Some millennials are ditching engagement rings in favor of embedding gems in their fingers. 'We notice lately a lot of people coming looking for that,' Sam Abbas, owner of NYC Ink Studio in West Village, explained to CBS New York. But with any piercing, Abbas explains that it is imperative to clean the piercing at least twice a day and have it done by a seasoned professional.

can't wait for the De Beers commercials touting engagement piercings.

Leave it to millennials to come up with something even stupider than tongue piercings.

Although I really can’t understand the need to pierce one’s body, I’m glad that they are smart enough to get rid of the stupid “two months salary” rule.

So now when you get robbed, the thugs will have to slice off a finger. Good thinking.

What if you’re mugged, and the mugger doesn’t care how it’s mounted?

[headstamp 2]

I have enough trouble with splinters. Metal and otherwise.

[albie]

Why do they always feel a need to desecrate themselves? White guilt?

[Tax-chick]

That’s gross.

[Toespi]

I can see divorce getting even more painful.

“I’m glad that they are smart enough to get rid of the stupid “two months salary” rule.”

Rules, I don't need no stinkin rules! Yeah I agree with you on that one and backed that up with much less than 2 months salary. Greatest marketing gimmick ever.

This self-mutilation makes eating Tide Pods seem downright hygienic.

[lacrew]

Perhaps millenials only make 50 bucks a month.

[GOPJ]

Just great - now ‘pick-pockets’ will be carrying knives...

[libh8er]

I am guessing they will cover the diamond with fake skin when they are out cheating. Or does that even matter to millenials.

[exPBRrat]

Another vulgar consequence of indoctrinated negro worship.

[Bryanw92]

>>Perhaps millenials only make 50 bucks a month.

Nah. That’s their weekly salary.

[BenLurkin]

What an odd worldview you have.

[tet68]

They probably met at a Tide Pod challenge.
Held hands as they threw up.

You’d think a simple zirconium nose ring would be
a lot cheaper and more stylish.

[BradyLS]

I remember when they pushed “a quarter of your yearly salary.”

I’m not into body modification, mutilaton, or staining. But this seems the least invasive of them all. If it doesn’t work, just pop it out and let it heal over?
