Poll: What scars do you have?

[wwjdftw]

I have 2 or three large ones on my chest and lower neck from not thinking wile using a cutting torch... That was not a fun day


Heres the first picture on google that looks similar...

Its not as big and enflamed, but its in about the same place but extends down onto my right man boobie...

 

[ultrachicken]

I just discovered several scars on my knees
I haven't actually looked at my knees in a long time, now that I think about it

Also I have small scars all over my body

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Sure I have a few scars.
One on my right forearm from when I fell off a bridge onto some rocks, I was being an idiot and climbing on the outside of the guardrail with wet shoes who's laces refused to stay tied.
I have two scars on my right pinky finger, one from some metal thing on the bow of a boat and the other from a tomato slicer at McDonald's during the time I worked there. The latter one is the most bizarre because I'd grabbed the thing by it's freaken' handle.
I have a nice big burn scar on my right hand, which is another memento from working at McDonald's. Got a nice big splotch of hot grill acid (the shit used to clean the grills) and grease on the back of my hand.
I also have a scar on my right knuckle from punching through a the glass in a picture frame. The story behind that one I'm going to just leave to your imagination.
I have a few other scars on my hands from working as a PC repair technician. Working on the guts of PCs can be hard on the hands.

I have tons my favorite is a huge one on my back from a gold plated Makarov pistol that exploded when it was hit during a firefight it saved my life and chicks dig the scar.

What is weird for me it that a lot of times I will just randomly have scars appear on my body and have not idea how they got there. I try not to get scars, but usually they just happen. I also have some acne scars. There are two scars that actually stand to mention.

1. When I was rather young, I was walking off of the bus to my house when I tripped over a lot of junk left on the bus steps. I fell off on to the driveway. At first I prayed I didn?t hurt anything, though I did notice I gashed open the front of my pants. I didn?t see any cut, but I still was worried. When I was inside, I had to check, so I rolled up my pants and I had this two inch sized chunk missing out of my shin. It healed up nicely, but apparently rocks had gotten into the cut when I first fell, and to this day I still have gravel imbedded into my right shin.

2.I was at my locker, bent over organizing my books in my backpack, all ready to get home. Behind me these two kids were goofing off shoving each other in the hallway. One of them shoves the other toward the wall. That kid winds up falling on me, which slams my head into the locker. I see the jerk get up smiling and leave. I figure, you know what, I am just going to go home. I have a three-day weekend and I don?t care. Then I see a red dot hit my hand. I see a few more drops down on the ground. There is a damp feeling on my head. I just, cup my hand somewhere on my head and walk to the nurse?s office. Apparently I hit harder than I thought, because I was hit so hard I had a two-inch gash on top of my head. Of course, it took me a while to even see it, because I will tell you that head wounds bleed a lot!

 

[Toaster Hunter]

I have a three inch scar on my left wrist. i tell people I got it fighting vampire ninjas in a cage made out of adamantium armed only with a rusty soup can.

I actually got it cutting a box at work.

 

[ghostrider409895]

I have a TON of little scars from assorted punctures, slashes and other spastic moments. The good ones include:

A scar in my left eyebrow from playing tackle (American) football and getting nailed in the face by the guy trying to bring me down.

My right index finger has a long scar running down the top of it from where I was bitten by a dog and had to pull my finger out (lost the nail too).

My personal favorite: I have a blue dot in between my knuckles on my right hand where I was stabbed with a pencil in third grade by a kid who apparently didn't want to give up the drinking fountain just yet.

My grandma actually has a pencil scar like what you have. She told me that a classmate of hers seemed to thing it was funny to poke people hard with pencils and one day stabbed my grandmother in her right arm.

I also have a blue scar on the palm of my hand. Unfortunately it is not from a pencil attack like my grandma and your scars. I was young and when I got a large splinter in my hand, I was very difficult and when my mom tried to remove it, it broke off in my hand. To this day I know exactly where it is by the blue dot on the palm of my left hand.
I wonder if I can still remove the splinter or not?

Also, what is it with people stabbing others with pencils anyway? I mean with all of the pencil attacks it is a wonder why schools haven't started treating pencils as weapons. After all, "The Dark Knight" clear showed pencils can be a leathal weapon.

