. . . or at least they try to.
This guy was arrested for trying to run down his landlady with a minivan. But he don’t care. Judging by that expression, he’s expecting the mothership to beam him back up to Planet Snakebrows annnny second now.

Did the landlady have to pick him out at an identity parade?
Heh, I must say, the face on his neck with his adam’s apple as a nose is rather funny. ^^ But ugly as hell, none the less…
I hope he realizes that all subsequent Star Wars movies will be CGI
^Win.
WIN INDEED
OMFG People are so stupid….That is about all I can say for this one…Ugh!
Am I the only one that thinks he is kinda cute? Totally insane, obvi, but kinda cute?
Maybe he used to be. Kinda hard to tell at this point.
Used to be, maybe………
I was just thinking that! He’d be super cute if he hadn’t gone crazy.
Cute in a…Little Nicky kind of way, perhaps
without the horns and scarring, and perhaps hair, i would hit that. eyebrow tattoos dont bother me, i dont consider them ugly or stupid [unless they were like... eyebrow tattoos of little penises or something], but scaring and implants i cant abide. his neck demon with adam’s apple nose amuses me.
I must agree that he has very beautiful eyes. They look very nice and a little sad. But it is probably better that he is straight forward with his madness, that way he can’t go all Ted Bundy on everyone.
I think he has a Pharaoh Akhenaten thing going on with the long, even features.
You think he has the Pharaoh’s lucious hips as well?
no you’re not….I’d do him.
What about that design wrapping around his head and down his cheeks? Is that some sort of scarification, or just hair?
It looks like scarification to me. It’s very clearly indented when it comes down onto his face like sideburns. Plus, you can see from the stubble on his head that he’s got darker hair.
It is scarification, and done very well. I am going to presume that he works in the bodmod industry or is a musician. His eyebrows are permanently tattooed on and it looks like he may have had his original eyebrow hair permanently removed first. I know three guys who did the same – two of which have subdermal implants in addition to ink there – and they had laser hair removal first.
So, he had someone cut sideburns into his flesh? Ouch! Was he trying to make a shaving accident look intentional?
Yeah, it’s scarification. He lives in my city and they just showed the report on him. The scar is a Spartan Helmet.
He’s trying so hard for a “look”. But all I can think is a dismissive, “Well, that’s ugly. Next!”
Tats. Piercings. Scarification. Implants. Only thing that is missing is branding. And sense.
Word.
Somebody’s mommy didn’t hug him enough. Jeez. Poor guy. How much self-hate do you have to have pent up to do this to yourself?
I know, right? To not even want to look HUMAN anymore? Christ, somebody call a therapist.
I’d say he’d be a rather interesting individual to be friends with.
If you like your friends to be ultra self absorbed, I suppose so.
Nah, he doesn’t seem like he would be. Most of the people I’ve met with extreme modifications aren’t the shallow, self-absorbed type. Or boring, for that matter.
….Keep in mind that this is the mugshot taken when he tried to run down his landlady…. I should think that the idea of self-absorption would come from his attempted murder, even if it doesn’t come from his body mod. I think it’s very interesting when people use all they truly have in the world (their body, the only permanent belonging), to make a statement or create art on themselves. And, yes, I absolutely love the face on the neck with the Adam’s Apple nose. And I think he would be absolutely adorable if he wasn’t an attempted murderer. I might even look past the body mod….
just because you like body mods doesnt mean youre self absorbed. maybe he just feels this is how he’s supposed to look.
he does look like he’d be an interesting friend… although i try not to be friends with someone attempts vehicular homicide. i say “try” because i do have a friend who hit my other friend with her car… but it was just a love tap
Except when he tries to run you over.
Oh, snap! (pun intended, too)
* ow *
Did ya’ll forget the part where he TRIED TO RUN OVER HIS LANDLADY?
I don’t want to be friends with this dude no matter how many implants he’s got.
Yeah, I try not to be friends with people who try to commit vehicular homicide.
It’s kind of amazing how people are judged for their self expression. Body modification is no different than dying your hair, getting a nose job, or body building. Come down off your high horses. You may view it as un-attractive, but that doesn’t mean the people who choose to modify themselves are any less intelligent as human beings (Except obviously this guy, for running down his landlady in a minivan).
Please. Body modifications of this type are VERY different than dying your hair, getting a nose job and body building. It’s absolutely absurd to assert otherwise.
The difference? These body modifications are far outside societal norms and thus solicit completely different responses from that society.
