I was talking to Abby yesterday. We went from small children to gay rights to abortion to absurd piercings in our conversation topics. o_O; We also spent time comparing stretch marks, joint sizes, and strange musculatures in my living room. I enjoy her company. I'm glad she's going to be my sister-in-law one day. <3

eta: The flexible bar your friend was talking about was probably teflon tubing (its like thick fishing wire). My friend had that in her neck piercing when she first got it, but because your skin doesn't heal well around plastic, she eventually had to have it taken out. The guy said you should have metal first and once that heals you can have the plastic put in.
The coolest (and most painful) thing I ever saw was some girl had these like hooks pierced in her and then ribbon laced through it so it looked like a corset.
With spinal piercings, I will say that I've heard that those are really prone to problems, so if you do it, make sure you get a awesome professional who's done it before. It'll probably cost you, but its worth it.

As for the problems associated with these piercings, yeah. I gathered that from just the surface reading I managed today. But thanks for the help. :D
O_o I did not expect you to have your neck pierced. What /else/ do you have pierced, you crazy girl?

Except that that was 2 years ago, so the bells are dark pink now.
I also have 3 holes in each ear, but I actually don't wear earrings that much because I'm allergic to nickel.

Fail at nickel allergies. My sister also has this, and has to wear sterling silver EVERYTHING because of it. And I, weirdly enough, have a silver allergy, or at least break out in a horrible scarring rash every time I wear my silver rings. e_e;
:D Thanks for sharing, though. :D Awesome!

Huge things on the back remind me a lot of Annabel (yes, THAT Annabel), and I know I'm not awesome enough to pull that sort of weirdness off.
Plus, I doubt it ages well. I can see me fifty-odd and wrinkled as fuck (somehow I'm a smoker in this flashforward, which is insanely silly. XD) with my arrow, my rabbit, and maybe a few other splats of ink. I can't see this same wrinkly body with a shitload of corseting. *SHRUG*

But ... spinal piercings? Like ... how would that work?

From my understanding, spinal piercings pierce the skin above the bone. Not deep enough to instigate nerve damage or anything like that. Evidently they're a bit of a bitch, though.
Some part of me says that this will stop my jumpiness anytime things pass within ten feet behind me. ^^; The other part says this first part of me is insane and ought to be ignored as loudly as possible, preferably with hands over ears, etc. :D

Eh, yeah, I assumed it didn't like, penetrate your spinal cord. But still, I can think of thousands upon thousands of ways in which that could go horribly wrong. o_o; I suppose if the person knew what s/he was doing....
But owwwwwww D:
