Freaking A----There's more than one type of down there piercing? I need to get out more. I can sort of picture the "hood" piercing, but when you say the full on shebang, I'm lost. Where else would you pierce? Although (since most of us smutty fanfic girls are reading it) in Clipped Wings and Inked Armor our Tatward wants to pierce a lip on Bells---down there. So I suppose you could do that.
I agree with you---if you have to ask why, then you probably shouldn't get it pierced. The fanfic writer is making it seem like by piercing the kitty that it's now a magical place in Narnia, so that everytime it's touched, rainbows shoot out or something. I was just perplexed because I know people who have pierced the nips and they say it's not that much more sensitive. If anything, it makes it less sensitive they say.
Yep I take back all I said about Vampire Diaries being a rip off of Twilight since the books came out way before Twilight did. But the show is soooooo like watching Twilight. I suppose with any Genre you get overlap, but some of it seems way too close for me to enjoy.
We have a bunch of newbies on and I take this time to formally apologize for not intro-ing myself. You know what----it's been a bit, so maybe we should all just take a few seconds and say a bit about us. I don't know what half of you guys do in RL, so this might be nice.

Slave to da man? : Yes, I am a Financial Analyst for a Bank that ends with "Of America". I hate math, so yeah, perfect.
Spawn?: Yep---A 2.5 terror named Lulu and Alice Rose (guess why) on her way in December.
Doing anyone? : A husband, Hubs, who is a Dallas actor and marionette puppeteer.
Tats/Piercings: One tat, which I totally regret---tramp stamp on lower back of a butterfly---and I had a pierced eyebrow at 17 until it caught on a pillow while sleeping and I ripped it out. Ouch.
Attracted to: Sons of Anarchy-type guys, big dudes who ride motorcycles and have tats and who look mean; also attacted to nerdy bookworms who are smart hot (i.e. That Gube dude on Criminal Minds) and wear glasses; guys in cowboy hats and boots. Ugh---any dude really.
Turn offs : Extreme Christians (your views are yours, not mine, so don't push), discrimination, that jello stuff with things floating in it, cat and dog hair (i don't own pets for this reason), Jon Gosselin lol.
TV Watching: 30 Rock, The Office, Top Chef, Hung, True Blood
Reading: Smutty fanfic, fluffy Jane Green books from time to time, anything Halls recommends
Lex member you want to recommend....maybe Pharmer because he's the one that perplexes me the most. He's like some undercover agent who knows everything. Sort of Doogie-meets-LA Ink. He can interpret your dream, tell you all about the newest diabetic drugs all while piercing your kitty lmao.
Favorite movie of all time: TIE-Urban Cowboy-For Keeps (best Molly Ringwald movie ever)-Labrinyth (david bowie in tights was my first love)
Tag---you are it.
Obs, just to clarify - i RECEIVE tattoos, and i GIVE piercings.
I'm not artistic enough to do tatooing, and I don't like getting piercings (the only piercing I ever had I did to myself as a test run for a new type called a surface piercing. Basically a piercing that can go anywhere you like - in my case, on my shin. Didn't last long because I absent-mindedly scratched it and ripped it out).
On the day you made this post, I had 4 piercing customers, getting a total of 8 piercings.
The first was a girl getting a simple labet (bottom lip, in the centre, below the lip line). Went well.
The last two were tongue piercings, and they came in together. The first girl told the second girl that it didn't hurt at all, then told her she totally lied when it was over, just so she didn't chicken out. Funny thing is, for the second girl, it actually was pain free (yes, I'm just that good . . . . . . or at least the anaesthetic gel is!)
Notice i skipped over the second girl?
She got 6 piercings, all in her ears. Two as her second set in her lobes (ie, she had existing lobe piercings), then on the right ear, 4 more going up around the cartilage of the pinna, in the section known as the scapha -
she had steel for the lobes, and alternating red stone and steel for the scapha.
Problem was, she passed out in the middle of the fourth piercing. It tends to happen from time to time, especially since it can be a little daunting having 6 needles sitting out in front of you.
Anyway, she'll come back in a few weeks when the hole of the 4th needle heals (I couldn't put the jewellery in while she was all floppy), and I'll finish them off for her.
Funny thing is, it's usually the dudes who pass out, not the chicks (even if she was only 15).
As for the more **personal** types of piercings, I don't make a habit of doing them, because the majority of my customers are not into such commitments. I can provide a diagram like the ear above of the types that can be done, but I'd need a bunch of you guys to say you are cool with that first (and plus, it might be against the terms of the site .. . . . unsure).
If I can't post it, I could PM i suppose.

