Of course, ever piercing hurts. How much depends on your unique pain tolerance. Though these sorts of surface piercings are notorious for being more painful than a typical soft tissue piercing.
A word of warning though, these sorts of piercings don't really work. Even with the best placement, surface piercings reject almost 100% of the time. The hands aren't exactly what I would call the best placement.
Actually I would call it one of the worst placements possible. The hands are so high traffic, and come into contact with so much bacteria. There's honestly no chance you'll heal it.
It will reject. You could look into microdermal implants if you'd like, they tend to have a much higher success rate overall. However the placement is still an issue.
They don't tend to fair too well in very high traffic areas. If you didn't manage to pull it out (trust me it wouldn't be hard) this method would probably reject too. I'm not necessarily saying you shouldn't get the piercing.
You just need to ... more.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
