When I eventually got a tattoo it didn't hurt, it was done on my buffalo hump at the base of my neck it didn't hurt. My friends who were with me as support because I was scared and I slept through it.

I remember at 20 yrs old putting a darning needle through my nostril because I wanted a nose piercing and getting it stuck in the inner stretchy part of my nare and thinking get through I ended up getting a thimble so there was a hard object so the needle wouldn't pierce my septum and it didn't hurt.

I remember at 21 the piercing gun getting stuck and my right ear being partially pierced instead of getting out of the chair I said to her to pull it out and re-pierce it again and the pharmacist assistant looking at me in horror and saying are you sure...

What made me share this is that people thought I was strange because I subjected myself to these things and wasn't in pain and the fact that I flipped on the TV and there was a documentary on people who challenge societies view of what is normal and there was a woman having a scarification procedure on her right breast and was talking to the interviewer with not an ounce of pain in her voice or a whince on her face made me wonder if she was dissociating or something

Have any of you guys noticed this in your life or can't recall having these procedures performed but have the finalised result on you somewhere?
