Aspiration for Record Breaking Loserdom
Or maybe that's LoserDUMB!
an homage to Ed Anger

How do you go about proving all those people from high school right? That you are a complete and utter loser. You could do what Elaine Davidson did and poke 1903 holes in your body, take on the utter freak persona of being the world's most pierced person and that ought to do it. Oh wait, make a hole in your tongue big enough to poke your finger through and viola, transformation from piercing freak loser to world record holding piercing freak loser.

Yes, there is a pic on the link so you can actually see what she looks like with probably close to five pounds of metal sticking in her skin. Can you say sado-masochistic pleasure junkie? Yeah, I thought you could. Now how about, utter waste of money? Very good.

I'm not wholly against the piercing thing, I think its kind of stupid but that's alright, every generation has its share of stupid fads. Its mostly harmless aside from the infected nose ring and the numbnuts who put a hoop through their lips so that they can't even close their mouths normally. But the idea of putting nearly 2,000 metal spikes through your body is, well, stupid. But maybe that's just me. Maybe I'm not allowing myself the opportunity to see a whole new kind of beauty in her thousands of shiny metal balls adorning her body.

But I don't think it is art, I think its a vain waste of time, money and metal. There is nothing attractive about this woman, there is just the high freak quotient and need for attention driving her to true excess. Good for you, Elaine, it worked. And no, I don't have any spare change for you.

[Update: Because he wrote it so well and without any spelling errors, I'm adding Ethan's comment to the thread here. And away we go.....Leblanc, everything has its place. The part of me that finds pinwoman to be obnoxious does so for the same reason I find David Blain to be a wanker. It's pointless, and if it were pointless for the sake of self-enjoyment starve yourself while piercing your unmentionables until the cows come home. Its that we've turned idiotic passtimes into entertainment and this magnet's wet dream is now trying to scam British residency because these piercings would make her a target in her native Brazil. Its the fact that she will now be supported by her facination with self-destruction. Read any stories about Peace Core volunteers today? I haven't but I've read two on pinperson and passed by a bunch on D.C.'s sniper asswipe who now blames the Matrix. Personally I just get tired of rewarding the uninventive folks that don't add anything to society. And that would be my rant.
Nice work, Ethan! You put words to alot of the same sentiment I was feeling but couldn't tap out properly.]
