My niece looks like that. She found a job at an adult book store.

Nah. I have a lot of punks in my family. You get used to it pretty quickly.

Imagine seeing one of these people pushing your grand mother's wheelchair around at a nursing home. D'oh! what were they thinking? I know everyone has a right to express themselves, but, others have a right to wonder - what the ****
There's job for everyone that's for sure. It just depends on the *career* path you choose. Body modification ranges from mild to extreme, I'm guessing none of those interested in extreme body modification is much interested in being a banker.
On the other hand, as we talked about in the Ink and the Workplace thread, milder forms of boby modification are becoming much more commonplace and accepted. No one even looks at a simple nose piercing any more than they do pierced ears anymore. Same for navel piercings.

One thing's for sure... with all that metal, these folks had better stay away from heavy duty electromagnets...
Damn, they make Pinhead look like a wimp!

They could never make it as secret agents or "ninjas" all that clanking and clinking would make it hard to sneak up on somebody
LOL! You have a point there.
You know, I was just thinking, with those kinds of piercings you can look pretty intimidating, but all someone has to do grab a hold and PULL! Can you say "ouch"?
No kidding. Look at all those targets... :lol2:
I know of an attractive girl at my work who has a tiny diamond chip on her nostril. I remember thinking/hoping that she won't get carried away with it in the future. She's really pretty and shouldn't mar such beauty with piercings.
Some folks just want to say something... WHAT? I have no clue but they think they're expressing themselves with excessive piercings. Sheesh... soo umm, like... what's your message dude? "I want to tell the world to **** off!" ??? Well gee.

Oi! I resemble that remark :lol:
You make me fear that I am horribly old fashioned and repressive JT
.I don't know if it's related to my fear of needles (long story ... blood poisoning as a child ... many injections) but any piercings make my stomach turn (with the exception of normal earings, probably because the fact that they do pierce the lobe is somewhat masked).
And of course some of us would not find a nostril piercing unattractive. I've said this before, "The only difference between people with bodyart and those without, is people with bodyart won't judge you for not having any."
