I haven't had any major injuries, but I did get a good nick on the chin when I was a kid that is still there. Oh and I almost cut the tip of my finger off with a serrated bread knife.......It's still numb along the cut line and It has altered my finger print on that finger. That's it really.

Have any interesting scars?

Lots of scars. None of them are very interesting, though. Mostly from clumsyness.

I have one on my left middle finger from when I caught it in a door blown shut by the wind when I was 2. That'd be it.

Ive got a scar on my jaw under my eye from where a swing hit me when I was 4.

I also have a couple scars on my head. One from hiting my head on a bedpost, and another by knocking a fruit dish off onto my head.

Lots of scars. Head, face, hands, torso. One repair left me with a "smiling titty". I caught a piece of metal in my side that followed the rib cage & lodged under my right nipple. To remove it, a smile was cut a quarter inch below the nipple that extends roughly halfway up each side. That happened when I was 20.

only two scars, one on my pinky from when my cousin suddenly decided to attack it...and one on my leg that I got last year from falling in a fountain (long story on that one).

One under my eye from getting cut during the C-section, one on my forehead from getting hit in the head with a baseball bat in second grade, a couple on my hands from unfortunate pocket knife incidents, and I still have a blemish on my shin from where a friend kicked me last year. I consider myself quite hardy, and from the number of times I've fallen out of trees, I'm rather lucky I've only gotten a broken bone from a bike ride...

War wounds trump anything I've got.

My aunt has a scar from when she was holding me as a baby, and I ripped her ear ring out.

Funny, I'd forgotten this one. It's hidden under clothes most of the time, so I forget it's there. It's a bit of a crazy story but here goes. On my upper thigh, just shy of my hip bone I have a burn scar about the size of a silver dollar. Here's how a momentary lapse of reason can lead to some valuable lessons.

I was sitting in bed, leaning back on pillows, cigarette in hand. (this should have been so disastrous on so many levels) Lets say I was in a "dreamy" state and nodded out. Several moments later I was snapping out of it, and opening my eyes there was a fire in my lap about a foot high. The sheet that was covering me had caught fire and burned through to my leg,
(didn't feel it at the time, but I would later) I jumped to put
it out and in the process, knocked the pillow I was leaning on back into the tealights I had lit on the shelf behind me. Next thing I know I am slamming out two fires in my bed.

SHortly after that incident I realized that maybe drugs might not be working in my favor. This was when I went straight back in '97.

My scar acts as a reminder of three important lessons.
1.Do not smoke in bed
2.Do not light candles anywhere near the bed
3.Do not do heavy drugs (in or out of bed)

To name a couple.
4" bullet scar on right thigh.
2-3" knife wound scars on right wrist.
1/2" scar between my eyes from flying metal.

One scar on left shin from cut during hiking when I was 10. One fairly long scar near right ankle from torn achilles tendon repair 2 years ago.

Then this is not scar but interesting. I had a major dislocation + tendon rupture on left hand when point finger and middle finger were ripped toward opposite direction by a tremendous collision. Today my left point finger is .5 inches shorter than my right and the knuckle base is slightly disfigured. (when I make a fist, the knuckle base of that finger is flat, it does not protrude)

Here's a peculiar one. I cut my leg on a disc drive a few years back. Stood up too quick (last dog was marking the carpet at the time). Anyways there was blood, yelling, and I didn't save the carpet. The disk drive's kind of crooked now and I have an inch long scar. There's gotta be a lesson in there somewhere...

About a year ago I punched my hand through a window. I was just trying to scare my friends who were on the other side watching tv. Believe me I scared them. Especially since I ran inside with blood running down my arm and then I passed out. After waking up to the paramedics stiching up my hand I decided to stop drinking. Had six stiches in the palm of my hand, still see the scar everyday.

I have one long scar that starts about 1 inch above my knee and goes almost to my ankle on my left leg - I broke both of my legs in a car accident. I had to have my hip+knee replaced...my knee is just covered with scars.
