I had a friend who got nipple piercings when she was drunk. the piercing person was also drunk. Basically we were all drunk.

She got an infection, and she's now short of a boob (though the silicon one really does look great!)

My sister got one of those in secret back when she was in high school, but it got infected, and then the swelling got so bad that she couldn't unscrew the thing (it looked like a lump of purple flesh with a marble peeking out at this stage), so my mom inevitably found out and dragged her to a doctor, who had to cut it out.

Ah, fun memories. :P

I currently have 2 piercings used to have 3.. 2 of which were nipples on 2 separate occasions I have "lost" one of the piercings, the first time was the piercing hooking on a shower door, yup very painful.
Had it put in again, after my last stretch it just migrated out, fortunately not actually painful.

Good grief! Please take care of your piercings! infections are so easy to avoid if you get it at the right places and clean it regularly! I hope they all recovered quickly!

Piercings ripping clean off is one of my secret fears. I've had my nose stud violently yanked out due to the ratties biting it or it getting stuck in a towel and that alone is pretty painful. Can't imagine it being pulled clean off from my flesh :shock:

Ah that was a long time ago my piercings are just fine had them for a long time, never get infections. My last nipples stretch was just one gauge too large which is why it migrated out, want to have it put in again but I have been advised I will need to go lower down the nipples to the vulva which is going to be agonising to pierce so a little um... scared as nipples at the best of times are one of the worst piercings to have done.

Which is why my skin has never been touched by any kind of needle save for medical reasons. Thank you!

Was it painful the first time? The most painful piercing I got was the septum piercing and that's straight through bone. But one's nipples are extremely sensitive so i can imagine that being really painful!

It was quite painful, but even the girl who does my piercings said herself the nipples were practically the worst you can get.
Going down into the ariola is even worse.

I'm too worried about piercings catching on things to get them.

I somewhat fancy the idea of getting inked, but I don't like the idea of piercings. I don't even have my ears pierced.

If I ever get into the Rangers, I will get the appropriate tattoo. Something to commemorate the achievement.

I have a double cartilage piercing in my left ear, and am determined to get matching ones on my right. and if I can I will get full up and down ear piercings.

I don't know why other people do it, but my reasoning is my fear of needles. I am determined to prove to myself that I am not afraid...

hence why I did the tongue ring...

still working on the courage for a tat though :P

For the depressed, tats and piercings easily take the place of cutting. Every time I've had a piercing or tat done I was really down at the time. Having spent many hours over the last 20 or so months in therapy at a mental hospital I can say every single person I came into contact with had tats or piercings. All were in therapy for some sort of depression.

Woo, just trundled in on this gem of a thread. will post my ink tomorrow!
If you take your marker and connect this dot to that one, that one to this one here you will get a really annoyed dalmatian.

Inking is not nearly as bad as piercing.
The risks of the one are far less than the other. In actual fact I think you run a greater risk of complications from your cat scratching you than getting inked.

Piercing is invasive, and regarding piercing below the belt, its a gamble, you could end up ruining your enjoyment of sex forever.

My siblings demand I get matching Tattoos with them when I get back, will see how that goes. I'm not against it though provided we find a good artist

It will probably go onto my thigh or an area normally hidden under clothes because jobs and it wont really be for showing off to people.
It does not do to leave a live dragon out of your calculations, especially if you live near him.

Always be yourself..... Unless you can be a Dragon, then always be a Dragon

For me, there are more than enough places to express oneself. But I do like the art style of tattoo's

Its usually a very personal thing, hence most people have it done in places not normally exposed via clothing.

Oh yes. Finished to more times than I can count! At one point it was the only reason I got out of bed. I'm forever amazed and thankful for that game! That actually reminds me to update my signature.

I think that one was about to say 'I love you.' They ARE sentient, of course. We just have a LOT of them...
