A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Love Me, Please

Seriously, if the inside of your mouth is in need of some loving (or at least willing to give some), you’ve come to the right turgid blogger, that is, if you don’t mind things getting a little messy. But I won’t be offended if you spit. Tattoo by by Chuck at Jade Dragon Tattoo in Chicago.

    they last, they just tend to blur or blow out more than other placements.

    Oh jeez, I have to stop drunk blogging. I don’t normally drink, but I went out last night with Saira and split I think three pitchers and a whole lot of rhubarb pie…. Sorry if I crossed the “offensiveness” line 🙂

    I’m not sure anyone can actually be attractive pulling their lip out like that?
    Might be me though, I have a thing about teeth. 😀

    aimee…generally that’s true, but I also have an inner lip tattoo. I’ve had it for about 2 years and it hasn’t faded or spread one bit.

    thank you six and Woz 🙂 lol @ shannon

    Posted on 05-21-2006 16:04:55 by Yeah, swedish girls ARE sluts.
    Hahaha, Shannon, don’t feel bad, my first thought after reading it was “Yeah, I DO love Shannon”, so it was perfectly OK offensiveness-wise…;)
    And yeah, I probably am a bad person. But at least I’m young and look innocent, so I get away with it.;)
