I am thinking of getting my tongue pierced ... a few at work say it does not hurt, but it's annoying when your tongue swells up. 2 others said it hurt like heck and couldnt stand it so they took it out. Does it hurt? Do you have nerves in the middle of your tongue? I figure if I can get 2 tatoos on the outsides of my ankles & one on my shoulder, I figure this cant be as bad? Anyone who's gone thru share your opinion!
