Author Topic: Piercings for Patrick! (Read 18464 times)

So I've been thinking about getting a snake bite piercing. It's basically two lower lip piercings on either side (pics included for reference) and I was wondering what everyone thought of them or how they would look on me.

Thanks guys~

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #1 on:** January 03, 2009, 08:48:38 pm »

I'd say go for it. I think they would actually fit well with your facial structure. The studs would probably look better on you than the rings, though, in case you weren't sure which to go with.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #2 on:** January 03, 2009, 08:52:52 pm »

Yeah, you kind of have to start off with studs by default, just because they heal easier and quicker than a ring.

Good luck deciding, Patrick! Can't wait to see what you get done.

patrick youve gone insane.

I... don't know.... Patrick + Piercings does not calculate. @.@

Blackstar · « **Reply #5 on:** January 03, 2009, 10:01:19 pm »

I don't think that is the right type for you. But I am biest, I have never like the snake bit piercing. I would say maybe go with the signal under the lip barbell or just go with the lower ear and keep it basic.

Let's also keep in mind that most of the people replying here are most likely not piercing proponents, so yeah, there are obviously going to be a lot of people not agreeing with your idea, Patrick. I'll give you the advice I gave someone else though. Do it for yourself above anyone else, anyone here. If you get a piercing, make sure it is what will make you happy and you are willing to accept the potential negative aspects for the final product/look.

Blackstar · « **Reply #7 on:** January 03, 2009, 10:20:19 pm »

I take that back. I stumbled upon pic of you on the "post a pic of yourself" thing and I think you could pull of snake bite piercing.

Sometimes the hole heals up and sometimes it doesn't. Take that into consideration.
I'm gonna be laughing like crazy at these middle aged or older people with tats everywhere and gauged ears and holes all in their faces, it's gonna be awesome!

I'm a big fan of piercing and tattooing. I say go for it.

I whole-heartedly agree. Also, make sure you have a good conversation and are comfortable with your piercing artist. They can give you the best asthetic advice *^_^*

I think it'd be totally EPIC!!! Especially on you!

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #12 on:** January 03, 2009, 10:47:22 pm »

it could potential go okay but i am personaly afraid of many piercings around the mouth... my cousins friend had a tounge piercing that got infected *shiver* nasty stuff.

but i dunno if it would look good on you though...

well make sure you get it done by a pro! No sloppy stuff go to a body salon to get it done!

I always think of the same thing. That's why I only have two on each ear. Haha.

Anyway, back on subject here.
I say yes.
I don't say that to many people, but I think that your facial structure could pull it off

In my opinion, you're more suited for studs though and not as much with rings ::shrugs:: but hey, it's your face!

It won't be much worse than what age does naturally to the human body already. Age is an ugly process no matter how you look at it, tattoos and piercings aren't going to make much of a difference if you ask me.

But nobody did ask me, lol.

Personally, I think they're one of the ugliest forms of piercings available. However, this isn't my body we're talking about. I say if you wanna do it, go for it; I don't think it'd look good on you, even if I liked the look in general.

xRIxKUx · « **Reply #16 on:** January 03, 2009, 11:22:53 pm »

Really Patrick? Really? Haha well.. Word from PrinCess>
It is sometimes better to do something then regret it, then not do it and regret it. Lolx
But.. How much regret can you receive with a piercing(=1=PiercingS xD). You go and pierce your lips Patrick, pierce them like you've never pierced them.. Before... xD
(What made you want to get piercings anyways?

So, the title of this thread reminds me of Spongebob Squarepants. On the show he says, "Pats for Patrick." Or something like that.

NightLotus · « **Reply #19 on:** January 04, 2009, 10:46:52 am »

I think the snakebites are good ^^
I don't usually like piercings, but if you want them, Meg approves! ^^
(I do like the rings more than the studs though... ;;>_>)

Syd-chan · « **Reply #20 on:** January 04, 2009, 01:51:23 pm »

XD Hell yes. DO IT! ...I've been thinking a lot about piercings and tattoos for someone my age. XD It might just a be a phase, but I have an insane urge for a lip ring. o.O;;

NightLotus · « **Reply #21 on:** January 05, 2009, 09:51:13 am »

You won't be saying that once his gums get infected. That's what happens with lip and tongue piercings.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #25 on:** January 05, 2009, 12:59:59 pm »

Do you base everything on what happens some of the time? That's not an always situation, and very rarely happens when piercings are taken care of.

