Going to have my nipples pierced. Should I have it done a few days before starting my thru hike or get it done in a trail town along the way? By the way, I like to wear homemade burlap shirts made from discarded feed sacks. I then soak them in creosote thinned down with turpintine to render them waterproof. Do you think the burlap material would be irritating to my new piercings or should I opt for something softer?

Troll somewhere else please.

As someone who has a past with extreme piercing, I would HIGHLY suggest not having a piercing anytime around hiking. Nipple piercing are one of the faster to heal, but still take a couple months to take......in other words, if you hike with a fresh piercing, you are pretty much promised an infection. And trust me.....that IS NOT a piercing that you want infected!
After care involves salt soaks and antibacterials.......I DO NOT suggest having this done now.
Also, you won't come across a parlor until Gaitlenberg....

You are one dumb SOB! I hope you get cellulitis.

Air driven nailgun?

Recommend lots of cough syrup.

This is exactly what Minisota Smith did prior to his thruhike. Other than grossing out every single hiker on the trail he did complete the hike. You need to send him a private message.

Just because burlap shirts over freshly pierced nipples isn't funny doesn't mean he wasn't trying.

Holy nose-rings Batman! That's what happens when you INSERT a humor thread up the wrong subdirectory.
Well I guess Mr.Haha got skewered quickly by the local good humor men. I hope he takes the good natured needling with a wHolesome dose of humor/pennicilin. I mean if we can't laugh at infected body parts brought on by attention seeking self-mutilation - can we call ourselves hikers?
It sure beats getting snagged by a fish-hook dangled across the trail in Erwin. Which I may say ... fish hooks as body jewelry IS making a comeback. :D

PS. - I hope he gets gingivitis.

Never had any piercings, never will. Piercings IMNSHO are for women (single traditional earring holes), and mutants. I'm neither.

Yeah, and thats more honest than IMHO. Few few people express their opinions "humbly."

Boy I'll tell you, the responses to my questions have about overwelmed me. The early ones in particular. So kind ,so compassionant, so caring. I will never forget them. But alas a young mans fancy turns to love, and spring break calls. But on my return I am going to pick the one reply that exhibits the most Christ like attitude towards fellow man. And that person is going to be awarded by me, two box seat tickets to the Milwaukee Braves home opener, as well as dinner for two at Milwaukee's finest Turkish restaurant . Thats alot to look forward to . But as you folk's favorite highbrow comedien would say. We ARE going to "GIT ER DONE"

As another gal, who has had her own experiences with piercings, etc., I say we stick together Wonder. Just because we'll go out and play with them doesn't mean the boys get to know everything. ;)

You forgot intractable cattle. They do well to have a ring in their nose.

:eek:Wow! I always thought the hiking community would be more tolerant.:eek:

I've got the popcorn. :D

Wow, seriously? It'll take around 6 months for them to heal completely, and that's if you take care of them properly. Are ya sure you wouldn't wanna do it after? Chances of your nipples getting chaffed or rubbed off by your shoulder straps are already great, do you really want them to be throbbing with piece of steele jabbed through them? At least make sure your current on your tetnus shot! Do I smell popcorn?

Uhhh duct-tape or moleskin should alleviate any discomforts. As most hikers try to outfit themselves with multiple use gear. Any exotic jewelry can probably double as fish lures, trinkets to trade with the natives or even as bear bells (if substantial enough).

But on my return I am going to pick the one reply that exhibits the most Christ like attitude towards fellow man. I don't think I'd mention Him in a thread about piercing. Too close to Easter and all.

And that person is going to be awarded by me, two box seat tickets to the Milwaukee Braves home opener, Will Hank Aaron be playing?

As one who used to belong to a full contact foam and PVC sword fighting group....many guys with pierced nipples found that electrical tape covered their piercings nicely, and prevented them from getting removed by a sword hit to the chest. Duct tape not only removed the hair and skin, but also the piercing too. But what do I know...my college roommate used to wax her legs with duct tape.

That's strange ... the mention of full contact foam and PVC sword fighting with the visual of duct tape hair removal has me disturbed and excited at the same time ... :eek::eek::eek:!
Weird.

