(WARNING: Before you read this, please let me remind you that doing you own
piercing can be dangerous, I would recommend that you have all piercings
done professionally.)
well, at breakfast in high school one last Tuesday, 8/20/2002, my and my
friends were having a good time as usual and then one of the punk/goth boys
in my grade started saying about how he can pierce himself and such. Well,
knowing most people in school, they donīt back up there words. I pierced my
left ear once before so I decided to challenge him to a piercing contest to
see if he could back up his words. He accepted and the rest of the day went
by.
I went home, grabbed some thin needles with the yellow ball at the end and
some alcohol pads and packed them in my book bag.
End of 8/20/02
The next day, when he sat down, I showed him then needles.
He then took one and shoved it through the webbing in between his left
thumb and finger. Well, I followed by doing the same thing. He then put
one through the skin all the way across the back of his left hand. Then I
put one in my left ear. Then one in my right ear. Then stabbed one in my
forearm muscle. He started to put one in his mouth (where the bottom lip
and gums meet), pushed it through and it came out of his chin. I just
shoved one right through my lip (where a labret is placed). Well, after the
experience, my hands just started shaking, not from the pain, but I guess
from the experience since I have never done any self-piercing besides my
left ear lobe and even then I felt queasy. But I thought it was cool and
went to class when the bell rang (after taking all the needles out of
course). What I donīt get was that everyone thought he one that dayīs worth
of piercing because of the needle through the chin piercing...I donīt know.
During break, I was talking to some of the same friends and just decided to
shove another needle through my lip again, didnīt affect me much but people
made some interesting faces when they saw a large needle sticking out of my
lip. During computer applications class, I stuck another one through my
right ear lobe then took it out for no real reason. After all that, I just
went home just thinking about what to do next.
End of 8/21/02
Well, I woke up and was thinking of what to do next so the movie "The
dentist" popped in my head and I remembered when one guy shoved a needle
through one patient’s cheek. So I slowly pushed one through my left
cheek and went to school like that. Robert, the guy I challenged, saw the
needle and said "Oh", and then he anxiously went to his book bag, grabbed a
safety pin, shoved it through his left cheek, and closed it
shut..."dammit", was what I was thinking to myself. But oh well. I took it
out and went to class. during break, I had yet another urge to pierce
myself so I shoved a needle through my left cheek and one in my right ear
without even feeling any pain (I guess I’m getting used to the
piercing stuff). During lunch, I went to the library, sat down and just
felt like piercing both my ear lobes and the webbing in between my left
thumb and finger. I took them out before my next class of course. During my
last class in electronics, I came up with this ingenious idea to pull a
"Jesus" and put a pin straight through my hand. Then I went home at the end
of school
End of 8/22/02
well, itīs Friday and I just want to end the week with something Robert
couldnīt beat so during the morning before my friend picked me up to go to
school. I began the 5 minute process of the deep hand piercing. First, I
put my hand down and pumped my hand a few times to find the veins. Then I
placed my hand flat on the pull out table thing where my keyboard is. I
then moved the veins around and placed the need in its proper place and
then I stuck it through. I thought it would be a synch until I found the
muscle right behind my palm. It was a sharp pain at first until I started
cursing at it then jabbed it through and pushed and pushed until it went
through the thick skin on my palm. I went to school and Robert couldnīt
top it which was pretty funny. He stuck a need through the skin on his
neck, and then I did the same thing. Took the needles out and then went to
class. During lunch, some friends heard about the piercing thing and I
decided to shove a needle through my left cheek. I did it, and then I stuck
one through my right cheek. Unfortunately the school cop and assistant
principal saw me doing it and called me over. "Shit. I’m busted", I
thought to myself. The assistant principal just gave me a warning that I
could get suspended for the piercing. The cop said something about showing
me a book with scriptures in it later. Iīm almost positive that he is going
to show me a bible. Oh well, end of Friday.
Today, 8/25/02, I didnīt feel like piercing anything. I went to school and
found out that Robert had pierced both of his nipples. "Sigh" I thought.
The piercing thing was starting to get boring to me extremely fast. And
well, once I wake up tomorrow before school. Iīm going to go pierce both my
nipples probably and then my nose or something. Well thatīs the story. In
just three days I have done 22 piercing which I tallied up on a piece of
paper. I forgot when I did some of them that is why I haven’t placed
them in my above story.
my piercings that i have done myself~~~~~~~:-: Bottom lip piercing- 2: left
cheek - 4: right cheek - 4: left ear lobe - 4: right ear lobe -4: through
left hand -1: webbing between left thumb and finger - 2: skin on throat
-1:
what iīm doing/have done may appear stupid but itīs just something to do.
what does everyone think anyway (donīt flame a lot please) ____________________

| . No, the best way to go is to have a friend who has a piercing license,
and is really safe and good. I just got both my nipples pierced last
Friday, there is no infection, there are no crustys, they are perfectly
symmetrical and he did a WONDERFUL job. Oh, and they aren't bruising they
don't hurt and they just feel great.
and the grand total of this
experience. 30 dollars because he needed some gas and cigarettes. ____________________