I can't count that many and keep track. I have more scars on my left hand than most people have in all. I was born with complex syndactyly of my pinky, ring, and middle finger of my left hand. And after 12 surguries, and a miracle of God and modern medicine you have to look close to see that those fingers are kinda bent and really scarred.

 

[ribonuge]

I have a X shaped scare on my left middle finger from when I ripped it open on barbed wire. I was a foolish and adventurous youngin' who didn't notice nuttin'. First and only time I have needed an operation.

 

[Flight]

I have lots, but the one I like looks like an upside-down horseshoe next to what looks like "III". I got it by falling down when I was nine.

 

[arsenicCatnip]

I have a ton, mostly from cat attacks (mine, my mom's, my roommate's...)

One that bears mentioning is the little pit in my skin under my left eyebrow's arch.
When I was in first grade, the school built a new playground and repaved the sidewalk. The first day they opened the area up again, I went running across the sidewalk. And being clumsy even at an early age, I tripped, fell, and went skidding on the left side of my face across the cement. Took off almost all the skin on that side... and I had pebbles stuck into my flesh.

Flash-forward to 12 years later. I had a pimple beneath my eyebrow, and thought I could pop it. It took a long while, and when the zit finally popped, a tiny round thing came out through the opening in my skin when I squeezed it. Turned out to be a pebble that had been underneath my skin for years and I'd never realized.

The scar itself is much less noticeable than most of the others I have (due to position and size... you have to be at 'kissing distance' to see it at all), but I think it's kinda cool.

 

[PrimoThePro]

I have 3, so I put "lots"
2 are from a knife fight, I barely got away from that one.
And 1 from my brother, he got a sword, and thought it would be funny to pretend to slash it at me when I came around the corner, he didn't know I was running.

In chronological order:

Top lip: I was born with a cleft lip. As a baby I had surgery to repair it, but the scar's still really obvious. It makes my lip peak off-centre. Doesn't bother me, though - I think it looks interesting.

Eyelid and temple: chickenpox scars. The one on my eyelid is right on the edge, and no eyelashes will grow there. You wouldn't notice it normally, but if you look closely it looks odd.

Hip: Big one from a bone graft operation when I was 8.

Elbow: Two small scars from a car accident - got cut by some broken glass from a window. One's a short line, the other's a tiny triangle. The interesting thing is that the triangular one was a much worse injury than the other - it was quite deep - but now it's barely visible. The line's much more obvious, even though it wasn't much more than a scratch.

And none of those - except maybe the chickenpox scars - were my fault. (I wasn't driving the car, in case you were wondering.)

 

[Oilerfan92]

- Cut size one on my hand from knife fight with like 50 guys.... Seriously though, i was playing with my dog and he jumped up and scratched my hand

- couple minor scrapes that havent healed

- The front of my right knee is scared up from when i fell of a bike with shorts on a gravel sidewalk and scraped most of the skin of the front.

 

[SL33TBL1ND]

I have many mental scars, but I'm not sure if that's what you're asking.

 

[gamefreakbsp]

I have a scar on my left wrist from being stabbed, and I have a scar on my right leg from a broken, jagged edge of a chair.

 

[aPod]

My hands and arms are covered in scars, as i imagine most peoples would be. Got plenty up and down my legs and arms... little too much "extreme sports" then i got one going down my face. And one very well hidden but large scar in my pelvic region from when i wiped out surfing and landed hard on the fin.

Scariest scar of my life that one. Came inches away from being a eunich.

 

[darkfire613]

I've got a scar right next to my nose from where I cut my face open when I was four. I've got numerous scars on my legs from where I used to scratch open mosquito bites as a child. I've got small cuts up and down my arms from my 8-year-old brother and my cats. I've got a scar on my arm where a friend of mine pinched me ("If I pinch you it will hurt!" "I bet it won't." "you want me to try?" "sure"), and I've got a scar on my elbow from where I fell off my bike and got a pebble embedded in it.

 

[Housebroken Lunatic]

I have quite a few. Don't feel to comfortable discussing them though. Mainly because a whole lot of them didn't come from accidents, nor were they self-inflicted.

As to my opinion of them. Well it's nice to know that im not going to leave a perfectly flawless corpse when I die. But some of them are constant reminders of rather embarassing situations...
