Handy Piercings

See link for glasses piercing. You could also have a cigarette holder piercing, variable lense microscope piercings, nose flute piercing, hair clip piercing, clips on the forehead and jaw to hold two upsidedown beercans like those stadium baseball beer caps, maybe a straw embedded into your cheek. Anything where it would be convenient to have something closer to your face.

A bottle opener hanging off of my chin on a braid of silver.

Yeah, or then you could just embed a bottle opener into your bottom lip and then we could package everything in bottles.

"...The idea of hanging eyeglasses from a piercing or a combination of piercings or even transdermal implants is something that a lot of us have toyed with..." (from the link)

=)

Yep, I've often wondered about the viability of that...

(just in case you're wondering, I do actually have tattoos and piercings, I'm not being disapproving - it just struck me as a humourous line)

Deathslide pulley earrings, or in fact, any kind of pulley earring would at *some* time come in handy.

Ballpoint finger, eraser elbow, stapler tooth. (Yes I am sitting in the office thinking about this) 'Java in a Nutshell' miscrosopic tattoo?...maybe not.

just here. no higher, yes that's it.

Whenever I see this kind of ideas I can only think of the pain it must represent getting one end of whatever is attached to the piercing to a moving object. (-)

I would like banjo finger picks embedded in my finger tips. I also intend to get the aforementioned piercing spectacles when they're readily available. What's one more piece of steel in my body anyway?

My ex had a functional piercing.

Razorblade fingernails.

Also, those glasses would be a lot cooler if they looked like Nike's strapless goggles.

Gibson chic. :)

A stainless steel tongue stud with bristles could guarantee you a fresh mouth all day long.

Since I was just about to post Glasses Piercing I suppose I must give this a (+).
