h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

The start to any successful society is members! So here we go. If you want to join, just put your name down here somewhere and list the modifications that you have (or want). As we get more people, we'll list them up on the page, and work our way from there.

Righty-ho.

I've got my eyebrow, tongue, bottom lip and left ear (twice) in piercings. I'd eventually like 2 more in my eyebrow to have 3 in a row, my nipple pierced, a tatoo (not sure of what) and a branding.

Right, I've got an oriental dragon on my left bicep/upper arm/shoulder, and a cross on a stone cross on my right shoulder blade. I am definately going to get another dragon, curling around my arm and up over my shoulder with the head across my pec. Potential other tattoos are a barcode with a DNA double helix beneath it on my spine, at the base of my neck.

After my next payday I will have an eyebrow piercing.

I should list mine too, shouldn't I?

I've just got three piercings in my right ear, one in my left and the small wyvern tattoo on my lower back. I want a much bigger dragon - http://cheesecakethulhu.homestead.com/files/MyTat.jpg - on the back of my right shoulder, and some celtic knotwork or something similar on the inside of each wrist.

Got a tattoo : it is between my shoulderblades, and of a weatherbeaten/cracked 3D cross, with a thorn wrapped around it. In black and grey. It's luuuuurvely.

Don't like the idea of piercings much, but I would like my lip, nose and a Madonna done one day. Maybe some teflon implants on my wrists. A whole bunch of tattoos (I'm planning a Junko Mizuno one right now for the inside/top of my forearm). Maybe some scarification. Not too sure about branding. Looks good.



Oh, and I like corsets too...

AND...I dye my hair, which is a valid form of body modification I think. Someone should write an article on how to get wooly hair...

Hey Sat! Gotta ask, what's a "Madonna"?

I was wondering that...

That makes three of us then!

Oh you people know nothing! Next you'll be telling me you don't know what surface piercing is!

A Madonna is an upper lip piercing which looks like a beauty spot...comprendez? Can be either side. Looks gooood. But it's a female only piercing, which is kinda I think it is sometimes called a Monroe.

Wait. Now I am confused. I need to go and check that, because there is also one similar to that; a piercing above the middle of the upper lip. Let me check.

Ah yes. The one above the upper lip is called a Medusa...



And the one that looks like a beauty spot is called a Madonna.

Oh, and Bob, I think the chin piercing you were thinking of earlier is called a LOWbret, not a LABret.

*has brilliant piercing site open in another window*

The LABret was my bad Sat. That's what I recall it being called, but we all know that I've got a memory like a sieve

And THAT's what those weird off-centre above lip piercings are? Wow. I never knew. I'm not a fan of them though, but that's just me

Oh, I really like them. I think they are cute. They don't work for everyone though!

I would post the link, but I think they sell stuff on the site, so it would get moderated out.

That sucks. Wish that we could link it!

Anyway - I've updated as much as I'm going to do tonight. I'm off to . Toss any more ideas, or whatever down in the conversation forum, and I'll pick it all up in the morning. G'night!

It's *third* on google search if you put *piercings* into the engine...

Ahhh, I knew it as a 'Monroe', or from hearing people say it, a 'Munro' I never made the connection....

Ok, so here´s mine:

Left shoulder-blade: celtic tribal tattoo
right shoulder-blade: female face looking through rip in my skin with a tear on her cheek and skull in the center of her eye (how do you call that black spot in english?)
left lower-leg: celtic tree of life

left ear: pierced twice (but might have to take that out - I hate w*rk)

Future plans (as soon as I got the money ):

7 kanji-letters down my spine
a dragon around my upper right arm (haven´t found a dragon I like yet);
get my left eye-brow pierced

And I quite like Bob´s idea of the double helix dna. But that is copying, isn´t it?



Chili

Who would I be copying?

Oh! I want a tat that looks like a rip in the skin. But I'm not telling you what's gonna be underneath

Thats one thing I saw last time I was in the tattooists, Barbed wire, where it dissappears under the skin every couple of links or so and re-emerges. It looked damn good.
