Is that why I have no friends?
Like tats it’s a lifelong commitment
Oddly enough this was a topic on Triple J’s Hack a couple months ago, about the rising number of young folk getting cosmetic surgery to fix their ears. Realistically nothing is a life long commitment anymore, it seems to be more people spending lots of money to fix what wasn’t thought out enough. I have tattoos, piercings aren’t for me. I see people I think may have made choices they will regret on both fronts long-term, but it isn’t for me to judge.My ink may be the poor decision you think I’ve made, doesn’t mean I’ll judge you on that either.
I really wanted tats when I was younger. As insurance against regrets I got them on my back where I couldn’t see them and they would fade by the time I’m old and wrinkled due to all the sun my back gets surfing.
Only ever had one piercing - it lasted 2 weeks because it got infected. Glad it wasn’t on my face because it scared!
Didn’t want my daughter to get her ears pierced but I caved eventually. One side keeps migrating down, It’s been re-pierced but continues to migrate and looks odd.
I respect peoples decision to “own” their body.
To elaborate on my post.
I effing hate those massively stretched ears, spacers can and mostly do look cool (like8-12mm)
But in saying that im not going to judge anyone on them, im sure many people hate myb tattoos but i dont give a flying Mizu what poeple think of my ink, its for me.
I’m glad that you see it that way!!!!!
Flying Mizu’s don’t grow on Trees ya know!!!!!

ohhh maude flanders would be fairly disappointed with that attitude surferguy
but mostly to get instagram shout outs from miss fabel huh deano? haha
Exactly!
massive fan of tatts depends where the piercings are for me. but again, whatever makes ya happy hey. do it for yourself, and don’t give a fk what any-one else thinks
Pretty much agree, never would do t/stretch ear thing but I am a fan of ink…. on other people.
Haha just found this thread..Have two cartilage piercings for a while now and only just got my lobes pierced last weekend to start stretching and I’m in my mid 20s. I like the idea of smaller stretchings but not big enough to pass a salami through. Just not my idea of a good time 8-10mm max I think..
Just my opinion some people look awesome with bigger holes but not for me..
Does the size of the hole emulate the amount of space between ears?
