Septum Piercings: Agony and Ecstasy


I remember getting my septum pierced, several thousand years ago, squirming in my chair the piercing shop, abjectly terrified of the pain that I’d been repeatedly assured I’d endure, surrounded by friends I was convinced were losing massive amounts of respect for me by the second. And then … it was over, and I couldn’t help but smile. It’s hard not to think of that when I see Amelie up there going through a similar experience:

Just the feeling when you arrive to the shop. You sit down, meanwhile he does the preparation … when the butterflies sort of start tumbling in my belly, when he marks out where the piercing will be, when he grabs the forceps and puts it into place and then he grabs the needle and when the word comes:

“And breathe in,” he checks that it will go through right. “And exhale.”

If the adrenaline wasn’t already pumping it EXPLODES and the feeling is ecstatic. No pain — just an amazing feeling which I can’t live without.

The Soul to Feel the Flesh


Good morning, ModBlog! Here we’ve got a shot of the lovely latexninja from, I believe, the same photoshoot that produced this untamed filth. Luckily, this time around it’s just harmless nudity as opposed to vicious pornography, right? Another tasteful nude, after the jump.

This Week in BME


And finally, to celebrate Toronto’s record-breaking heat today, here’s a shot of the lovely clockorange doing her best impression of a palm tree after doing some light dreadlock maintenance.

Kind of a big week around these parts. In case you missed it:

We were cold killin’ unicorns.

Pretty women wore nightmarish animal heads.

We saw the Fnords. (Or did we?)

BME Shop now features 25 percent more penis owls.

The BME Podcast arrived, featuring very special guest Allen Falkner!

A couple of dudes showed off their pussies, what’s the big deal?

And that is that, friends. We’ll be here over the weekend and should have a new article for you at some point, and if all goes well, another podcast early next week. Until then, enjoy Watchmen, give Rampage your love, be safe and, as always, thank you for your continued support of BME.

Here is Your Life


Hey, smiley! That’d be Lucky Diamond Rich, the most tattooed man in the world, getting worked on by Adam Craft at Illicit Tattoo in Auckland, New Zealand. What helps Rich substantiate the claim of being the “most tattooed” is the fact that he’s gotten layers upon layers of tattoo work—this may be apocryphal, but I seem to remember hearing that in some places, he’s got as many as seven layers that he’s acquired over the years. After the jump, his latest addition.

Weather Changes Moods


The last time we featured Rachel, she was just cold layin’ in the tub, covered in pomegranate seeds, acting as the physical manifestation of complex math theories. This time, well, she’s showing off her fancy new scarification piece by Charles Finnie at Eye of the Lotus in Edmonton, Alberta.

EDIT: Whoops! This cutting is actually on Zara, and Rachel just took the pictures. Thank you to the several thousand people who declined the opportunity to call me a jackass and very graciously corrected me.
