Scars

[Cid Silverwing]

I got scars all over my feet. Not my thighs or calves, but the FEET. 5 surgeries, 2 on left and 3 on right, because I was born with my feet glued together so the docs had to cut my legs up.

Locomotion problems.

 

[Biek]

I have a few scars on my left hand. One saw from a saw and one from a boxcutter. I was quite the handyman as a kid. I also recently have one on my left elbow after I fell off my bike.

 

[Yankmy Armoff]

Hehe, I have a whole collection (my skin is 'prone to scarring' apparently). Here's a few of the best.

Under my right eye, 1 inch long from when I tripped aged 18 months, landed face first on a cricket stump (so I'm told) and smashed my cheekbone (narrowly missing my eye).

Inner left wrist (several cm long parallel tiny things) from when my dad slipped with a saw while I was steadying a plank he was cutting.

Chicken pox scarring scattered around my upper torso. I got it when I was 18, didnt itch once, just scarred.

Right index finger (2 inches, down the side) surgery to repair severed nerve after a moving house accident aged 13.

Back of left hand (almost perfectly circular burn) picked up in the course of winning a bar bet about stubbing cigarettes out.

Not to mention the ones picked up from climbing, caving, camping etc.

Well mine seems to be hard to beet stupidity-wise. Yey I am the biggest idiot.

Since you misspelled, "yay," you forgot your commas (Though they don't HAVE to be there...), and you won't even tell us about it. Sorry if this has already been mentioned.

Getting an onion? Is that REALLY worth it?

Like we need to know THAT.

Sorry for being a jerk. Can't help it.

On topic:

Do you mean mental scars or physical scars? I have plenty of both.

Well aren't you so very kind. You make a post completely not contributing and simply insulting three people. Also thanks for fixing a post I made last year. It needed to be done just to show how awesome you are in every way didn't it.

Sorry. You've really got a point there. To be on topic, I have a scar on my knee that's at least four inches long, and a scar on my forehead that my parents claim to exist.

I have marks on my nose where allergy attacked me when I was 7. I had medicine that protected against almost every aspect of the disease - throat, lungs... So it had to materialize somewhere - a nasty scar on the nose. ON the nose. It took 3 weeks before it came off, and the mark is still visible.

Oh, do wounds inside of us count? I have a scar in my throat after a tonsil removal surgery. It's because there was an abscess behind my right tonsil. It had to be removed and it hurt much more and longer than it normally does. Well, crap happens.

I've got a ton. I have a few on my left arm. My hands are a roadmap of pain from burns, cuts, chemical burns, dog bite. You name it, my hand's probably been through it. I've worked in kitchens since I was 14, so about 15 years now, always had little accidents here and there. My favorite is when I slipped and reached out to catch my balance, I grabbed the first thing at hand, and it happened to be the grill that was still on. So yeah, you know those marks you get on steaks from the grill? That's what the palm of my right hand looks like. Actually kinda proud of that one. I have other, numerous scars from random accidents all over too, but I think I've bored y'all enough for now.

 

[Anachronism]

I have three (arguably four) scars on my face. Apparently I was quite clumsy as a child.

I have one under my left eyebrow and another on the bridge of my nose from when I fell over face-first on a metal climbing frame. I had to have two layers of stitches: one in the muscle layer, one in the skin.

I've also got a scar on each lip. It looks like two scars, but it's really just one that spreads over both of them. I'm not entirely sure how I got that one, but chances are it was also from falling face-first into something.

 

[crazy-j]

i have 5 scars

1 above my left eye and 1 below it
1 on my right rist (im not emo, i was lifting something that had a nail sticking out on the bottom) 1 on my right arm and 1 on my left arm

 

[lacktheknack]

I have a small one from putting my hand through a dresser falling out of bed one ungodly night.