I agree with you on the judgement about intelligence. You simply can’t tell from the tats whether the person is bright or not. However, you can make certain assumptions about their attitudes and sensibilities since those are written in ink on their skin…..
well said
Nah… I’d prefer to judge him for trying to run over his landlady in a mini-van… mini-van? He doesn’t strike me as your usual mini-van driver. Huh.
i know, that made me LOL. you wanna see a judgement? it made me think “maybe he lives in florida!”
in reality people are judged for dying their hair, getting a nose job and body building. it’s just that those facts are not so “in your face” as massive body modifications and visible tattoos are.
in a utopian world noone would be judged on anything other than who they were as a person. however this isn’t utopia so don’t expect people to not judge other people even if it’s wrong.
and who says dying your hair etc isn’t self expression? everything we do is an expression of who we are in some way or another especially when it affects our outward appearance.
eventually mainstream will get used to body mods and tats and the level of judgement will simmer down. of course then everyone will be judging the next emerging fad (body modding through breaking and reseting limbs at weird angles? smells? genetics modifications?).
People are going to judge you for not doing those things as well. Or for things you can’t control.
I get nasty messages from people whom are on the Cheeseburger Network because I’m fat. (I have polycystic ovary syndrome which can cause glucose intolerance which makes one fat. I’m working on it but my endocrinologist pretty much said my only hope is a gastic bypass and I’m NOT doing that, I’d rather be fat!) They’ve even hunted me down on other sites like my WordPress blog or Formspring and posted things like “Do you realize everyone on Cheezeburger thinks you’re a fat ugly troll?” or nasty messages on my blog post about how much I still miss my dog, Audrey, whom had to be put to sleep last year at the age of 16 after suffering two seizures. I finally had to shut off comments all together because I was sick and tired of “U R SO FAT/UGLY” – I mean, really! At least type “You” and “are” correctly before insulting me!
My mom has spinal stenosis and had back surgery for that and cysts in her spinal cord. As a result she’s legally handicapped and has to spend part time in a wheelchair. She also happens to be fat and people automatically assume she’s in the chair because of her weight. They don’t want to believe the truth. In fact, one time a young couple threw things at her legs to see if she could move them.
Now I can’t say I don’t judge people. Though admittedly I try not to after spending so much time being belittled and bullied. However, I am only human.
In this guy’s case, seeing the tattoos and the horns, all I can think is “This guy needs some serious therapy.”
Of course, seeing the part about the mini-van might have something to do with it.
You know, there are some tattoos/piercings/art you can get away with and keep a job…
Waaaait – with the pink t-shirt, maybe his job is to be the sissiest devil-boy to ever become Backdoor Bubba’s cell-mate?
Pink is a vogue color for prison garb these days. All the rage in Arizona.
He may be the sissiest devil-boy to ever become Backdoor Bubba`s cell mate but I bet you wouldn`t be brave enough to tell him that to his face.
Maybe his landlady called him a sissy, just before he tried to run her down with a minivan.
The arrest report sez he was wearing that shirt. Looking like he does and living in frickin’ Tulsa … I would bet this guy has some pretty thick skin. Maybe those bumps on the top of his head are from his oversized chones.
I doubt Mike would without being given a reason by the dude. That said, the policy report says he’s 5’10 and 125 pounds. Despite the Hellboy look, I think I would have a hard time being threatened by him without him pointing a motor vehicle at me. He’s a little fellow. He probably ran over the landlady because she was about to give him a beat down.
Crap, police not policy.
i am so very weirded out by the scarring(?) down the sides of his face
Maybe he’ll find Jesus in prison, and when he gets out, become a Mormon missionary.
I would love to see that in action.
This happened in my city, Tulsa, OKLAHOMA! Watching our local news anchor trying to explain that “It is believed that the lumps on his forehead are some sort of implant” as opposed to an injury from the police or such, was freaking hysterical!
LOL! Livin’ on Tulsa Time
He’s trying to overcompensate because at home he has a My Little Pony collection and reads romantic manga, and like to press wildflowers.
I about peed my pants after reading your post… press wildflowers… snicker. That explains the mini-van!
Don’t *all* lumberjacks drive minivans?
Most of you are a bunch of dumb***es! Just because he looks different than you doesn’t make him stupid. I know this guy and normally he is intelligent and laid back. Haven’t talked to him about this situation yet. But yeah quit judging a book by it’s cover
They just don’t understand why anyone would want to make such radical changes to his body, and are frightened or repulsed by it. Personally, I think it’s interesting. It looks like he’s still a work in progress, and if so, I hope to see the final result.
If this man is, as you indicate, normally a decent sort of person, then I hope everything works out for him and he’s able to conquer the issues that caused his current difficulty.
Bless you for standing up for your friend.
It’s sad that the first thing I noticed about this guy was how stoned he looks with those eyebrows, not the horns, right?
I was thinking with the mini-van action (yes… I am hung up on that one) it was more of a botox kinda thing.
He does have very handsome features- you can see that he could be (was) conventionally very good looking. The scarification, the tattoos, ok- but what really grosses me out is the horns. They look like sprouting breats on his head. Now that is not attractive.
also, I really want to know: how does one get piercings (or are they implants) on the top of one’s head? What about the piercings(?) below the “horns?”
