My wife calls them "nasty". I don't know if that helps.

Where people get like little embedded stainless steel horns and the like? I think they are called implants.

I believe they're called "disgusting".

Fuck, Dan beat me to it.

What's so disgusting about having little horns? I think it's kind of neat actually.

I was totally going to post "You would!" before I realized that SF wrote that, not NYC. COME ON PEOPLE, WORK WITH ME HERE.

I'll bet plenty of Killing Joke fans have them.

implant makes sense. i thought maybe there was a more punk rok name for them. the kidz have names for everything these days.

Call them pimplants.

What's on Seal's cheeks?

Heidi Klum.

Seal has some sort of skin/facial wasting condition. I don't believe it's scarification or anything like that.

xpost:

Depending on which story you've read, Seal's facial scars are the result of either a motor bike accident or a bizarre allergic reaction to some meds.
Both are plausible enough.
