on you that aren't as old as you are. A cartoon character from your early childhood might be ok. I'd recommend a Smurf tattoo before a Strong Bad tattoo, even though I think Smurfs are lame and Strongbad is awesome awesomeness.

Yeah someone said "That's like getting a tattoo of Taz or something."

[discogravy.livejournal.com]

do you really want to get a tattoo of a flash cartoon? does strong bad mean something to you personally? like, something deep that you want to always remember? I would so advise against it otherwise.

I would have suggested a tongue or nipple piercing before the labret. Labrets are not sexy, and if you're going to mod your bod....why would you do it for the worse and not the better? Tongue is sexy and functional (Jimbo will bakc me up on this, I'm sure) and nipple/genital piercings are sexy (and maybe functional for you, depending...think of nipple rings as "pull here" signs for those guys too dense to be rough in bed without reading minds.)

Tongue barbells should be more common in girls than earrings, if you ask me. =)

Tattoos of 'great personal significance' are so fucking pretentious. Chances are, things you think you're always going to want to remember now are things you really could care less about 5-10-15 years down the road. I wouldn't recommend getting a tattoo for this reason. The only exception to this are tattoos that are there to remind you of a certain, non-fleeting, period of your life.

Tattoos really should be things that mean absolutely nothing or esthetic designs. Those are the things that really fit the 'timeless' category. You'll always be able to look down at a Strong Bad tattoo and giggle.

Also: sexy, sexy, sexy. Why do you hate attractive piercings so much?

andrew did most of it for me

so I'm just gonna say that I do not like rough nipple play in the fucking least.

I nearly got a Cap'n Crunch tat once, when I was owed money by an artist.

But yeah, regret.

I"m not in favor of laberet piercings...Eyebrow or tongue is much more attractive, and as for the tatoo, I'd get something a little less dated....but then, I have almost no desire to have a tatoo. The only thing i *might* do one day is a nose piercing....otherwise i'm too squeemish. But, hey, do whatever you want...

[vyacheslav.livejournal.com]

Eyebrow and tongue are very excellent

[infinite-hiatus.livejournal.com]

I've rarely seen labret piercings that I liked, but it is possible. I think the jewelry just needs to be small, not like that picture you linked to.

[wanton-bliss.livejournal.com]

Are you trying to move from kiddie porn model to disaffected teen?


Don't do it. You are way too attractive without having to (semi)permanently fuck yourself up.

[jimbojones.livejournal.com]

She's totally getting too old for pre-teen runaway pr0n, so teenage disaffected runaway pr0n is the logical next step...

But yeah, I agree.

Really things are different (http://www.suicidegirls.com) out here.

[victory-goddess.livejournal.com]

Labret piercings are annoying to look at

and is it just me, or did the Strong bad chick not have a belly button?

[herbaliser.livejournal.com]

the "strongbad chick" is me, dude. I have a belly button thank you very much.

Hmm.

[antimarx.livejournal.com]

Strongbad has no pecs, but I can assure you that Laural has a bellybutton.

Actually, I can't, as I was really drunk.

[antimarx.livejournal.com]

I'm not too good at this whole nested comment thing yet. Stupid LiveJournal.

"pull here, dumbass"

[quinnlove.livejournal.com]

Okay, first labret: dumb as hell. Don't bother, partly because of the location and partly because ew, plastic. I pretty much only like metal. Second picture, though, where it's more lippy? Yes, yes, yes. Much better, and way kissable.

Do you already have a tongue piercing? Because those are awfully nice. I mean, I've heard.

And I think if you need signs, you could just use a Post-It or a Sharpie or something, but hey, whatever works.

[herbaliser.livejournal.com]

I have no piercings at all, except the standard ears, b/c of the whole nickel allergy thing. I wasn't sure if it was nickel or stainless steel, anyway.