 

[minarri]

I have a bunch of scars, but fortunately most of them are small or are located in easily-hidden spots. One from falling at a creek and kneeing a sharp rock, one from falling on my bike and having the pedal rub some skin down to the dermis, and of course a bunch of little ones on my elbows since I'm a frequent blood donor.

The one that resulted in me getting a lot of shit as a child is the chicken pox scar located just above my right eyebrow which, as many people have reminded me, looks like someone pushed a straw to my face.

The one that always gets good stories flowing is the one on the outside of my right foot. The night before graduating from high school, I poorly executed a smash while playing table tennis with my brother and landed on my foot in such a way that two or three little bones broke and a tendon was pulled out of its sheath. A year later I underwent surgery to repair the tendon, hence the inch-long scar on my foot.

I was chewing on a pen and fell i have a 3 inch scar at the top of my mouth.

Oddly enough I'm reminded of The Dark Knight. :\

I've got one on my forehead, when a bike steer almost impaled my head. I got one on my knee when it got sliced by a clamp (I dived while catching a frisby in low water, I didn't even feel the clamp cutting in my knee, it was extremely sharp). I've also got a big one on my elbow, I scraped the floor once when I fell with my bike, the skin of my elbow was peeled over my upper arm. Icky stuff.
Also my arms are FULL of scars from 18 years of cat handeling, I've got some small one's on my hand from playing rough with my grandma's dog, and my legs are almost completely scar tissue because I had (still have, kinda) a nasty scratching problem (probably a combination of an allergy and stress, the stress is taking over right now).

 

[Ben Legend]

I have one on my forehead, thankfully, its not visible. But i can feel where it is.

But i think scars can be quite cool, and they don't put me off girls at all.

 

[iggyus]

I have one on my forehead when I gave a headbutt to some stone stairs when I was 2 and I have a large cut on my stomach from an operation

 

[Sable Gear]

Mine are lame and accidental:
-little spot on my middle left knuckle from falling on concrete
-another little line on my left index finger from cutting sausage
-small spot on my right leg from chicken pox

 

[philosophicalbastard]

There is a scar on my chest from when I had menengitis as an infant, and they pumped antibiotics directly into my heart.

 

[G. Alarimm]

I have a bunch of scars running across my back from surgery. I always tell people I was kidnapped by Indians and forced to wrestle bears for my freedom, and that I was so successful at it they made me their king.

Good times.

 

[TheColdHeart]

I have a scar on my right eyebrow from when I was a about 6, I tripped and cut it open on a cupboard edge. So im there with stitches in my head...3 days later I run, trip and smash my left eye into the same cupboard. So I have a scar in my eyebrow and next to my left eye, 2 scars, 3 days and 1 cupboard.

I have a couple of other scars here and there but those are the only really prominent ones.

 

[Simmo8591]

I have hundreds of rugby stud scars across my lower legs from 11 years of playing sport. I also have a deep scar on my knee from an army assault course when i crawled over a hidden piece of glass in a riverbed.
my best though has to be my right shoulder that is a mass of scar tissue and ripped tendons, I badly dislocated it from rugby and its never been the same since

 

[Guitarmasterx7]

Oh geez there's a lot.
I have a huge one on my pinkey, where pretty much half the skin ripped off (slammed in a door which jammed, my ring finger has a small scar on it as well) There's a big one that goes from the side of the knuckle where my hand ends that extends to the underside of my pinky to where it's level with my nail, and a small, thin one that bridges strait up the back. one on the underside of my chin about 3 inches long. From what I've heard I busted it open from tripping off a curb when i was like 2 or 3. huge one on my back. (cracked spine, needed surgery to prevent it from causing a cyst.) I have a clear dent in my forehead bone, scar on my shoulder, and a scar on my neck (fights). small diagonal one on the bridge of my nose, and a small one on my left eyebrow (don't know how i got these ones.) two on my chest, one from broken collar bone and a small one from a knife accident. long story.

Many from assorted stupidity, they are reminders that the past did indeed happen
