I was working at McDonald’s drive through when I was a teenager. I had this customer come through who looked like the type of guy who is 40 and living in his mother’s basement. At the window, He asked me why I did that to my ears, I gave my reasons politely and he said “you look like a f**king Zulu” and sped up to the next window. Whether or not I should have spit in his food is something I think about everytime this topic comes up.
I’m usually around little kids, because I volunteer and when they see my ears, they ask “did that hurt?” “Can I see your hole?” Or “how do you put them in??”
drunk strangers like to put there finger threw my tunnles(they are 25mm/one inch)…my neice likes to take my gages out and put them back in…shes done it since she was about 2..she definitely gotten better at it over the years..lol
“Can I stick my finger in your ear?” has always cracked me up. Or “Can I see how big the hole is?” But my favorite question that I get asked all the time is, “Did it hurt?”
I’m a 00g and at my place of employment (a very busy casual dining full-service restaurant), they’re very accepting of stretched ears. One of my managers even has 1/2 inch ears. As I am taking a customer’s order, he looks intently at my ears and asks, very seriously, “They let you have those? Those holes in your ears?”
After pausing briefly and processing the utter silliness of what I just heard, I said, “Well… yes, I’m here, aren’t I?”
Hard to control the eye-roll on that one.
