stretched lobes

Earlobes containing earrings that are stretching sufficiently beyond the base 18G posts that most people get pierced with.

Most people don't consider the process of gauging to stretched lobes "acquired" until you get to 0g, or zero gauge.

After slipping the taper through the healed piercing and following with the jewelry, I now had 1/2" stretched lobes.

Richie Hawtin

Also known as the plastikman, Richie Hawtin spins records in the class Detroit Techno sense. He also remixes other works.

Lately, however, he's been putting out things that are surprisingly dashboard and reznor, complete with whining vocals.

While I'm usually rocking out to hard drum and bass or jungle, I always have room to stop and listen to Richie Hawtin.
