Piercing Palooza

One day, while my husband was standing in line at a gas station, a guy was standing in front of him with a gazillion bars and rings pierced throughout his face, and tattoos covering almost all of his body.  As my husband was blankly starting at him, he turns around and says, "What are you looking at?". The reply, "What do you think I'm looking at?"  Isn't that why people do that?
