Look at it this way: You can either get books, or a really obvious and painful weak spot if you ever get in a fight.

Uh, I mean, no, I totally don't get your reference. Edited September 27, 2016 by bleeder 1
Assassin in Burgundy he/him Posted September 27, 2016 Author Posted September 27, 2016 No you didn't get it. It's a very subtle reference to a coloring book detailing an insane turtle that kills people with jewelry. (You got it).

Images of grotesque body horror always play in my mind whenever I see someone with piercings. oh hey thats an idea... I also don't like the idea of piercings. Also roughly 1% of piercings in the world are cookies. Too risky, eh. Strangely enough, I am considering getting a cookie for my right eye as soon as I make my long delayed Introduction post. Right eye because it is a lazy eye- and I cant tolerate laziness! jk I'm lazy all over. By getting a cookie, I can get Lurching powers and depth perception.

Darkness Ascendant he/him Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 Thank you all for making a mockery of my fears. You have no idea how terrifying they are for me.

marsoupial they/them Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 I accidentally offered my best friend, whom I shall refer to as R, a 55-cent strawberry pop tart. R is deathly allergic to strawberries. She made some joke about my secret plot to kill her, we both had a good laugh about it, but I still feel bad.

Zathoth Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 What a sad existence being allergic to strawberries must be... Not as terrible as being allergic to cats, of course, but still. 1

Not as terrible as being allergic to cats, of course, but still. I actually once dated a girl who was allergic to flowers. So I took a piece of chicken wire and folded it into a flower and put it into a vase filled with pebbles and gave it to her. At least I tried. She was actually allergic to most everything. Dogs, cats, grass, et cetera. It kinda sucked. Edited September 27, 2016 by bleeder

If it's just a stud, exploiting it in a fight isn't what I'd do. There's more vulnerable parts (solar plexus, nose, eyes) that are much easier to hit than trying to exploit someone's piercing. Earrings are slightly better, but going for them specifically means you're focusing on that part. Hoops, or other dangly earrings, are really bad in a fight, though.

Earrings sometimes hurt when people hug you and squish your ear against their face. It sucks. Funny story, I once had apple headphones, the ones where you can adjust volume or skip song from the headphones. So I reached up to skip song and realised I was holding my dangly earring instead. This is when you just keep walking and hope no one noticed how dumb you feel.