Can someone explain the process to me. I am really curious about how that’s done.
oops, I meant “sprouting breasts” (not breats).
They kind of do look like little wide spread breasts…
The ones on top of his head, as well as the ones below his bumps/horns are transdermal implants, and the bumps/horns are subdermal implants. Transdermals are done by making a small incision and placing a flat base underneath the skin, with an internally-threaded protrusion facing upward. You can see the threaded parts of the ones below his bumps. Different jewelry can be worn in those.
The bumps/horns, again, are subdermal. Those also are done via making an incision in the skin. Material choice usually is implant-grade titanium or silicone. In this case, I’m fairly certain it is silicone.
Also of note is that his labret hole has been stretched laterally. I know a number of people who have done similarly. I’m not sure about his ears, however; I cannot tell whether they have been incised or if the tornado-shape part is inked on. I kinda like that.
klo: better than sprouting beasts, no? :p
I like that, sprouting beasts . . . and thanks for the info on the transdermal implants. He can change his implants to suit his mood
I am pretty sure that the piercings are dermal anchors http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs26/f/2008/098/b/3/Info_Dermal_Anchor_by_2Face_Tattoo.jpg
or maybe skin divers, which are basically the same, but have smaller plates under the skin.
You’re describing the jewelry. I described the type of piercings. =)
I’m guessing he makes his living in a sideshow, as I can’t imagine a conventional employer hiring him. As for trying to run down his landlady… I’m guessing the horn implants are pressing against his frontal lobes, making him less than rational. Either that, or the meth just got out of control…
he is a sideshow worker. I know this guy. He has always been a d-bag even before the body mods.
wasn’t this guy on trading spouses once. not a joke i think he really was, he and his wife work at a freak show….so you know at least its a tax write off.
ThIs guy is on bodymod dot com… He’s really good at what he does and he is super nice
That’s an invalid domain up for sale, and bodymod.org is crap. Maybe you mean BME, aka bmezine.com, which I consider far better? Either way, how where do you get the “super nice” part from, especially considering he tried to run someone over, using a motor vehicle? A mini van? LOL! Did he steal his mum’s van?
Actually, he is a very nice guy, and he hasn’t run anyone over. Who ever posted this was making a joke and everyone here assumed it to be correct..
Whatever happened to “don’t believe everything you read”?
No one cares because no one knows him on here.
Not a look I dig personally (and it doesn’t quite “gel” together for me), but I’m really interested in it from a “takes all types” point of view, the scarification is very creative especially. Some people just love to modify the natural – some application of transhumanism I guess.
This guy works at Best Buy, for sure!
Body modification and nose jobs are the same thing, granted they provoke different kinds of responses. maybe you can’t determine a person’s intelligence based on a tattoo or modification, but you can be pretty darn close. i mean, do you not follow this site at all?
Are you sure that’s scarification and not branding? I really know nothing about this sort of thing. It IS fascinating to look at, though. And kinda cool. But it really limits his future employment possibilities.
It could have been done using electrocauterisation, but the edges are so smooth, which, to me, indicates use of a scalpel and by a very steady hand. I’m far from an expert on this, but the brandings I’ve seen have all had “rougher” edges. Whomever did the work on this guy did a fantastic job and cut a very consistent depth.
Dang, you really gotta hate yourself to look like that. Tattooing “I do not wish to be hired at anything ever” in the face would be faster.
Hmm, well, I guess that’s one way to stretch out your forehead skin and get rid of wrinkles, albeit temporarily.
The minivan thing is weirding me out, though — maybe he was running late to pick up the kids from soccer practice?
Could be. You know how traffic can get.
The minivan thing didn’t weird me out. The first thing I thought of was band equipment, painting gear or whatever. Construction stuff came to mind but then I thought no, his ass would be kicked from here to craptown.
Kinda reminds me of someone from Star Trek – Next Generation
If anyone is interested, please have a look at `World of weird- Skull Implant` on Youtube. It features a guy who got breast implants for the naked lady tattoo on his arm. He also has 3 metal spikes coming out of the top of his head and a silicon, star shaped skull implant on his forehead.
as woman who has many visible tattoos (forearms, feet and legs) fo 30+ years, out of the ordinary bod mods do make you a source of curiosity, stares and whispers. it makes you a little tough on the outside and almost unemployable. his mods are not my cup of tea, but you have to give him points for being that brave. bravo mini van wielding guy,,,
Dude looks like a piggy bank.
Oh my God, you’re right. Now that’s all I can see when I look at the picture.
LMAO, no kidding! For some reason I have a strong urge to lop those horns off with pruning shears.
They made him take out his ear gauges- that’s the part I keep staring at.
..and the lip plate is out too. Which ends up making the lower lip look like it has it’s own dimple chin.