Dino don't fight it, you have a gift, you don't hide that gift under a bushel basket!

I was referring to humans. Cattle don't fit that category.

yeah, I agree, duct tape can irritate sensitive skin too, the electrical tape is a good idea though, never thought of that.
I wonder if he could use the pasties? Or would covering them up keep them from healing?

Well, I broke out the popcorn and the cheap swill, Yungling. I have learned more about piercings than I ever wanted to know. I had no clue was a prince albert was and went to wiki to look it up and there were photo's! I immediatly heaved my popcorn & beer thru my nose into the trash can next to my laptop. No-I won't post the disgusting thread as I want to retain membership here. But it leaves an interesting question...


What would a gal do if she saw a nipple rings and the prince albert with duct tape & bear bells?:eek: I wonder?:D

Please do not photoshop your response.... I have already seen it.

Mr HaHa spray your fresh piercings with Windex. Seemed to work in My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

I definitely say go for it! You just can't have too many piercings. Get some ink to go with it.

And what's with this we crap? I'm no pervert my friend. Wanna hear about my Daddy parts?;)

I have a labret and my ears(don't wear them) so are you guys seriously calling me a mutant? You guys are too much. It's not 1950.

Ouch! If he just want's to talk about feelings blah blah blah ... he can get away with a phone actress - probably safer. :D

Come on it was just a joke. Lighten up Dude.

I was merely taking the statement that Thru Hiker Wife made, a step further. Look at the posts.

No harm meant I'm actually a very sensitive guy and I can furnish references.

BTW I do not want to hear about your Daddy parts. Not interested in short stories.

True! Take matters into his own hands.....Ouch! If he just want's to talk about feelings blah blah blah ... he can get away with a phone actress - probably safer. :D

Dude. I did look but that's not funny. If you talked to my wife like that we would have an issue! If I were married that is. It was very rude and has the maturity level of a 12 year old.Come on it was just a joke.

I think you mean Folk. I knew it was the humor forum, thus the statement.

If I offended you ladies, I'm sorry. it was a joke.

JOW...pound sand.

ED, and yes, ED (i think i owe you one, you dork!) ;)

Ouch here's w/ the ED thing again. I guess that explains why I talk about it so much. Yes Maam I believe you do owe me one.
:datz

Pound Sand?? What does that even mean? You apologized. Just don't be afraid to use manners Man.

Pound Sand?? What does that even mean? You apologized. Just don't be afraid to use manners Man.

JOW I didn't apologize to you. Frankly I think you were the only one offended, the others were all smart enough to realize that it was a joke making fun of the stereotype that men have about wanting to know women's "secrets".

I would reply that you shouldn't take everything so seriously and you know absolutely nothing about my manners.

BTW not surprised you don't know what pound sand means, just surprised you've never been told to do it before. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=pound+sand

Wow. A flame war in the Hiking Humor forum.

I guess that's kinda funny.

Why would you apologize to the women if I was the only one who took offense. Please, let's compare IQs and credentials any time Sir.;) I just know how to make a joke in good taste and not in that of a Neanderthal.:DJOW I didn't apologize to you.

Another terrific thead in flames, what happened? I cant read all of this ... there is so little time, I wait for the drive by media for a synopsis. Hey Doggiebag - Here I pass you a free bottle of Yuengling! let's watch the fire....



Hey Skid let the Shirt fly a little before you lock it, Life is way to short let us stay tuned!

I always love it when someone brings a knife to a gunfight. Sorry to keep everyone waiting.

So you have a high IQ...well congratulations to you Mr. really super smart guy. You seem to fill the bill of many of your type that have such little common sense. And credientials too...oooo that is so cool. What might they be if we underlings are allowed to ask.

My apology said (if you actually do read the posts) "If I offended you ladies I apologize" So I guess if you are wearing a skirt you may fall into that catagory. However, none of them seemed bothered by my humor. In fact one seemed to find it very funny.

BTW you do now know what pound sand means right? So you understand what all of those people have been telling you all of these years. I'm surprised that with your IQ and credentials (ooo, sorry can't help it) you didn't already know that.

That's enough of the light-hearted banter.
