You certainly have some impressive battle scars there, Ash. Especially from the 35mm canister (and that's why I never pop the cans. I leave a little leader out so I can start the spooling in daylight).
I presume there are two in front and two slightly behind them?

Heh, I forgot I also have a very faint scar along my left wrist, like a suicide scar, from a wooden/glass cabinet falling off a shelf. I caught it and a metal box attached inside pushed its way through the skin. Very thin scar, very difficult to notice.
As for the tongue, no. I have 3 down the centre and one to the side (my right side, the left to anyone looking at me head-on).
That 'modification' that you speak of in Africa, if I'm thinking correctly, is disgusting. It just shows how primitive humans can be in such a 'modern' world.
Oh back to the thread - pain. Hmm well I got my tongue numbed every time, since I didn't really want to have any adverse effects like my tongue seizing up after piercing. I still felt the 'pop!' every time though. Lip labret was a piece of cake, no numbing. Apparently I said 'owww' AFTER my belly had been pierced (no numbing), and neck piercings hurt the most.
The first was done without any numbing/freezing spray. First the pinch of the forcep things, then the sting of the needle, then the actual 'banana' bar, that was an experience! the second one was numbed (even though I didnt ask for it to be) and it was a really dull kind of pain, like something very very blunt being pushed through slowly.
I love piercings, I love the whole experience, its a pity I can't get more though. My dad has only ever known about my lip bar, and he tried to throw me out the house for it.
He did, however pay for my bicep tattoo and such he was a hypocrite over his hatred of piercings. I daren't get any more in case he found out. I get free room and meals at home, I dont want to lose that!!
