OK, it’s all cleaned up in this photo. Thanks Sara for showing us there actually is fun to be had in Manitoba, Canada… A province currently fighting to outlaw scarification by professionals — so politicians, be proud of yourself — you’ve just guaranteed that a whole lot more home cutting is going to happen. Was that really your wish? Get a clue, old dudes.
