Nipple piercing with toothpicks is not a good idea. Why won't people stop trying that?

Ouch! I didn't know that, but know that I think of it, it's surprising the number isn't greater. There are lot of nitwits out there!

I'll bet the majority of these accidents happen in my home state of Texas. Texas has a large population of tooth pickers.
