Well his answer is pretty blunt "God is Dead" but thats a quote out of context, but he said it, that kinda way. Marylin Manson had a pile of Nietzsche is dead tees printed, something I quite enjoyed.

To be fair, the people who know me well will get it, the others I shant entertain

I'd be pretty content to answer them to be honest, there a few set people i WILL NOT discuss beliefs with, that being some relatives, complete strangers and priests, just the way it goes.

I'd say priests deal with the loss of faith fairly regularly, I just dont want to deal with it.

tbh my mum is pretty aware, like her telling me to pray about some bollócks or go to mass I tell her to feck off (Essentially

)

My grannies on the other hand, why earlier today she called Stephen Hawkings the antichrist, no too sure of the context of that statement, but she's a bit odd. My other granny, well she "Worries" about me, and didnt like me when I had shoulder length hair

One girl in my class in 5th year (i think) got this celtic swirly type thing from her hips continuing down and inwards right down underneath to...herself.

I don't know how anyone could possibly get that done. Imagine somebody coming at your gee with a giant ink-filled needle? *shudder*

I like tattoos though. My sister has a gorgeous that she designed herself - it's a butterfly with a treble and bass clef on the wings and a sharp and a flat on the ends of the antennae. It's deadly. Wouldn't have the nerve to get one myself mind you...

id get a piercing before id get a tatoo just because i can take them out.
want to get my nape and belly button done.and ive wanted them for years so i know it isnt just a phase.

just be warned, nape piercing, like most surface piercings, requires months, if not years of love, care, and getting pissed off. i've had mine a couple of years now, and it's still crusty, and still gets caught in my hair when it's tied up, and still has to be salt soaked. no swimming pools, no spontaneous swimming in rivers/lakes, no exposing it to the sun, blah blah...

you'd be surprised, i used to work for a priest, and we'd some really really enlightening conversations and lots of discussions about that stuff. don't judge books by the covers! :P (oh yeah, and im an atheist).

i duno... quick in and out... or a few hours down there...

ink would look cooler, but piercing woudl be a more pleasant experience.

Insect Overlord · 16-12-2008 11:26am

Wow, this forum rules. There's people talking about Nietzsche! You guys have no idea how proud I am right now

I would be disowned if I ever got a tatoo. I've never seen the appeal in them really, especially the way my mood about things can change drastically over time. As for piercings, I would consider getting something done, but I don't know what!

My younger brother (he's 19 now) got his left nipple pierced a few years ago. He successfully hid it from our parents for a year and a half!

JC 2K3 · 16-12-2008 2:25pm

Body modification of any kind never really interested me at all.

I mean, I think some things other people have done look great (although many look utterly ridiculous), but not for me, thanks.

When I was 14/15 I had this big long list of various piercings I wanted to get. Thank God I'd have to wait until I'm 18 as I want none of them now, whereas before I had my heart set on all manner of metal sticking out of me!

donmeister · 17-12-2008 1:24am

I got my ear pierced twice when I was about 15-16,its silly now when I think of it,but screw it,whats done is done.

I wanna get a few tattoo's though....not a million crappy lil ones,but just 2-3 that are really well done and are meaningful.

On a tangent one of my friends did get his nipple pierced on holiday,just for a laugh.What a dumbass,hehe

No,what I meant is that I got it done,just to be 'cool',how wrong I was....lol piercings are good though...except the eyebrow,ugh

Kersmash · 17-12-2008 1:49am

Ah cool. Not a huge fan of eyebrow piercings. Anti-Eyebrows are unreal though!

Davidius · 17-12-2008 1:53am

I really don't like the idea of body modification. I simply can't see why anybody would do it. Not one reason that I could properly understand, it's just weird.

Also the sight of piercings makes me feel sick, especially the more odd ones.

Well for most people it's for the aesthetic value, a sense of indiviluality or that that modification symbolises something dear to them. It's not everybodies cup of tea and thats fair enough!

Why do piercings make you sick though?

haha, i surf, but the water in christchurch is cleaner than anywhere the east coast of ireland. keeps them pretty clean, but man, do they take effort. i've one on my nape, and two on the front of my neck (which probably ownt last, but they were a fun experiment while they lasted).

No idea. I just can't look at them without feeling at least a tiny bit nauseous.

Same! Now all I have is my ear lobes pierced, and I'm very glad I did nothing else! I'd look so weird with metal bits and bobs everywhere!

I'd agree, I think scarification looks beautiful when fresh, but alot of the time it doesn't look great healed. That said I have seen some really nice ones. It also heavily depends on the type of scarification I reckon, and if you use ash/ink rubbing.

TY, 16 year old scumbag (no other way to describe him) got the skeleton (exactly as it is in the body) onto his back, including spine, shoulderblates, the works, just like looking at an x-ray.

Fúcking muppet of the highest order.

At least it's more original than stars.

I know someone who had to burn an ink rubbing on her hand off with a hair straightener, not fun.

If its just an outline and done really really precisely it cant look alright long term but I doubt it happens all that often.