I don't know how the hell you got away with doing that at school.
It's unsanitary.
It's unsafe.
It's unappealing.
You don't have a license to do it.
Yes, you've probably heard all this from above posts.
I'm sorry, but I think it was very stupid and juvenile. I don't know why
people do it themselves. Most of the time, it ends up getting infected and
sometimes resulting in having to have surrounding areas of the piercing
removed. For example, having half your tounge cut off. It's not cool and
it doesn't make you special, not unless you're going for the Special Ed
kind of special.

Well you have to keep in mind the type of piercings I'm paying for.
I'm not going to trust just anyone to do surface piercings--I've seen too
many shitty surface piercings that reject in two weeks because they were
done with straight or curved bars, or by inexperienced piercers who do them
too shallow. My nape cost me ninety-one dollars (I'm a good tipper), but
it was worth it, I think. It's been almost five months and it hasn't given
me any problems. This guy did my dermal punch, too.
Sure, you can shop around for standard piercings, but I'm gonna stick to
the experts when it comes to surface stuff. And yeah, I probably paid too
much for my snug piercing considering the piercer had never done one
before. Let's see, the rook cost forty bucks, the tragus was fifty, the
snug was sixty, the sadhu was a forty-five (thirty-dollar procedure plus
fifteen-buck glass slug), and the nape at eighty-four plus tax plus at
least thirty dollars in tips . . . yeah.
So I suppose I could've gotten some of them cheaper, but I'm not going to
let just anyone take a quarter-inch piece of cartilage out of my head:
"Hey, my name's Andree, and you are . . . ? Ah cool. Here's a hole-punch
and here are some rags. You'll prollly have to press real hard to get it
through, and I'm sorry if I bleed all over you. Oh wait, could you wash
your hands first? That'd be super."

and dont anyone go off on one about how cheaper places are worse and youll
get gangrene from their fingers and youll die and then your soul will burn
and your friends will gt run over in a freak labret peircing accident...and
so forth, because ive heard it all before and its bullshit. my housemate
got an expensive peircing from a good place and its been infected ever
since, i got mine for a tenner including the stud and had one infection for
a while until i changed the metal of the ring. ____________________

| For me, it's mostly the experience. Aesthetics are secondary. It's not
just the pain; it's a highly personal sense of accomplishment. It's like
cutting one's hair. According to Devin, a girl will always cut her hair
when a guy fucks with her, and he's right. It's the
I'm-doing-something-for-me principle. I think it's a way of reclaiming
autonomy--some people go shopping, others cut their hair, and still others
get a piercing (or dermal punch or implant or scar). And you can't forget
all that delicious negative attention. ____________________

I am weak . . . I cannot pass up a thread about piercings. That shit's
addictive--when I got my rook pierced less than a year ago, I insisted it
would be my only. Now I have five. Not only is that shit addictive; it's
also expensive. Altogether there are over three hundred dollars of holes
in me, and the left side of my lip is really asking for it.
Pale-face, are you talking about something other than a regular bridge
piercing? Bridge piercings don't go through the bone; they're not that
deep. You can only get 'em done if you have enough fleshy skin in that
spot. They heal pretty quickly, though . . . something like 6 to 12
weeks.
This reminds me, I have to do another paper for research writing class.
I'm thinking about doing it on piercing & society, but I don't know where
I'll go with that. Maybe I'll talk about the acceptance of body mods in
American society . . . the history of piercing culture, maybe.
Piercing really does have its own culture. Last weekend I was comparing
piercings with some man in a mosh pit.
I yelled, "What size is your conch?"
He said, "A four! And they pierced it at that."
"Did you eat the chunk?"
"Yeah."
"Me too!" I said, and showed him my conch.
"Whoa, what size is that!?"
"A two. . ." and I relished in my-gauge-is-bigger-than-your-gauge glory.
Then it got scary. "I have to show you something!" he said, and he
proceeded to reach down to his pants. I thought, Aah! No! I don't want
to see it! but he reached into his pocket and pulled out a lighter,
which he flicked on inside his mouth to show me his uvula piercing. Then I
showed him my nape, and he showed me his lowbrets, and it was a special
moment.
Man, I wish I had forty dollars.

