I don't get scars I give them.

At a bar once two years ago (orange julius at the mall) I once punched a person in the face so hard that it cut her lip on her braces. Her mom came chasing after me but she was too fat and pregnant to catch me.

Left annular got stuck in a stroller's articulation someone was folding up when I was maybe 4 years old, 8 points.. some small cuts when I fell off headfirst into brush from a mountainbike downhill... a few small puncture and scrape marks, that's it.
Thankfully I've almost always been on the right side of giving scars and have good reflexes to potential bodily harm.

I had a Gunny in boot camp that had a scar that went from the front of his face to the back of his neck. He'd catch recruits looking at it and spout of with "YOU SEE THIS SCAR, MY MOTHER GAVE ME THIS SCAR, RIGHT AFTER I KICKED HER ASS!!!!!!"

that guy was crazy!

Forgot about my main one -

Across forehead, happened when I was kid.
Dad was an RAF fitter at Turnhouse (Edinburgh).
He used to take me and my sister in on a weekend.
Anyway was pushing her around on a aircraft towbar, and gave it a big push to try get some speed up.
I fell flat on my face and heard a bang.
Looked up just in time to see it coming straight back at me and got assaulted by the ring on one end. It had hit the hanger door and 'bounced' back.
Apparently I was easily found, wandering around the dispersal, by following the blood trail.
10 stitches and lot of weeks later........

I have about 78 stitches in my face as a trophy for all the hockey I played. Fortunately, they don't show too much (unless you look for them). Most of them are around the eyes and a big one under my lower lip which is fairly obvious.

As a kid I stepped on a broken coke bottle in the lake at the cottage and have a nice scar on my foot.

Friggin cat bit me where the thumb joins the hand and its tooth went through. Little scar there.

Dent on upper part of nose from when I had my head slammed on the bottom of a whiteboard (the part where you keep the markers and erasers)

Scar in lower stomach from a catheder being inserted because there was a blockage where it normally goes (oww) this one led to more scars but none that any of you will ever see...

PS....they can numb your skin, but they cant numb your friggin internal organs lol.

ABNRCN

LRRP

JUSMAAG-K

TNT

Just a fiery short RedHead with a chip on his shoulders..held my own ground.

Broke both arms at the same time when I was 12. Got thrown from a really BIG horse.
Broke my hand when I punched a wall as hard as I could. Figured out right away that the paneling was covering a cinder block wall.

scars: forehead, chin, elbows, one knee.

Have lots of really small scars and burn marks on my hands from not wearing gloves using the machine thingy that i never remember the english name for.

looks like this and can cut you bad with lots of really hot metal chafings

english name is a 'lathe' nilsen

surfing scars, lots

fin cuts on chin, right eye socket, hand, elbow, feet (a few) and bum cheek all about 3/4 inch long prob more i missed

lastest scar is on my left eyebrow, when i got 'my' surfboard in my head in morocco about 1 inch long,

plus reef scars,
3 thin lines about 3-4 inches long just below my left shoulder blade,

just below my right knee on the side of my leg, a 3 inch long area of scar tissue caused by hitting the reef in indo and then 3 weeks later just as it was healing manageing to rip out what scar tissue had formed again on exactly the same bit of reef.

circumcision scar count? hehe (medical reasons when i was very ickle)

and my very scar is a 1/2 inch line on my hand where i managed to miss my fountain pen lid with my caligraphy fountain pen and slice the back of my hand, had a blue scar for quite a while :-D

When travelling i like to have a tube of medical tissue glue to stick myself together, also seems to leaves barely any scar compared to having stitches done.

Yeah, like I'm gonna claim a fat chick's kid.

She'll never see one dime from me. She wanted to keep a trophy, it's all hers then. I can't be responsible for what she lets happen to her ovaries.

Still it's good to know that there's a couple of spare kidneys out there for me.