why get them? well, i think in most cases if you can't answer that question, then it should never ever ever be considered. Just like tattoos or ear piercings, if it doesn't mean something important to you, then it's not something that should be done. There is reports of it enhancing sexual experiences, but IMO, if your doing everything right, it shouldn't be able to be enhanced any further anyway . . . .
Oh my goodness, this cracked me up Pharmer! Valid comments about why to get them me thinks! Thanks for the chuckle.
And OH YEAH!!! Super excited!!! PARAMORE ARE COMING TO TOWN!!! December baby! Am going to go with my neighbour L, her mates, probably J, and anyone else who wants to come along! Getting tix as soon as I know who's coming!
OK, that's my news that I can think of!
I recon the final sentence of what your quoted me as saying is the most relevant of all!
Also, Paramore, f'ing A. I'm gonna try and organise babysitters etc when they come to Australia. Paramore and Metallica are the onlys ones at the moment that I'll take this trouble for, until the kids are old enough to be left alone by themselves.
@MRK Dude, harsh. Hope it works out ok with either a quick move to a good (or better) job, or they reign in some new clients.

Slave to da man? : Yes & No. I’m a pharmacist, and manage the pharmacy i work in (when the owners aren't hanging around and butting in), but I also run a website for reviewing music (www.heavymetalnation.com), and a web-design company (www.upstartdesigns.com). The second one pays me nothing, the third one gives me about $500 or so a month, so I guess I still slaving away, but #1 pays me well enough that the $500 from web design can be spent completely on CDs and what-not.
Spawn?: 2. Version 1.0 is 7 years old, Version 2.0 is 4 years old. Both XX Chromosomes.
Doing anyone? : Married (while that does not automatically mean that any "doing" is occuring, it is in this case)
Tats/Piercings: Yup/Nup. Tattoos include the right-arm sleeve posted recently, burning match on my left inner wrist, glow-under-UV infinity symbol in black field below the match, skull with winged helmet on my left foot, same on right foot, but the skull is a woman's head, and on my back is a large skull with a halo of guitar necks and ivy; coming out of the bottom are two arms (which have their own tattoos, a flame theme on the left and old-school skulls and stuff on the right), each holding a burning drum stick and making the heavy metal horns with the hands.
Attracted to: the perfect woman (for the record, this is dark hair, blue eyes, strong will yet a little shy, takes no Vulgar Language is Ugly, little bit shorter than me, looks beautiful yet can't see it herself). In other words, my wife.
Turn offs : people, generally. I'm a fairly independant-type personality. I'm not anti-social so much as pro-isolation. I don't like bigotry, and I also don't like when minorities act entitled to different treatment. Everyone should be equal.
TV Watching: vampire stuff. Sci fi stuff is usually good too. I tend to spend more time online though. I'll usually give most things a chance, and judge them harshly if they don't live up to expectations.
Reading: a little-known series about some dude named Potter.
Lex member you want to recommend: depends on what you want a recommendation on. Everyones got their quirks and interesting points. I go through stages of looking out for specific post-makers, but I like to read through everyone's rants, thoughts, tirades, troubles, triumphs and brain-failures equally.
Favorite movie of all time: duuude, that's hard. I like so many different genres, it's hard to even pick a single genre to say, let alone a single movie. How about looking forward to? Other than New Moon, at the moment, Avatar is looking sweet.
