Hey, **Mermaid** , you better be careful pouring that water on yourself like that with it being so cold in here. If you’re not careful, everyone will be able to see your … uh …

Oh.

Good Lord, **Mermaid** , be careful. You’re gonna put someone’s eye out. You could cut glass with those things.

Oh…my…gawwwwwwd. :: drool ::

I just can’t help but think back to that sex paraphernalia thread from a few months ago. Mmmmmmmm. (You thought maybe I’d forgotten, Mermaid? Ha!)  
Now excuse me while I whip this out.

:: pulls out seltzer bottle, squirts Mermaid right in the, er, fins. Yeah, that’s it. Fins. ::

Maybe we could talk the thread into killing itself? You know, lower its self-esteem a bit.

“Thread, nobody likes you, you’re ugly and your momma dresses you funny! You’ll never be popular.”

In fact I think the thread is becoming longer, stronger and more popular even as we speak.

Mermaid, how long have you had them? I’m thinking of getting one done, but the pain frightens me. I’ve already pierced my tongue and navel, but the nipples…ouch. Still can’t decide.

(If you have any more questions you can e-mail me)

About 2 1/2 years. Yes it hurt like hell but just for a moment just like any other piercing. Take my advice get them both done at the same time cause you will want them to match. Also it’s cheaper if you get them done at he same time. Word of advice, if you are large breasted, have barbells put in initially, it is a lot more comfortable.

And you have to be fastidious with cleaning and such cause they take a few weeks to completely heal. After they heal it’s nothing but fun, fun fun.

The good part is they look just…lovely right away.

I’m not sure, but I’m just guessing that Mermaid has large breasts…

I’m psychic, don’t ask me how I know the things I do. I don’t try to find lost children or pets, I concentrate on breast size over the internet. The pay isn’t terribly good, but the dreams are worth it. 😉

I don’t know is 38DD very big?

Maybe I should just try beating the threadbeast to death with these things. Nothing else has worked.
