So how does it feel now that you have stretched your earlobes to shit because you were young & stupid enough to put a three inch disks in them?
Now you expect a ‘normal’ job & no one’s touching you with a ten foot Q-Tip so what’s the game plan now? Maybe you could use a twist tie to secure the loops behind your head.
Same goes for stupidly thought out tattoos, like getting Fuck You! tattooed on your knuckles. Nice one! —There’s A Fortune To Be Made in Earlobe Reconstructive Surgery

I enjoy when the lobe breaks and the person has to walk around with 4″ of lobe dangling. If you’re not bothering anyone you should be able to walk around foot long lobes. However, you will be judged on your appearance. Now I’m gonna try and not use the word “lobe” for at least the next 3 months.
Watch for an avalanche of scary clown tattoos. The tattoo sheeple have bleated. And these same dimwits will wonder why no one will hire them.
There was a chap on Global this morning who was carving pumpkins. I SWEAR I thought he was wearing a Halloween mask. He wasn’t… tats on his face, an unusually large nose ring and chopsticks in his matted hair all combined with a long camera shot, made the illusion. He seemed pleasant enough though…
And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain
I know that you can love me
When there’s no one left to blame
How is there a fortune to be made in ear lobe reconstruction surgery if they can’t find a job to pay for said reconstruction surgery?
Also, how fucking judgemental and closed minded are you OB (and several commenters), who cares what you look like and what you tattoo or pierce on your body? Have an open mind and accept people for what and who they are and maybe we can all go to sleep happy at night. Is it really that difficult to accept some one for who they are?
lol. I’m judging everyone about everything, from what they look like, to how they speak and carry themselves — and so is everyone else. Stop pretending you’re not just because you keep your opinion on the matter to yourself. Everything anyone does is a reflection on them, fact of life.
Yup you go out of your way to look like a freak don’t complain about discrimination.
I’ve got stretched earlobes, tattoos, and a high-paying, public-facing career. Stretched earlobes have never held me back professionally.
At least their different appearances are on the outside and not ashamed for people to see. I would say you are hiding your defects on the inside which is rather shameful. Get a life. I have no tats or ling ear lobes and I think those that do are fascinating. Be you
