Alright look

recordshopjayy:

People wanna be stuck up bitches because DAMN NEAR ALL of the population call stretched ears “Gauges?” Look you bitches, can you fucking blame them? That’s kind of what they’re listed as in stores and online. I mean seriously, shut the fuck up and think about it. Yes, most of us are AWARE that’s not what they called but it’s better than going up to someone and going “Excuse me, what size are your stretched ears? two inch you say? well ma’am, your 2 in ears are lovely.” Yeah. yeah that makes a hell of a lot of fucking sense.

We get it. It’s not what they’re called. It’s just fucking easier.

Get the fuck off your god damn high horses and shut the fuck up. 

I dont sit there and say “oh no, sir, that’s not a tattoo, that is a lovely ink portrait of a fish upon your arm. I quite enjoy it.”

No. I say “Wow, sir, that’s a nice tattoo.”

Whores. 

Possibly one of the worst, and most hilarious arguments for ‘gauging’ we’ve ever seen!

Brb guys, just going to millimeter my ears, go for a quick mile, and then head down to the pub for a litre with Scott.

And how on earth is one two-syllable word harder to say than another, two-syllable word?

And we like being on our high horses. Why? Because we’re right.

Brb, time for a litre.

Okay Followers, I need help! I just stretched my ears from a 16 to a 8 yesterday. It hurt, whatever, it normally kinda does. I took them out today to clean my tappers off and my ears started bleeding…help me. Why is it doing this?

What’s awful: A jump of 3 entire sizes. And bleeding. Remember the great bit list of things your ears should never do whilst being stretched? BLEEDING IS ONE OF THEM. Take everything out, read our guide (here), wait 6 months, and start again slowly and properly.

Bad news, my right gauge got super infected and I had to take it out. It is now a gross mess of nastiness. WARNING: GOREY lol

Gauging up! From a 6 to a 4. Hurts like hell…haven’t managed to jam these 4’s in all the way, really not sure whether I should jam them all the way all at once or leave them like this for a while and then jam them the rest of the way later. Last time, I gauged them over a period of a day (going from a 10 to a 6 - long story short, bought the wrong jewelry and thought I was going to an 8 - not so).
Like I said, hurts like hell, but BEAUTY IS PAIN especially in the world of body mods.
Whenever gauging hurts, I think to myself “I have tattoos on my fucking ankle bones, I can handle this shit.” Because that hurt more than anything in the world (and I do hope I go to my grave never having to say anything hurt MORE than those, because DAMN). 
Just jammed them in a little farther. Okay…breathe…I can handle this…
lol I am so bad with my piercings, I’m always like “BAH IT AIN’T THAT BAD” and just jam the jewelry in. I love pain.

What’s Awful: Stretching with spirals, then wearing as jewellery. She’s obviously in pain which stretching should never, ever be. 
I mean, seriously, going by the amount of pain that’s being described is maddening. 
And no, beauty is not pain in the world of body modification. Pain has nothing to do with stretching. It should never hurt, sting, or burn. It should feel like a light pressure is being applied. Nothing more. 
Please, have a read of this and seriously re-evaluate your stretching methods before you ruin your lobes!: http://awfulmodifications.tumblr.com/post/13774613790/the-in-depth-stretching-guide
(Also, nothing should ever be jammed in during stretching…)