OMG! Thanks so much for that safety tip! *giggle* I'm sure a sterilized
needle would just totally make everything super safe!
Tell you what, my little 14.8. I haven't had any coffee yet, so I'm feeling
lethargic and therefore, not as prone to murderous rage. Go back and
actually READ the forum. All of it. Turn off whatever filter you seem to
have upstairs that made you think your post was in anyway, shape, or form a
decent and meaningful response. Then come back, and try again. If that idea
doesn't apppeal, then by all means, pick up those stove-top sterilizations,
and pierce yourself untill all you can do is sit on the couch and shit and
drool. ____________________
Okay, dazzle me.

i think that a piercing contest sounds fun. id do it ne way. i mean...dont
we all mutilate ourselves in some way? drinking, smoking, eating unhealthy,
cutting...even earpiercings are hurting yourself on purpose. diets suck
too
there is no way to never hurt yourself. its simply not done
i like blood and id pierce myself until i do get paraylzed. who gived a
shit. i just sit on my couch and sleep anyway. sounds like a party. lol
iv pierced myself in both ears, lip, nose and nipples
it fun! i encourage u to sterilize ur equiptment tho
just to b safe

quote] Does it bother you to see kids who purposley cut themselves in
obvious places to look cool or to look tough or to get attention? I am
serious...from the only other one or two that Iīve known, it made it that
much worse for them to see someone take an issue they knew nothing about so
lightly, so callously to attain an image that if they knew what it was
really like, would curl up and die.
It makes me sad because they don't know what they're walking into.
Self-mutilation might just start out as an attention grabber but it tends
to morph. At least, that's the way it was for me. I started on my arms, and
yeah, at the time it was dumb headed angst. I was stupid, I thought I had
"problems" ... but when I actually had true "problems" the pattern of
self-mutilation was already in place. I stopped working on my arms, because
people did see.
When kids stop working on their arms, stop gasping for attention it's
almost too late to help them. It almost makes me laugh with relief to see
others with flashy scratches because someone will see... and someone will
stop them because it's not too late to help. When you get sick with it, the
only way to stop is to want to ... and even if you do stop it never goes
away. So although you want to scoff at their stupidity, you might want to
hold their hand instead. It seems stupid, because they have no real
problems but times change.

all I have to say is DAMN!....
however, I have not the guts to pierce myself, or the equipment... I have
pierced 2 other people. One was a friend who just wanted another hole
through some scar tissue in her ear... SHe has about 18 holes in both ears,
both nipples, 3 tounge rings.. and I think that that was it. However on
this said day, I had been drinking crown royal and vodka and had skipped
Biology class and we were down at the restauraunt parkinglot near our
highschool. She gave me a safety pin and a lighter and it was increadibly
simple, just pop and she was done... Then this IDIOT decided she wanted her
nose done, by me, who was intoxicated and completely unknowledgable in the
arts of piercing. However, she gave me a safety pin, I got one of my extra
earrings, (I only have 6 piercings, 3 in each ear... pretty bland..) But
anyway, I torched the safety pin and jammed it in, it took about 5 minutes
because she kept pulling back, crying, and then begging me to finish it...
It was kind of creepy, kind of funny, and kind of sad. It is people like
that who just gives everyone else a bad name. But I got it all the way
through, and me and Meg, the girl who has tons of piercings keep on
laughing about it to this day... Incredibly humerous, though I won't ever
do it again, I probably wouldn't have done it at all had I not been
intoxicated.
And as for self mutillation, it is a method in which you harm yourself
for some release, not for ackowledgement or recognition from other members
of society to take pity upon you. Self-mutillation, if in fact is for said
purpose, should be readilly hidden or done during a stretch of time where
no one would really notice or on a part of the body not seen much.
Otherwise, it is just a sad cry for attention, and not the kind of
attention one would readilly want. It could lead to ruining your life such
as your parrents throwing you into a mental helth care facillity which
could potentially ruin the rest of your life.
Not to mention the point blank fact that, ANGST IS STUPID. Unless one has
true reasons for acting the way they do. then don't fucking pretend and do
it.
example: middle class- mom- dad- roof over head, food in stomach, not too
many fights around house... Yeah,, NO REASON AT FUCKING ALL TO HARM
ONE"SELF>.. anyway,,, that bit was a little angry rant about Meg's little
brother who is incredibly .... stupid. and does said examples for said
example reason... grrr. ____________________
