The Top 40

Grief tats trumps face piercing for the complete renunciation of social aesthetics and decorum.

Seriously. Have you ever seen someone with the names and or faces and date of their deaths tattooed on some very prominently exposed portion of flesh, Gerard?

These pierced individuals appear to have rummaged through an old fishing tackle box with their faces. Helen Thomas looked better.

Hook up points for jumper cables.

Have no problem with what anyone wants to do to their body. However, I find that I avoid having any conversations with anyone who has facial piercings. Tattoos are something else. Love them. Done well, they are a work of art expressing that person's individuality.

Tongue piercings are the absolutely second worst. I'll leave it to your imaginations as to what the truly worst places are for piercings (yes, "there.")

But to encounter an attractive young woman who has a pearl stud in her tongue is beyond disconcerting.

I don't even dislike tattoos.They are not art. They are doodles. They are an insult to true Art. And the human body cannot be improved upon. Which is why tattoos always look out of place on the body.

We can't change a tattoo, when we change our hair, our clothes, our vocations, our wives, and our opinions. It doesn't make any sense. I'd be wearing seventies cloths, shaggy hair, playing the violin, married to a bitch from hell, and voting Democrat.

Well James, tats change. That tiny tat on the hard body that looked so hot will make one barf when viewed on the 45 yo spandex swathed porky tart.

Mr. Woodchuck, I do believe the cold winters in Vermont froze off part of your brain cells. You sound very antediluvian.

Well you saw some of those tattooed tarts in the Wal-Mart photos.
That once delicate Chinese tat that said "beef with sprouts", now is huge enough to show "Map of Hong Kong".
