I have to wonder what the endgame was for people with huge stretched earlobes, if they thought it would just be cut off with cosmetic surgery, of it they thought they would just aways have gauges in their ear because gently caress you dad it's not a phase

Also wear your helmet biking ffs it's you vs cars and anything you can do to help is good

If you take those sheep again I will bury this fucking axe in your skull.
I know a guy who has those stretched ear lobes. Every time I see him I'm so tempted to put a loving padlock through his ears.

He blamed getting turned down from a job in Her Majesty's Government (he said it was for MI6 but lol whatever) because everyone else was from Oxford or Cambridge.

I'm sure it had nothing to do with your loving stupid stretched earlobes, the full sleeve tattoo of a koi carp or the Gothic lettered ambigram on your forearm that looks more like BOVRIL than it does DEMON.

Most of them are bright enough to not get tits tattooed across their forehead, stretchy earlobes are the same way.

I think a number of people (myself included) were under the impression that stretching one's earlobes in a slow, progressive manner lets them return to normal size once you take them out. As it turns out that's not the case, much to my delight :getin:

Idk how you can justify getting a massive tattoo on your chest but I guess they plan on wearing button shirts & ties to work everyday

Giant tattoos are dumb but at least viable in a "just wear a shirt" way. But I've seen a pretty big increase in the number of people getting hand, ankle, neck, or even full sleeve tattoos. Although my favorite has to be the picture of one on the web, dude with a big beard and "Rough Hands" tattooed across his knuckles that looked like they haven't had to work a day in their existence

Some people are quite content working jobs that don't require them to be prim and proper at all times, and I in fact know a few people that managed to make a neck or wrist/forearm tattoo look pretty tasteful.

Appeasing corporate overlords through the pursuit of physical opulence is great and everything, but I don't think it warrants making fun of those that choose to express themselves through body modification.

That being said, these millennials are loving stupid.

It's not "body modification". It's getting stupid loving piercings and tattoos like a stupid loving rear end in a top hat.

Tattooing and piercing has been done for centuries.

The term "body modification" has been around since at least 1996, coined by a man born in 1941. It was the subtitle of the second edition of his 1987 book.

They may look like assholes, but you're blaming the wrong generation.
