Wait, what?

That deviation was from earlier this year, right? If it was the perosn who threw a fit, it took a long time for dA to get back to it I think. Lazy bums! But at least they didn't remove it or anything, because frankly reguardless of how it was done it's damn beautiful.

"That's going on your tombstone."

Actually, I was linked to a livejournal entry that involved my koi being speculated as whether it was a violation or not.. that probably sparked the report. Oh well, people have no lives I guess! *shrug*

That is probably likely, I'd not doubt it.
And I agree, people have no lives. It's still a beautiful piece

well, that's good to hear!

While, i do admit to having mixed feeling about the piece, your comments for the picture were reassuring, and it did turn out very lovely.

Another thing people don't know is that I got it tattooed over now.
And that I haven't really done anything like that sense.

I wish people wouldn't have treated it like such a harmful thing. I'm part of a community where having a split tongue or a hole in your nuts is common... so when people get so shocked and worked up about it, I get confused.

And thank you, I am glad you liked it as a general piece of art

Ow, ow, ow... I read the split tongue and hole in the nuts.

Gah, ouch. Shit, what if it got infected like that one Malcom in the Middle episode where Malcom gets his tongue pierced?

But besides that, I'm happy that you didn't receive any penalty at all for what you did. You know your body well enough to decide for yourself in how you want to express yourself. Plus your coy fish fuckin' rocks.

Unless you get into drugs, that's bad.

Uuuum. Oh yeah, how should I address you as now?

Maire, Amanda, or Cubi?

WOO! USA USA!

Everyone still calls me Cubi, so I really don't care either way.

See, the thing about infection is, the people who do most of those things takes very good care of their bodies, and infection is pretty rare.

To be honest, the only ways to fuck up body modification are to use improper tools (safety pins for piercing, a rusty knife for scarifications, etc.), sheer neglect, and maybe a piercing with a nasty material for healing (titanium is the way to go!). Past that, if you take care of it properly, then it's more than likely to heal properly. Of course, some things happen, and it's obvious that we can't know every possible outcome of piercings and other practises, but it's kind of a learning experience as well.

And no, I will never get into drugs. I don't smoke, I don't drink, I don't do anything else. Of course, I don't have anything against anyone who does, so...

And the media just gives most body modification a bad name. I stopped watching TV a long time ago.

Thanks for reassuring me that you wouldn't. I remember that a couple years back we talked about drugs, and I'm glad that we both agree never to do it or get into it.

Because I think that once you start to say that you can reflect your personal self through drugs is when a true friend should step in and tell them to stop. For good friends though.

If it's an acquaintance, back the fuck off is my motto, because the last thing I want is to be bossing people what to do, pissing them off, getting into a fight over something pointless and both ending with just... Not good results.

I actually don't really have anyone against them for doing pot or other few drugs, but if they start getting heavy on it, and I know them, then I feel that I should like ask them what's up. I mean, I care if I see a person changing through the influence. It's late, I'm totally blabbering on something that's minor.

Yeah I agree with you about that. My sister has had her belly button pierced and I think she had her tongue pierced for a bit too, and she was completely fine with it. Hell I don't think I even noticed it until she told me and I freaked out for a bit for not knowing before.

That would be sick if a cyst or a nasty infection grew from it. That episode was hilarious though. It's with most things that people think are dangerous. Like sky-diving. My Calculus teacher has done it 56 times since March now, and he loves it, and he read that only 18 people die out of millions, and 17 of them die for their own stupidity.

If you know what you're doing, and you take precautions beforehand it's all good =].

I dunno what to call you. There are so many options... Hmm, I'll choose it upon mood or depending on how you are too.

You've taken good care of yourself. I'm not worried at all (and if I had any previous concerns I pretty much forgot about them now.)

D'oh! I just remembered the game!
