Joellercoaster 6 #51 June 6, 2003 Huh. Since this thread started, mine has been hurting like hell. I put a soft plastic bar in it, and it's not happy... back to the steel it is. It's not infected or anything, just really sore. Go figure.-- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, .

sunshine 2 #53 June 6, 2003 QuoteI put a plastic bar in mine for about a week once, and it hurt like hell the entire time. I've never tried plastic. Any ideas why it hurt? I have a steel bar with acrylic balls and have never had a problem with it. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug!

kansasskydiver 0 #54 June 6, 2003 the plastic bar has a kinda sharp tope to it and it really tears up the top of your mouth. chris<--- See look, pink dolphins DO exist! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jessica 0 #55 June 6, 2003 I imagine it was the bar's flexibility. Something bending and twisting inside your tongue is bound to hurt.Skydiving is for cool people only Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuperWoman 0 #56 June 6, 2003 I love my tongue ring! It has been my favorite toy since I got it, that is, until my new rig gets here!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tonto 1 #57 June 6, 2003 I have one. Look out for your teeth. Go short and fat as soon as you can, and think about plastic/Nylon/Gold beads to save your teeth. No gold shaft. bad breath. It's fun. I can use it - or I can leave it out of play. Your tongue is programmed to push stuff between your teeth. That includes stainless steel. tIt's the year of the Pig.

MochaSkyChick 0 #60 June 6, 2003 I've been considering getting my tongue pierced for a long time for no other reason than it was something that I always wanted. Although, I've had some of my friends tell me that I shouldn't do it because I'm a good girl. What the crap does that mean? So do they think if I go and get my tongue pierced I'm going to become a promiscuous, bank robbin, crack dealer? When I see someone with a pierce tongue the only thing I think it...cool, I wonder if it hurt a lot. I’m not all like, “Oh My Gosh, she must be a bad girl who likes to do bad things.” But then I tend to forget that I live in the South where I’ve had people tell me that dancin’ is evil. If anyone knows me then I guess you could say I had a VERY sheltered upbringing. But boy does skydiving change that, one minute you're saying “Yes Sir” and “No Mam” to people only a few years older than me (out of respect), the next minute you're naked in a hot tub asking someone to pass me a beer. How dare you skydivers corrupt my innocents??? Darn you I say…Darn you to heck! PMS #62 Zarza R[red Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sunshine 2 #63 June 6, 2003 QuoteHow long is the swelling supposed to last? Mine lasted about 4 days. I just ate lotsa popscicles. It really isn't that bad at all to get it done. The navel hurt far more than the tongue. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MyOwnWay 0 #64 June 6, 2003 QuoteThe navel hurt far more than the tongue. i agree, i didn't feel the needle going through my tongue. mine only started hurting afterwards when the bruising set in. if you want a painful piercing, get your cartilage done. i couldn't sleep on that side of my head for at least 4 months and i couldn't even stand to touch it or let alone have someone bump it._________________________________________ all good things are wild and free - Henry David Thoreau Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
