Nooooooooooooooooooot
I find that soooo icky.
Yes, yes I know, how very middle school of me to call it icky, but yeah, it definitely is.

Posted: 4/23/05 at 4:18pmI used to think they were disgusting, but when I went to get my tattoo, this guy working there had gauged his ears and had a open circle plug in them with a ring through that. It was really hot. Or rather HE was really hot, so the gauged ears didn't bother me.

Posted: 4/24/05 at 2:23amMine are size 0, and you can't even tell with the plugs I have. I do have to admit that the monkey looking ears are not hot.

Plugs don't bother me.
The gauging with open rings scares the hell out of me.
*shudder*
That, and facial tattoos.
I can't help it.

Posted: 4/24/05 at 9:42amDefinitely a not for me. They freak the hell out of me! I just imagine (the really large ones, at least) getting hooked on something and ripping, or just kind of giving out in their old age. *shudder* Chalk it up to being yet another quirky bodily thing that freaks me out...right up there w/ protruding veins (you know when they really stick out on older people's hands? They just seem so exposed and vulnerable) and the thought of loosing a fingernail or a toenail (I was always nervous about that somewhere in the back of my mind playing field hockey; getting a swift knock to the thumb w/ a stick and loosing a fingernail or something! Blech!!!)

Posted: 4/24/05 at 8:58pmYeah, I had the tunnels in for awhile....bad bad bad idea. If you're not on top of cleaning the hell out of them....*shudder* Gauging is something you should really take seriously and think of the consequences, and so many young kids try to jump from the regular post size (18 g) to like, 4 g in 2 weeks. Such a bad idea! I'm pretty much guaranteed that my ears will grow back relatively to normal...probably to like a 12-14 g or something, not too bad. If I sleep without them for a night or two, they shrink a size. Everybody's different.
