The Amber of the Moment


Tam checks in with this chilling photo featuring him doing battle with nature’s Chinese Finger Trap. He’s not in a hurry to get out, though, so maybe don’t rush to get the tub of Crisco just yet.

(Click through for the whole megillah, obviously.)

The Great Negra Nipple Debate


Good afternoon, ModBloggers! Hope the day finds you well. Our returning champion, La Negra, checks in with these photos that should either settle a long-running debate or extend it indefinitely—the debate, of course, being one that centers around the question, “Say, don’t La Negra’s various sets of implants look like little boobs?” Well, with the help of some space-age polymers (and surprisingly little macaroni and white glue), she has affixed said implants with what appear to be, y’know, little nipples. You be the judge.

A shot of some breast sewing (involving her real breasts), after the jump.

Master Bait

None of my trademark music this time, the clapping and laughing says it all..

Just a good old fashioned video of Damien suspending (vaguely reminiscent of this, no?) with The Hanged Man Team during a “Live Bait” in Melbourne, Australia.

Many thanks to Pete (The Piercing Urge) for sending the videos my way..

Kicked by Snark


So, i’ll confess that, upon seeing this tattoo, my initial reaction was something along the lines of, “Well, that’s … literal.” And then I noticed “xkcd” in the image information, and realized … I’m just a jackass. Context, after the jump.

(Tattoo by “The dude that lives in Thailand” at Wild Tattoo, somewhere in Sweden.)

Sammy & Sid

Here’s another lovely (and thought-provoking) video courtesy of Shawn (more).. Read on Macduff!

“I dug this footage up when I was preparing a class I was preparing to teach on behalf of the APP; it features Sailor Sid Diller interviewing “Tattoo Sammy” from Frankfort, West Germany.”

“Sammy appeared in P.F.I.Q. #18 (1983) and #19 as the magazine’s first documented tongue piercing. This clip has audio and video glitches (that Roo was kind enough to clean up to the best of his ability) present in the original VHS; that’s why these are so important to share. Once the original masters degrade – this stuff could be lost forever. I hope you guys are enjoying these glimpses into our not so distant past!

Enjoy! – Shawn”

Photoshopped!


So, when we got this photo from Matthias, something seemed a little fishy, a little off. Were his lobes fake? No, no. The white background brightened a bit too much? Nah. And that’s when we realized…tricky bastard Photoshopped urine in place of beer in that gigantic mug. April Fools! Really though, get off the Internet right now before that goddamn Internet worm finds you and molests the shit out of your computers.

The Crack in the Sky


I can already hear the odd complainer arguing that this picture shouldn’t be here because, oh no, he only has a single lip piercing! That’s not worthy of ModBlog! Well, allow me to retort: Yes, yes it is. And when that lip piercing is being worn by a gentleman in the midst of what is clearly a glorious metal photo shoot? You better believe that’s going on ModBlog. Ten points to anyone who comments using only Mastodon lyrics.
