Once I was in a bar and I met a guy who had a 4 gauge barbell in his tongue. A 4 GAUGE!! It was so short that he had to pull it to the side to show me the post. And it wasn't like it had a huge knob on it. Can anyone explain to me the purpose of doing something like that??

I don't get it. . . . .

I knew a guy that had a 00gauge grommet in his tongue. I still can't see how he kept it in. A big hollow hole in the tongue. This same individual liked to wear empty beer cans in his lobes!!! surreal

Ah hell Fractal you could be wearing a sackcloth and have your whole head pierced with a trailer hitch and you'd still be just that amazingly cute.

Well, piercings are usually cosmetic but sometimes functional. The opportunities to show a tongue adornment are few I would think so it sort of points to the functional issue. If its functional, what would a larger gauge provide?? I'm just trying to figure out what compels a person to gouge a hole that fucking big in something as important as the tongue.

:edit: Forgot to include dude. . . .

I have a 4 gauge barbell in my tongue. And another, smaller gauge barbell in the front of that one. The purpose? What? What is the purpose of any body mod, really?

It's no different than having a 14 gauge (standard size for piercings) hole in your tongue. My tongue still functions perfectly fine, and I have two holes in it.

I disagree that all piercings are either to show off or to serve a purpose. I have a 6 gauge barbell in my tongue, and I just like playing with it, I like the feeling of the weight in my tongue. But I suppose some people could argue that it has a purpose, heh. However, I also have my tongue web pierced. No one ever sees it, and it serves no purpose whatsoever. I just love playing with it, and the way it feels.

What compels people to do it? Well... because they want to, and they enjoy it. And that's enough for me smile
