Up top? That’s Cory, who sends in a set of photos shot by his friend, Brian Gurnee. The train tracks you see are allegedly haunted by The Hookerman, though luckily, neither Cory nor Brian were, what, hooked? Hookered? Either way, glad you’re safe, gents.
More shots, after the jump.

Hey, so, first things first, this here is a band from scenic Canada, North America, called The Ending, who have just filmed the fancy video for their song “Freakshow” that you see above. Now, normally, we don’t give preferential promotional space to bands (other than Pearl Jam, who I will promote forever and so help me God you will like it), but what do you know, they’ve got people doing all sorts of fun sideshow stuff in the video! Also, it features BME super-hunks Orbax, Sweet Pepper Klopek and Russ Foxx! Go look at your friends, people.
Moving right along, how would you like to be on television? Specifically, MTV? Well, here’s some pertinent information!
MTV’s True Life is casting for an upcoming episode and seeks young people, 16-26, at odds with their parents over their relationship; mainly because of their significant other’s interest in tattoos or body modification.
You can email your situation to [email protected], and be sure to include your name, age, location, phone number, and recent photo of yourself.
If anyone who reads this is featured on the show, please do everything you can to infiltrate MTV and punch everyone on The Hills in the balls.
And finally, apparently Playboy is too fancy to allow embedding of their videos, but this here is some kinda folk song dedicated to the Denver Nuggets and their tattoos. The Nuggets, who advanced to the NBA’s Western Conference Finals last night, are pretty much, to a person, covered from elbow to asshole in tattoos. The song isn’t hilarious, but hey, sports + tattoos + acoustic guitar + Playboy = Welcome to ModBlog!
The last time we saw Brooklynn, it looked liked she was on her way out. Well, thankfully, she’s come back to us, and she’s sporting some fancy Gorilla Glass plugs to boot. A triumphant return, indeed.

Greetings, ModBloggers! Let’s kick off the day with Alex’s nicely healed pointed ears, as pointed by the man with Brooklyn’s shiniest scalp, xPUREx. This is a pretty dramatic pointing, but these photos were taken a year after the procedure and, near as we can tell, no complaints. Huzzah.

Well, folks, let’s wrap things up with some good old fashioned nightmare fuel. The piece you see above is worn by Dee, and it looks like someone took an old-school wall of flash, threw it in a blender with a few ounces of peyote and let nature take its course. In an excellent way, of course. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to take a cold shower. The coldest.
Until tomorrow, ModBloggers.

Well, here is some typical European vulgarity, courtesy of known curse word aficionado Lionel from Out Of Step (more), who is just tremendous. Now, you may ask yourself, “Why is some waffle-faced puppet walking a tightrope with an umbrella that keeps the rain in, apparently, while wearing a smock that reads ‘Go fuck yourself’ in Lucifer’s preferred tongue (French)?” And the answer, of course, is…magic?
I really like this approach to your everyday pirate ship by Shawn Carrier at The Ink Spot in Ottawa, Ontario. Wait, now that America (and by extension, the world) is under attack by actual pirates, all the time, is being a fan of the old school “Argh, matey!” pirates somehow uncouth? Should it be? This is a debate that needs to happen. What say you, ModBloggers?

In the future, after the last newspaper has burned, the Internet has eaten itself and various Twitter and Tumblr robots murder each other in the streets all day, every day, we will have no choice but to get our news from the tattoos of the townsfolk. Adam is just setting the pace with this combination Swine/Avian Flu (“Flying Pig Flu,” of course) tattoo, which will undoubtedly be the final straw for humanity. Either that or some sort of Scientologist dinosaur meteor. If you only bet on one apocalypse scenario today, make it one of these. Thank you for your continued support of BME Casinos. We’ll see you tomorrow.

As part of our continuing mission to bring you the best in healed and healing scarification pieces, here’s a fancy update to this facial flesh-removal on Reece by Iestyn a little while back. It’s no big surprise coming from Iestyn, but the healing seems to be coming along quite nicely. We’re not sure what else Reece has planned (tattooing over the scars a la Lucky Diamond Rich, for example), but we’re definitely curious to see how his appearance progresses from here on out.
And, of course, after the jump…lion-face.

The ModBlog rule, from time immemorial, has been if you can’t tell what something is…it’s probably a penis. It’s a versatile appendage, after all. It can be sliced, flayed, twisted and contorted in a multitude of ways—almost all of which have been featured here at some point. With that in mind, we present this week’s installment of America’s fastest-growing vegetarian cuisine program, “Guess What?” Is it a penis? Probably. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try to guess how it’s been manipulated! Especially since the first person to guess correctly will win a brand new car!*
