    Hey Peaceful,

    The neck piercing is just a "surface piercing." Similar to how they do the bridge of the nose. They just mark where they want to enter and exit the skin. Then clamp the skin from point A to B, allowing a little bit extra for the piercing to fit. Then stab away. The neck didn't actually hurt too much. My nose piercing is actually the worst one so far, which sorta surprised me.

    By the the way, I recently watched a pretty cool doco on body modification called "Modify." Covers most things from plastic surgery and body building to suspension piercings and voluntary amputation. One of the interesting points put forward was about possible legislation (In USA) being implemented to regulate body modification. The interviewee's main complaint was that they have the right to do what they want to their own body. And that body mods make them realize they are not under control, and that there is more to life than what we are led to believe.

    I just thought it was interesting that these ideas form a lot of what the psychedelic community stands for. And that this industry is also coming under attack from the law.

    Thanks for the replies everyone :wub: I had been waiting for some more feedback, so it's good to see people like them.

    I'll try to find some more of my favourites to put up soon.

    B. Loco - I've got no idea what makes an SLR an SLR. Like I said above I just bought one that seemed to be good for my price range

    I did find this on wiki which seems to explain the mechanisms of an SLR

    By coincidence, I've just been preparing some nettle ferts as well. Planning to put them to use in a week or so. :wink:

    I would definitely vouch for its use as a yummy food. Haven't experimented much with it, but simply wilting young shoots over a fire/stove is very nice. Wilting it over a flame(and I would assume any heat) causes the "stingy" chemicals to break down. Very scientific I know :P

    I had always wondered if it had any alkaloids present, so it's interesting that you have experimented with it PH. Every time I eat the near raw material I get a nice little "buzz" for about an hour or so.

    I put it down to simply being my body being happy for the nutrient boost, but I shall have to delve deeper.

    ive had a quite a few piercings but all have been retired (due to an opperation). in the past i sported:

    2 x 14g tragus

    14g transverse lobe

    10g septum

    2 x 14 g cartilage

    12g conch

    surface bar below navel

    surface bar in arm

    dermal anchor in arm

    0g outer conch dermal punches

    i dont have many photos of my piercings but my piercer has some of them up on their website.

    this is my retired surface bar (left and middle disk) and dermal anchor (the disk on the right)

    this is one of my 0ga outer conch punches with a 14ga tragus and other 14ga piercing

    i have plans to put tunnels back in my 0g punches and stretch my lobes to ~2g

    Thanks for sharing Genki, I really like the look of the outer conch when stretched. Looks like it hurts though :o

    Here are some additions to my "below navel" piercing that I thought was good for a laugh. haha

    I just thought I'd add some of the ones I have so far.

    In order of oldest to most recent:

    My neck and belly were only done a couple of days ago, hence the redness... :P

    Haha, I love how the one on my belly looks like a face from my POV.

    So SM are your interests in this area due to BIID or apotemnophilia? (sp?)

    Nah, I wouldn't say that I am interested in this for either of those reasons. I just really like the act of being pierced and the after glow it leaves for a day or 2. Plus, I like how piercings can accentuate a person's natural features. I really like the artistic style of tattooing. Especially when it is a custom design or just something really different.

    The main reason I got into it is because my cousin is a tattooist, and his girlfriend is a piercer.

    I get to be her practice body :D. So that's the main reason I've got so many done in the past few months.

    is muscular hypertrophy Body Modification?

    Well I s'pose it's a voluntary modification, so I'd count it under the genre.

    I've recently become pretty interested in body modification.

    I've only got a few piercings myself. Hopefully to get a tattoo soon as well.

    As the subtitle suggests, I am curious whether many other people are interested in it.

    I would love to see other people's mods (piercings/tattoos/scarification/selective amputation/etc). Or if you work in the industry, some of your work.

    The only person I have seen that has ever made reference to this on SAB was PD (I think). Posted a Tatt he did. Surely there are more?

    I'll post some of mine up once I get some pics of them.

    You didn't say what song it is? lole. Get in there my son!

    Also, anyone that is interested in metal or heavier genres should check out Soundwave this year. There's a pretty awesome line up.

    A few notable appearances:

    Meshuggah FTW!

    Isis

    Alexisonfire

    Faith No More

    Isis's new album "Wavering Radiant" has my vote, after a few brief listens. Same goes for Alexisonfire's new one "Old Crows/Young Cardinals."

    "Found out the truth - search 2012" the trailer says...well I did and here a couple things I found.

    Thank God, I was getting a little frightened there. LOL

    Interesting articles there. Thanks for posting.

    The Movie does look pretty shit though, judging from the previews. Just a doom and gloom blockbuster to scare people.

    I admittedly like the idea of some sort of world transformation for the better, but I'm not really convinced of that either.

    Oh, and District 9 ROCKS!

    Pretty much all the ones I was going to say have already been said.

    I s'pose the category is pretty open to interpretation. So here's a few more.

    Decapitated.

    Dillinger Escape Plan.

    Fantomas (Mike Patton)

    Opeth (well some of it)

    Textures

    And of course, Tool. What Holy Mountain said ^^^

    Anyone listen to this?

    Some of my favourite IDM/Glitch music has to be Aphex Twin and Squarepusher. Heaps of variety and not just "typical" psy sounds. But it has a lot off sounds that seem to fuck with my brain waves or something, really cool indeed.

    My all time favourite has to be Autechre. Some of their stuff can be a bit full on though. Verging on a wall of noise, rather than a notable rhythm or melody.

    This film clip to Gantz Graff by Autechre blows my mind. The track itself isn't the best, but the idea of matching visuals to what the music sounds like really amazes me.

    All worth listening to in altered states. :lol:

    Hahaha, I thought this was hilarious! It's obviously all just propaganda.

    I especially like the bit where the narrator says, "There are currently fifty two million Muslims in Europe. The German Government said that number is expected to double in the next twenty years......(wait for it)...... TO ONE HUNDRED AND FOUR MILLION." Haha, the expression in his voice is funny as. Not to mention the obvious stating of very simple maths.

    I don't think it's anything to worry about.
