Dave got this done while serving in Germany by Nikki at Dave’s Tattoos in Kaiserslaughten, which he recommends to fellow military members as a great place to get work done. He says he loves telling people he “got a busted lip down town”… yeah, haha, very funny.
My friend Angelo from Sao Paulo, Brasil shows how they scalpel labrets down south… with a katana!
Ryan (PBA) sends in a photo of the new tattoo on his thigh, describing it as “another masterpiece by Nick Kelley, the man that brought you the celtic Colonel Sanders.”
This customer of Anj’s, a regular at High Priestess in Eugene, OR, now has a big pierced cock that hangs below his knee — “He has a PA, and he wanted his cock to have a pierced head, just like his ‘real’ one does.”
Sean sent me this picture of a tattoo he got for the joke band he’s in with his two best friends — “Daughter Slaughter” (which they translate into Latin as “Filia Caedus Caedes”). Anyway, the reason I’m posting it is the photo got me thinking that there are some modifications that force an inherently humorous moment a la the left half of the picture. Guiche piercing is up there as well… Especially for piercers that make their clients get on all fours on the bench.
Oh my God I love this!!! Meaghan was getting her chestpiece touched up recently, and she was chatting with her artist about things that would be funny tattoos. And, as often happens in these situations, a spur of the moment tattoo ensued…
Being a big Simpsons fan, I mentioned the episode “Bart of Darkness,” where Bart breaks his leg and Milhouse signs his cast “Milpool” and runs off to go swimming. We were both laughing so hard about it that I insisted on getting it tattooed on me there and then. Now, every time I look at it, I crack up.
Definitely one of the more obscure Simpsons tattoos out there… But Caitlin and I — who both got a laugh when this popped up on my screen yesterday — agree; very funny.
John cut off his nipples, cast them in resin, and wears them in his ears. This is the body modification equivalent of a fly in amber I suppose.

Bme has got to be the most fucked up shit I have ever seen in my life! All is not lost though, as this is just a symptom of the impending end of mankind polluting this planet with its sickness. This planet will be better off without us, if this is how people reach enlightenment.
P.S. Fuck you and get a life
Well Randy, sorry your evening foray into edgy porn moved a little too far into the wild world of BME, but I do commend you on reaching the conclusion that the planet will be better off without you.
My friend Stella in Switzerland found this advertising postcard in Italy, which reads “Ora puoi farti vedere da tutti” — “Now you can show yourself to everybody”. Now, it’s not that uncommon to see advertising with tattoos in it of course, so what I’m really loving is that it’s got a gay bear spin on it!
