Another thing i don’t understand and i think may be a sign of aging are those piercing ‘young’ people that expands your earlobe so that essentially there is a HUGE hole in their ear…. WHY?
If it satisfies a cultural norm; something expected of you from your remote African tribe than who am i to jude – this is what your tribe does… BUT we are NOT a Zulu tribe – last time i checked it was not part of western culture to have said piercings… but aside from that – they’re hardly bloody attractive! In fact – when i DO see someone with one of those HUGE holes in their ears i have an overwhelming urge to see how good my aim is try and throw something through it!
I once got to chatting to a fool person who had one of these piercings (in both ears with big metal ‘O-Rings’ in them) and had to ask a pertinent questions: “when you eventually want to take out the ring, will your earlobes eventually ‘shrink’ back to size?”
I was essentially told “no”… so does this mean that we are destined to see a WHOLE group of people in nursing homes/retirement villages or on the pension or in the park in 40years to come sitting there watching their grand kids play in the park with their walking stick along side of them AND these huge holes in their earlobes?
Am i the only one who thinks this trend is plain dumb?
Do men find this attractive?
oh la la - what big 'holey' earlobes you have!

Yeah, it’s gross. I know a lady who once had plugs roughly the size of dimes in her ears. She has since converted (reverted) and has let her ear holes relax, and wears studs the size equivalent of 2C diamonds. I don’t know her well enough to ask about her ear holes, if she’s had them stitched up or not, and I’ve not seen her without her earrings either.
I have a feeling there will be a lot of lobuloplasty ads in the near future, just like tattoo removal ads nowadays.

They’re trashy along the same lines as too many facial piercings and ridiculous tattoos. It’s their way of “rebelling” against society (their parents) and showing what an individual they are. Pass.

Oh man… this just LOOKS painful! I also saw one woman with a pin through her lips and I was like… when was this a good idea?