I call shenanigans and troll-watch!

And I think it looks great, Patrick!

YouDontKnowMe · « **Reply #26 on:** January 05, 2009, 01:06:17 pm »

Well s**t happens. Food gets in the hole and all over the stud. It infects your mouth and teeth fall out.

NightLotus · « **Reply #27 on:** January 05, 2009, 01:19:00 pm »

since EVERYONE who has EVER had a lip piercing got infections and had teeth fall out?
(lol

the image amuses meg ^^)

I'll adopt your logic for the moment.

Don't eat meat, you'll get salmonella exposure.
Don't drive a car, you'll get in a wreck.
Don't go swimming in the ocean, you'll get eaten by a shark.
Don't shave, you'll nick a vein and bleed to death.

Yes, let's all adopt this mindset. Let's see how things fare when such logic is applied.

I'm glad of that!
I would be to much of a wimp to get peircings like that ><
I havn't even gotten my ears pierced... ;;>_>

xxxchihiroxxx · « **Reply #36 on:** January 05, 2009, 06:30:28 pm »

well pat they came out better than i thought they would on you :3

It will take some getting used to but hey it is your body xD

lotus: xD it hardly EVER hapens *wears contacts* Be more afraid of leaving your contacts in to long ._. if a dust fragment gets on there ITS PAIN for two days at least

xRIxKUx · « **Reply #37 on:** January 05, 2009, 07:43:31 pm »

Are your lips swollen? How do you feel Dear?

It'll take some getting used to, but I bet you won't regret it

>LOTUS< My contact rolls back sometimes... I feel like a retarded zombie when I try to bring it back to the front xD Lolx But it's not too bad nor painful.. Just more.. Idiotic than anything xD

Deviant Spider · « **Reply #38 on:** January 05, 2009, 07:55:37 pm »

I ALWAYS wanted to peirce my lip but the one thing that made me decide not to was the realization that If I wanted to have a professional job someday I wouldnt want to have a big noticable hole in my lip. I realize that that was probably the best choice for me and obviously not the choice for everyone.

Make sure its a decision you want to live with for a long time, cause even if you decide to remove it someday youll have the little scar marks.

I believe that all tattoos and peircings should be up to the individual so good luck with the choice!

NightLotus · « **Reply #39 on:** January 05, 2009, 07:58:32 pm »

thanks guys ^^ i think i'll be getting some cosmetic contacts some time soon, and i was getting a little worried about them, but it sounds like it will be fine ^^

@deviant: I agree with that stance completely! ^^

jaybug · « **Reply #40 on:** January 05, 2009, 08:24:00 pm »

I made the mistake of listening to Love Line on the way home from work. Heard the story of a guy who had his "package" removed as he let his piercing get infected.

I bet he scratches his tattoos too.

Following directions is more than just a wild idea out of nowhere.

Kahlan4 · « **Reply #41 on:** January 05, 2009, 08:49:42 pm »

your new piercings look good, patrick ^.^ i think the studs would look good too, so you should try those after they heal up completely.

and you shouldn't have to worry about infection if you keep them clean and follow what your piercer told you, people just like to nay-say about anything they can, just like on the tattoo thread *shrugs*

gonna get any other piercings??

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #42 on:** January 05, 2009, 09:19:56 pm »

I'm curious, where did you get your piercings done, Patrick? How was your experience? (Turns into Barbara Walters and asks a million questions.)

KEEP IT TAKEN CARE OF MISTER
Your expieriance seems much better than mine when I pierced mine.. But I did mine on a whim and myself. xD Good job Patrick haha

I wonder, will gold, silver or platinum piercing jewelery be affected by MRI machinery, or by the LHC? Is Patrick going to have to forego his dream job of working in a fusion power plant? lol
