Hoo boy that’s grisly, but fitting for this, the Halloween season, no? Shane checks in from scenic Columbus, Georgia, to show off this new Columbia Necktie tattoo by Matthew Wertjes at Superior Skin Art. The tongue is a nice touch, too—the tongue in the tattoo, that is, not the split tongue, although we’re sure that has a nice touch too…ladies.
More angles after the jump, including a painful-looking procedural shot.

Shane. You may have made a valid point or two in there somewhere; but just trying to read that gave me a headache…

“I guarantee that anyone who looks like me doesn’t plan on being 50″?
What the hell is that supposed to mean?

I like splits tongues, don’t know how I feel about split teeth though…

Because poking at people’s flaws and decisions in life on modblog is the new cool thing to do, apparently.
Shane, just do what you do in life. Fuck all this hating bullshit. Don’t stress over it.

When they post their photos to ModBlog, that’s clearly what they want or they wouldn’t have bothered.

So wait, wait, you’ve wanted this piece forever… have had a split tongue, how long? and he couldn’t work the split into the tattoo?

@DS3M, Yeah, why not? It’s his life right? In what why is it hurting you? All you do is talk shit because it makes you feel better about yourself. Who are you? & why do you hide? Let me see how you live your live. You have no point in all of this.

As far as women, I’ve seen a few of them complimenting on the tattoo, and he did mention that he has a job.
I’m not here to back up Shane because he’s a nice dude and I’ve talked to him before. It’s just really pathetic and funny that people go on Modblog and start yapping away with their ignorant comments about someone just because they want it their way. As if he owed you all something or needed to get your approval. Everyone will be different. Appreciate. Modblog used to mean something. A community where “Different” people would come together and be accepted because “normal” people wouldn’t. If Modblog viewers can’t accept people with different tattoos, piercings, and what not, then what’s the point of this site?
Sure you think, “Oh he’s going to regret that in the future”, “Fuck, it’s ugly”, “Shitty work”, “So stupid to get that on his neck” Then you think about his future, then his sexual life, then his dental health, then………..SERIOUSLY? Does it bother you that much? You will not change anything, just sitting and typing away. You’re actually wasting your time as I am right now.

Well whatever, jojo. He submitted the photos to BME. One way or the other, if he didn’t want people commenting on his tattoo, he wouldn’t have posted photos of it online (and he probably wouldn’t have got such a shocking tattoo in such a prominent place either)

@ tallish_noodles (#19) – As for why people question young people making permanent decisions, the answer’s easy…because most people change a lot from who they were in their teens and 20s. Want proof? Just look at all the people of that age who dress goth or punk, swear that it’s them and that they’ll never change. Check back with them when they’re in their 30s and tell me how many of them still dress that way. Some might, but most won’t. Check again in their 40s. How many 40-something year old goths and punks do you see running around? Not many. But if you had asked them at 19 or 20, suggested that there might be a time where they won’t want to dress like that anymore, they’d laugh at you and be like “No way, this is who I am,” because when you’re that age, however you are then, you’re convinced you’ll be that way forever. It’s only when you get older and look back that you realize how much you really have changed. You evolve all throughout life. A 30-something is no more the same person they were at 20 than a 20 year old is the same person they were at 13. You always grow, always evolve.
So it stands to reason that a permanent modification gotten at a young age might not be to the person’s liking when they’re older, even if they swore when they got it that it would always be “them.” That doesn’t mean that all young people will regret their mods later in life, but I guarantee some of them will regret some of them. If you get to a point in life where you don’t feel that dressing a certain way suits who you are anymore, you can just change your clothes. A giant throat tattoo is a little harder to do something about.

i know i’m a bit late to be commenting this but seriously. not every job that supports your lifestyle has to happen in a cubicle or in front of customers or in some shit situation where you have to ask your manager if you can stretch your ears a little bit more. shut the fuck up with the ‘omg he’ll never have a job’ shit, do you think modifications are free? dude’s alive, relatively healthy, and heavily modified, so he’s obviously covering his bases in the way he sees fit. so what he might not be able to get that big promotion down the road at merril lynch or wherever the fuck YOU think he might eventually want to work, it shouldn’t be surprising that omg someone on a body modification site thinks modifying their body in a way that makes them happy is more important than potential employers at some point in the future possibly being grossed out by their tattoo. are you fucking serious? BME/IAM is filled with people who are seriously heavily and visibly modified and most of them are under 50. fuck having some arbitrary age limit on making your body look the way you want. fuck imposing your ideas of what’s gross or too extreme in terms of modifications on everyone else. fuck assuming everyone should aspire to the same lifestyle you have or aspire to. seriously fuck all the hypocrites that come on here and act like they’re so into modification but have shit to talk on everything that’s not stretched lobes, standard piercings, and cliche tattoos. go join a fucking myspace ‘lookit my gaugez’ group if people being visibly modified really offends you that much, you have nothing to add to the community but bitching and hate so just gtfo.

To the person who said that his body is otherwise completely devoid of ink:
His entire right arm is tattooed black, save for his elbow that contains a snowflake.
He has a good deal of ink. But not good ink.
