QUESTION: Is 27 too old to get your nose pierced? A friend of mine you’ve definitely never met was wondering

Let’s say I have this FRIEND. She is 27 years old, easy-going, really nice & sooo funny. Maybe she writes a blog. Maybe she is a Taurus. Maybe she enjoys good tunes, comfortable yet adorable fashions, and catching up w/pals over a beer or two or five.

Let’s say this hypothetical young Brooklyn lady was considering getting her nose pierced. What would your reaction be? Would you be like, “Oh, seriously?” & make a sorta rude face? Would you be like, “That’s interesting because I thought you said earlier you were 27 and not 15?” Would you consider de-friending her on Facebook and/or Myspace?

Please note My Friend is considering Option #1 (cute super-tiny diamond stud), NOT Option #2 (freaky-deaky Hot Topic weaponry through the face):

Option #1:


Option #2:


But 27 is too late to bother, right? You’d be like, “Whoa, girlfriend. BOAT MISSED.”

I mean, continuing to sport a nose-piercing from ‘96 (when Friend first considered it) would be OK. But a newly-stabbed diamond chip through the nose— no matter how adorable— is kind of loser-y in your late 20’s, right? Like it would only cause friends & strangers to imagine the wearer is desperate to hold onto the few shreds of youth which are slowly but surely slipping away???
