Sweet! Where the fark is mine??

So, that means you could have part of the "two chicks at the same time" experience without the million bucks?

/Lawrence approves

I've had mine for 10 years now, never chipped a tooth, still have the one tongue, no infections, and my gums are not receding... I think the location is key, mine is far back enough that it wouldn't do anything to my gums.

had a tongue piercing for over 7 years now and nary a problem described. woot.

Oh Jesus farking Christ. Can we please just be left alone? Those of us who like piercings will get piercings in peace, and those of you who don't like piercings won't get them. Okay? Because telling yourselves these scary ghost stories over and over is some really messed up, morbid masturbation.

Best use of Cool tag yet.

All piercings should be punishable by jailtime.

/useless without pics

I've had my tongue pierced for about 4 weeks now and it feels fine.

So if I get my nose pierced, will I get two noses?
Hey wait! My wife's ears are pierced, and she has two of them!!

What?

But then how will groups of teeny twits ever look 'bad' for the camera?

what happens if you get your dick pierced?

I wanna pierce my tongue, it doesn't hurt, it feels fine...

I just pierced my wallet with a nail. This better work.

What about piercing your PV?

tongue pierced at 16, habit of running the barbell back & forth across the bottom front 6 teeth (front & back), now have receeding gums (where the 6 teeth are & 2 chipped molers

loved that piercing... hated the lisp!!

also had both eyebrows & 4 earlobe piercings
all got infected

Bastard!!!!

Tongue

What the hell were you doing, rolling around in dog crap?

I don't do a damn thing to clean my piercings outside of showering with the rest of my body, and I've never had an infection. I got frostbite in one while waiting to see the World Series trophy this past December, but still, no infection.

Tongue piercing could cause you to grow a second tongue.
It can also cause you to be accused of being a whore.
It can lead to a lack of employability or promotability.
It can cause you to look like a piece of trailor trash.

My niece just threw her toungue stud out this week. She has a raging fungus infection in her mouth because of it. And she has a fairly deep pocket formed on the top of the tongue, that is to say, a skin sack extending from the rear of the piercing where the top layer (corium) of skin came loose from the interior (superior lingualis) of the tongue. She has to use a louzenge several times a day to reduce the infection and is not out of the woods yet. And her an emergency room nurse student/trainee.

/Maybe I can get a picture of this and post it.

SecretAgentWoman: Kanemano: what happens if you get your dick pierced?

You pee out of three holes at once.


so, no hope for the double dong?

Maybe if you put your tongue in really dirty places.


Feh. I maintained 2 tongue piercings for a while with no problems. Down to the one now, it's been in for 8 years. No problems at all.

Kanemano: so, no hope for the double dong?

I don't know why you would hope for something like that...

So much for getting my tongue pierced.

DP? Not that there's anything wrong with that...
/obligatory

2nd tongue?

O RLY?

/boy, the freaky girls would REALLY come at me then.

loved that piercing... hated the lisp!!

What the...? Did you have a horrendously large-gauged post in there or something?

I've had mine in for a meager two years, but other than two slightly worn teeth (where I have a habit of clamping my teeth down on the ball), I've had no problems.

And I smoke! Directly after getting it done, too! I also went for a curry!

Nothing stops me from killing myself slowly.

Also, who said about lowering your chances of employment? A tongue piercing is incredibly unobtrusive to the outside observer, and apart from the initial period of swelling, drooling and staring angrily at any food substance other than soup, nobody would know you had one unless you wanted them to.

/Works as a programmer
//Just got promoted
///Has four tattoos, too
////IN YOUR FACE, SYSTEM! HA HA HA!

I heard a forked tongue gets you free admission to the premiere of "Snakes On A Plane".

I just noticed there has been no reference to being bi-linugual in this thread.

/Or is it just the Candian whiskey working it's charm?

Sweet Jeebus, I gotta get a spell checker! episteme : Yeah baby. That's what I'm talking about. Nice juicy stuff there. Great photos. Maybe one of them can be a Photoshop (GIMP) contest subject.

I see tongue piercing to be like AIDS. Have unprotected sex and maybe nothing happens. Have a piercing where there was not a plan to put in a hole and maybe nothing happens, and then again maybe it does.

that is sooooo not a second tongue. it's wart sized.

garbage.

just when i was starting to trust the hindustan times....

But...but...but.. it's what defines me as a person...

Odd, the FA made it seem like this would be a bad thing somehow...

Tatood man speak with forked tongue

/or is it farked tongue

Epistem's great and very graphic link was brought to you by Doctor Neiburger.

///It looks more like a tongue burger to me...

Whoops! Spelt EPISTEME- Sorry there

I heard a forked tongue gets you free admission to the premiere of "Snakes On A Plane".

Oo, boonfarker , if that's true, I'm so there, dude!

AutomaticHatstand: ////IN YOUR FACE, SYSTEM! HA HA HA!

Such a rebel.

I bet you listen to that daring rock 'n roll too.

Got mine in 1995, before everyone and their redneck cousin on Jerry Springer started getting them. My parents freaked out, my father mentioned it to some guys he worked with -- and they told him it meant I was a lesbian. Ha ha!

Never had any problems with the piercing though. Forget it's even there most of the time. Maybe some people are just prone to infections?

If you grow another tongue after peircing it....what else could you 'double' with a peircing?????

I've had one for a year, no issues. I have allways been prone to skin tags on the bottom of my tongue, though. Those look more like little tentacles though, and go away with a dab of medicine. :P

I seccond an above post: people that would get it won't be swayed, and the people that won't don't need to be telling each other these urban legends.

Though I do despise anyone that goes around showing the damn thing off. Makes me want to snatch and yank the thing.

Uh, 1999 called and they want their tongue jewlery back.

Put down your copy of "Modern Primitive" and look around. The fad has run its course.

/not from tongue piercing
//not me

Great - an additional tongue for these wankers to choke on when they pass out.