Eye bleach eye bleach!… Ahhh
I’d consider myself pretty open minded but doing this to your body is just.
/facepalm
Hmmm, I wonder where they do that kind of thing, lasering off your entire eyebrows. I’ve been lasered from the neck down pretty extensively, but at my salon they’ve always told me they’d only laser the bit between the eyebrows (of folks that have a monobrow) but not the eyebrows themselves. As going too close to the eyes may cause damage etc.???
probably had electrolosis on his eyebrows? That would take quite a while to get rid of all the hair though. (maybe he just waxes frequently)?
1) I don’t care how he looks….
Therefore
2) I don’t think he looks better or worse after all his mods then before….
Therefore
3) I think he was profoundly stupid for paying people money and suffering pain to change his looks…..
Because
4) I don’t care how he looks.
His parents must be so proud.
I`d be willing to bet that he has also split his tongue to look like a snake.
Jackass. There is such a thing as trying too hard.
Dudes trying to turn himself into a Zabrak! (Star wars, google the terms)
Doing an alright job though, I think he’s about 40% done. Must give him props for his commitment to George Lucas but no doubt he’ll get sued.
If he’s like this for any reason other than Zabrak love, he fails, and he has cartoon bruises on his head!
I’m guessing he doesn’t have a job in the front office.
I kept on thinking that he looked familiar…
http://rodytoy.com/Rody-Red.htm
the scariest thing about this is that there are probably girls out there that want to have sex with a dude that thinks he is Satan. I mean, cuz he keeps doing it right? so it must work occasionally… aagh!
DUDE, this guy is from my city! We lived on opposite sides of town, but it’s still there.
Jacksonville,FL?
OMG ME TOO!!! except i live in the suburbs of this here town.
… isn’t this that Lizardman guy?
nah man he’s wayyyyy more intense than this guy!
This is just tragic, I can only imagine the horror that hot days represent to a person with no eyebrows. Plus I’ve always wanted to get a mallet and play whack a fool with a person who had sub-dermal implants.
Kinda of reminds me of the only male Diclonius that gets killed by Lucy in Elfen Lied.
Where do you get horns like that?? Are they implanted in his skin? Am I the only one who thinks that’s both sick and cool? Will I ever know. . .?
just wait til he starts lookin old and his face droops lol
That…was one complicated childhood.
This guy and myself look like we could be brothers.Really eerie.
I know jesse personally and he is actually a very intelligent person. He is a creative person who doesn’t give a shit what anyone else thinks.
I swear to God, I’ve met this guy. At least, I really don’t think there are two of them. He talked to me at a tire store about how to hack into a DS.
Yeah, there are those that try WAY too hard.
Totally. He is obviously the type of person, that when you fisrt meet him, would be like; ‘hi, i’m (insert random name here), and i’m mad, i am, all my friends say i’m crazy!’. Eugh, the worst kind of person.
“There are those whose own vulgar normality is so apparent and stultifying that they strive to escape it. They affect flamboyant behavior and claim originality according to the fashionable eccentricities of their time. They claim brains or talent or indifference to mores in desperate attempts to deny their own mediocrity. These are frequently artists and performers, adventurers and wide-life devotees.
Then there are those who feel their own strangeness and are terrified by it. They struggle toward normalcy. They suffer to exactly that degree that they are unable to appear normal to others, or to convince themselves that their aberration does not exist. These are true freaks, who appear, almost always, conventional and dull.”
From the novel Geek Love by Katherine Dunn
(1989)
Except this neat and encompassing binary view isn’t confirmed by reality. But it’s sure comforting to the “normal”.
it’s not binary at all. I’m not saying it’s as neat and tidy, but whoever wrote that obviously has spent a lot of time with science nerds.
Example: some of the people I hang out with are suspension artists. I also work in a biochem lab. The suspension artists dress, well, as you might expect them to, but at heart they are pretty normal people. The biochem people tend to be genuinely (and, in my mind, delightfully) odd. A lot of them wear high-waisted khakis and random t-shirts. People that are really odd aren’t trying to prove it to anybody. I really think that their are further from the accepted norm than the people who choose to hang from the ceilings by putting hooks through their skins for art.
I’m not saying that everyone who is heavily modded isn’t strange (the dude above tried to kill his landlord; I would definitely say that he’s not rigidly adhering to social mores) or that everyone who doesn’t have tattoos is crazy freaky. I just think that the majority of people who try hard to look weird usually aren’t that weird at heart. Ain’t nothin’ wrong with that.
I think his actions do confirm that the “encompassing binary view” is in fact reality to everyone except…well, YOU!
Yeah, think Jeffery Dahlmer … Ted Bundy.
I’m not saying all ordinary people are secretly freaks. I’m saying you can’t tell a freak by looking at him/her.
