BME: Body Modification Ezine

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.

Is He Always This Funny, or Only on Days When He’s Wanted for Murder?

Written by

New rule: When you’ve got quotes from Who Framed Roger Rabbit? and Little Shop of Horrors tattooed on the same limb, you get to be on ModBlog. Executive decision.

(Roger Rabbit quote on DirtyHippie by Eric at Voodoo Needle in Auburn, Alabama.)

    I wouldn’t recommend getting tattooed by any of the guys at this shop, unless you feel like having your tattoos etched into your skin with the force of a jackhammer. Honestly, these artists have no idea what having a light hand means. Myself and one of my friends have horrible, raised, blown out tattoos from this shop; the worst part is, the owner of the shop is the most untalented tattoo artist I’ve ever seen, not to mention unprofessional.

    Jessica Rabbit, regardless of being a cartoon, was hot.

    Comic Sans was a poor choice of font

    Sick. I literally, after about 10 years of not having seen “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?” I watched it for the first time again tonight. What a coincidence.
