Piercings

Do you have any? What do you think about them?
I like the way some of them look but I'm ridiculously squeamish and hate needles of every kind and would never get one myself

That and earrings... I could live in a world where people didn't do that sort of things to themselves.

I have my right ear cartilage and right nipple pierced. I used to have both eyebrows and my bellybutton done, rbut I no longer have those.

While I am generally mortified at any piercings at all, I've seen a Prince Albert or 2 that for some odd reason I find appealing.

I used to have my lip, tongue and eyebrow pierced. I removed them all eventually because I'm not a person who can easily sacrifice any comfort for the sake of a look. There was a time when I would grow my hair, get a piercing, wear uncomfortable jeans and so on for the sake of a look but not now.
I think they can look good, I especially like a lower lip piercing on a girl. I usually see it as a bit of a hint that the girl is quite a sexual person if she has a piercing, I don't know why my brain has come up with that stereotype.
I hate it when its taken too far though, like with corset piercings and so on, also I don't believe piercings enhance sex in anyway for me.
When I got my piercings done I saw it as a test really to see if I could go thru with it and it wasn't so bad. The trick is to breath in as the needle goes through, just take a gasp of air, for some reason that worked for me everytime.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

I like it if it's done with subtlety. I had a classmate in college who just had one piercing, on his forehead, and it looked great on him (bald, thin biker body). I'd look like such a tryhard, though.

I don't have any piercings. Big surprise, I know.
