Dept. of totally random: This morning my boss saw a teenage patient who had lots of piercings all over his face and one on his back. I'm completely mystified, and afraid to image Google. Where exactly does one pierce one's back? On purpose?
Whatever happened to the still beating heart of a virgin? No one has any standards anymore.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Still, I have some fuel for poking around eBay. You and Betsy are annoying like that.
I prefer to think of it as helpful. Or enabling.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Where on earth does one pierce one's back? On purpose?
Was the kid paralysed?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I can't picture it -- backs are too flat to pierce! (Also, how do you lie down without it poking you? Wouldn't that be incredibly annoying to sleep with?)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You can pierce any flesh, really.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Where exactly does one pierce one's back?
Typically, down either side of your spine. But, could be all over, too.

Nope.
I just had to Google (for spellchecking) another body part that he had pierced and got a mild shock (though at least I spelled it right) -- I thought it was the little cupid's-bow at the upper lip, but it turned out to be at the other end of the body. For future reference, frenulum!=philtrum.

The only back piercing I can think of (whitefonted for the squeamish) is people who run two rows of piercings down the middle of their back so they can run ribbon through it like the lacings on a corset. It's usually only done for photos and kink play parties, because those sorts of piercings don't last. There's not enough fleshy tissue, so they won't stay.
Other than that, I don't know.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Oh, I love those belts, and I bet they would look good on me if I could find the right skirts.
