What body mods (tattoos, piercings, brandings, implants, scars, ect.) do you have or plan to to have? Is there any that you don't plan to pursue, but would still like to have?
Right now I don't have anything. I've never even had a little piercing.
Although I like to think of myself as a hardcore badass, I'm actually a wuss. I don't plan to get any piercings. Not because I'm scared of the pain, I'm scared of the possible disfiguring complications that might develop afterwards. I've seen friends that have had piercings migrate or get infected. One of my sister's friends had to undergo plastic surgery because his septum piercing left him with a mononostril.
Seeing that mononostril was just too much for me, I'll avoid piercings like the plague for the rest of my life because of it. At least facial piercings.
However, I don't have problems with tattoos. Even though I myself don't have one, I'm quite familiar with them. I've read plenty on them-- Everything from the prison tattoo customs of white supremacist and Chicano gangs, Japanese back tattoos, the introduced of tattoos to Europe by sailors that visited Pacific societies, lots of stuff. But there is still a whole lot more I don't know about.
I look forward to turning 18 and being able to get my first tattoo. Although I could easily give myself a ghetto one right now with a safety pin and a bottle of india ink, I plan to get all mine done by professionals. I can be patient.
This tattoo (a cross between white zombie logo and public enemy) was done with nothing more than a sewing needle, fountain pen ink and a soda can. I know this guy from another forum. Not bad, huh?
Right now I'm eyeballing a pencil on my desk. While writing up this thread I've been tempted to give myself a graphite Samoan tattoo by stabbing myself with it repeatedly.
*throws the pencil across the room*
Anyways, these are the tattoos I plan to get:
Rainbow Brite on the back of my calf. Aw yeah, that will prove to the world just how hardcore I am. \m/^_^\m/
Starlite and Twink will be pink instead of white, however. Don't think I'm joking, I'm dead serious about getting this.
Dr. Nners of Deadsy logo on the other calf.
A Deadsy chain bracelet (left wrist), I want it to be black and yellow
A large skinny puppy logo in the middle of my chest. I want it to be black.
And finally, Link holding up a piece of the Triforce on my left shoulder.
These are all the things I want now, I'm sure I'll get plenty of others.
