my ear tunnel, it had fallen out in the night and I didn't want to go a day at work with a cats arsehole for an ear lobe.

I think I might be having a stroke, I don't understand what's going on here at all.

I assume it's related to having ear gauges? Just very hopeful guess though.

It took me a few seconds too, but yes, it's related to having stretched ear lobes.

It's the plastic kind of beads they put in their ear lobes to stretch them into a hole.

When you remove them, the hole left behind looks like a cat's butt.

Give this user a cats butt for being correct.

I was a big fan of the body modification scene when I was younger. Now I'm approaching my 40 my piercings have all been removed except these ear stretches.

Do I regret them? No I still quite like em.

I've never been a fan of them myself but I've always found it nice to learn about others' interests.

And now that I've aged I care less about how others look and more about if they're kind to me.

Just To be pedantic: tunnels don't have to be made of plastic, I think surgical steel is more common.

[–] NaoPb@eviltoast.org 2 points 11 months ago

No, that's a fine addition because I hardly know anything about tunnels. I just felt the need to explain the basics of what I know to them.

I thought the same thing at first because of the use of the word torch, but then I remembered my people across the pond.
