Well, I mean, if you can think of a better place to keep your pens, I’d love to hear it.
(That’d be Nuder Than Nude, playing with his new above-the-scrotum urethral reroute. There’s actually a really great discussion going on in the comments of the last urethral reroute post, with Nuder Than Nude at the center of it. Highly recommended reading.)
Oh, hello! Welcome to ModBlog’s award-winning “Mustache Thursday,” wherein we celebrate the finest in mustaches belong to members of our beloved body modification community. Today’s featured soup strainer belongs to the lovely Dee, who was last seen here melting our minds with this piece. It’s funny—in my experience, it hasn’t been uncommon to hear people claim that septum piercings, by and large, make people seem more intimidating than any single other facial piercing. At the same time, though…they enable you to do stuff like this. Which is kind of the opposite of intimidating.
More photographic evidence, after the jump.

Well that was a fun day, no? Pretty people, a cute puppy, and the glorious return of the Fire Joe Morgan-style article takedown; as far as I’m concerned, a day like that deserves a crown on top. Now, I know I had to eat some shit the last time I posted a photo of a microdermal augmenting a tattoo, but I think this piece is a little more nicely executed, and maybe makes a bit more sense conceptually. Wear it well, ModBloggers.
Until tomorrow.

I have to admit, I’m still sometimes amazed by the radically different ways in which people may develop scars as a result of cuttings. Here we’ve got a pair (actually, a trio) of cuttings that illustrate this nicely. Up above is a scarification piece by Wendi from Ann Arbor, one year old at this point—healing well and evenly, leaving a somewhat faint scar. After the jump, another pair of cuttings by Wendi that took a wildly different turn.
Night and day? Night and day. The single-line around her breasts is six months old, and the lotus cutting is three months old. The wearer in this case is referred to as “my muse”—with good reason, it seems! Obviously, bits of the breast scar have underdeveloped in relation to the rest of it, but what a reaction nonetheless.

Oh, hello! Welcome to the nation’s leading renter’s insurance advice column, “PVC Wednesdays”! Today we have the lovely Cyberesque and her man, all done up in the shiny black stuff, posing at London’s Torture Garden back in 2008. Handsome couple, no? After the jump, they ditch their earthly bondage for something a little freer.

Good day, ModBloggers! I don’t know about you, but it’s kind of grey and wet and generally miserable over in these parts, and I could use a pick-me-up. What I could really go for is a picture of a pretty pierced girl making funny faces while holding an adorable dog…well holy shit, look at that! That’d be Sweet Dee, with a septum pierced by Phish while at HTC in Phoenix, Arizona, and holding onto one her apparently many heart-stabbingly cute dogs. Yeah, that’ll do nicely.
Well folks, let’s wrap things up today with the fine melange of shapes, colors and textures that comprise Jamin‘s chest, including his newly tattooed nipples—which, it turns out, were actually tattooed in tandem by Gareth and Mark from Mischief Moon in Sydney, Australia. Now, last week, we featured this backpiece in which three artists worked at one—what do you all think? Would you rather three tattoo artists drill your back at the same time, or have two go to work on your nipples? Choose wisely!
Ed. note: Sorry for this going up so late! I’d posted it earlier but accidentally under a category other than ModBlog. Forgiveness, please.
Why so sad, zombie geisha? Is it because your tear ducts are all gummed up with blood? Because your face is looking a little torn-up? Maybe because you’re a zombie? Oh…it’s probably because you miss your old glasses, isn’t it? Yeah, you probably just miss your old glasses.
(This excellent zombie geisha is worn by pdxPIERCER and was done by Sam at Adorn East in Portland, Oregon.)

Hey, it’s Justinne, looking mighty sharp with that head of long, luscious ha—oh. Never mind. “Wearing my wig and dressed up nice,” she says, “hiding my shaved head to go job hunting.” If you’ll look after the jump, however, we have irrefutable evidence that she looks great with a shorn scalp as well. Everybody wins!

Following up on last week’s various spider endeavors, Tye sends in these photos of his brother’s new Carnage tattoo, done by the great Lila Way at her own True Grit Tattoos in Burlington, Ontario. (The shop also houses familiar faces Greg Garrett, formerly of Way Cool Oakville, Franklin Reeves and Tom Brazda.) As for the tattoo, well, it’s expertly done, but isn’t it just begging to have that infernal symbiote bond with your precious lifeforce? Hey, priorities.
