Oh look, it’s Ramen, ladies and gentlemen! Sure, he’s got 1 3/4-inch lobes, pierced cheeks, a vertical labret and high and low nostril piercings, but there’s so much more to him than just a pretty face. Don’t believe me? Click through for a full-length shot. There is literally a full body beneath his neck.

We’ll confess that the last photo of knifefight to be featured on ModBlog (this one) is one of our favorite pictures we’ve ever posted, so we were obviously excited to see her grace our inbox yet again. She’s got a slightly different look going on this time around, but you know what? We’re alright with that. Another striking shot from this set by photographer Jeff Hui, after the jump.
And hey, would you look at that, ModBloggers? It’s Friday, and not just for free-born men of the U.S.A.

We mentioned a little while ago that friend of BME Meg Barber was doing a short guest-spot tour before packing up for sunny Los Angeles, and as luck would have it, she decided to check in with this lovely plumeria blossom cutting she did while in scenic Cincinnati, Ohio. Great placement, clean design, crisp lines…I thought about giving it either an A or an A+, but I completely forgot that there’s an A++.

Look, we all knew it was only a matter of time until the deluge of Michael Jackson tribute tattoos came rolling in. Within a few hours of his death, astute readers had already sent me links to photos of memorial tattoos, and there have already been a handful of newspaper articles about the phenomenon. Naturally. But this one, up there? We have no way of verifying this, but based on what the wearer says, we believe this could be the very first post-death Michael Jackson memorial tattoo. Says he: “I got a call that he had died and 15 minutes later this was drawn up and being tattooed on my arm.” Fifteen minutes! Is your mind blown? Yes. Yes it is. You can admit it.

Good day, fair ModBloggers! Now, would you look at this: The lovely Natasha has taken quite a tumble! Whoever left out this ottoman in a dark room should be ashamed of themselves. She was just on her way to the kitchen, in the middle of the night, to pour herself a glass of ginger ale, and then bam, a nasty, avoidable spill. Granted, it’s a nice view for us, and hey, who doesn’t love the asymmetric back-piece? For a more direct view, take a gander after the jump.
