Express Yourself

by francie-lynch

Firstly, I'm not a body-shamer. To each their own (a good phrase, though grammatically incorrect), But sometimes I find it hard to understand The tatoos, the piercings, the colors and placements. The usual answer, if I dare ask:      I'mhxpressthinmythelf. Good for you. Does the diaper pin through your cheek Tell us you're a Dad or something.      Na. The quarter inch bolt and nut through your ear? Are you a machinist or a plumber, or something?      Na. The doll-house plates in your lips? Are you a Duck Dynasty fan? A member of the Audubon Society or something?      No. I'mapontingxprschmyselpth! Sorry, what was that?      I'mapontingxprschmyselpth. I'm sorry. I don't quite get what you're saying. I don't mean to be rude, But could you express those plates for a minute... I... I get it.
