 When Tats and and piercings became something pop-culture and vapid celebrities did along side frat boys & sorority girls something like this was predictable. It's the ordinary response from a counter-culture to the cultural absorption of their culture; respond with something even more extreme and shocking.  So stupid and unplesant is sort of the point, tats and multiple piercings used to be regarded the same way.

I guess Jeffrey Dahmer was just trying to get a new fad started.  He was ahead of his time.  Poor guy was just misunderstood!

They should just stick USB ports on the ends of those things and sell it as making your brain "ready for digital".
