Your Battle Wounds

How many Scars are you proud to have on your body?

I have Burn scar on my Left hand, a dent on my Thumb(Severe Knife slash) Cuts and pokes on my lower shins. Unfortunately No Bullet holes or Shark bites.

I couldn't count them all. My job ain't easy, man.

Damn,man. What or how do you get that many?

let me see.

I have tons of scras all over my legs. I don't even know what most of these are even from. Probably Florida bugs.

I have probably about 10 on my hands. Cuts and stuff. i one time was pulling a pipe wrench and it slipped, and my hand hit a metal stud. I have a scar over my left eye, from where I turned around and hit a piece of 8 inch pipe. My eyebrow covers that one though. I have a six inch scar on my left thigh from falling into an ac duct contraption. There are actually 2 scars from that.

Well, a drink to your leg. (from "Jaws")

I've got several scars from burns,cuts and such.I've got a scar on my right arm from putting on metal roofing,a scar on my left hand from soldering copper pipe.Fun stuff!

I have a scar on my forehead that is hilarious placed pretty much where my hair line is, so it almost looks like my hairline continues on to my forehead (which makes no sense). I got it when I was three years old and fell out of a shopping trolley, cracking my head on the Sainsbury's floor. Good times!

I have a couple more random scars at the back of my head from random incidents (falling backwards off a ladder, literally a few days before the trolley incident, falling backwards on to a radiator when I was about 5, falling backwards in a bowling alley when I was 15). Really, I'm quite prone to head injuries. Haven't had a bad one since the bowling incident though, which is good ;P

I have three scars from being stabbed...three separate times.

Can't say I'm proud of them, though. They're actually a reminder of just how stupid (i.e. crazy) I get when someone threatens my life. And it's scary.

Oh yeah, Smindas' post reminds me that I have a pretty good scar on my forehead as well. When I was born, I had a bit of a bone protrusion on my forehead, which I set about enlarging by falling square on it on at least three different occasions (I guess my arms didn't work so well at stopping my fall?), the last of which was a solid marble floor in a department store. I swear I can still feel that one if I concentrate hard enough. Then, at about 21, I was in a bar, headbanging to a friend's band in front of a brass railing and guess what? Yep, I cracked it again on the railing. When I went to the restroom, I had blood streaming down my face, which was actually kinda cool because it freaked some people out! Thanks to that night, I not only have the aggravated bone protrusion, but I also have a nice little horizontal scar right in the middle of my forehead on top of it - you know, just to mark the spot in case I forget where it is.

But since then, I've tried to curb the use of my forehead as jackhammer, battering ram and wrecking ball as much as possible. You know, it does tend to cause a little dain bramage with constant use that isn't approved by the manufacturer.

< That was cool,man!

I have a scar that runs across 3/4 of the bottom side of my palm. A friend stabbed me accidentally with a mechanical pencil when I was in school and because I was freaken out I whipped my hand back which cut me even more!

I also have a scar on my knee from outdoor school when we were playing capture the flag, and I had the flag and ran into a tent and cut it on the metal parts of the tent.

I have one on my face from a cat, I mean.......a guy with a knife....beat the shiz outta me. Okay, fine, it was a cat.

since we all took turns giving them to you, we all know what they look like.

Yes, Master MC.

I have many different scars. One is right between the eyes.

I have a few... One under my chin from falling off a jungle Gym when i was very young (needed many stitches) and the other is my left index finger knuckle which i split open to the bone from stupidly closing my razor sharp Swiss Army knife. I can't remember how it was anywhere near my knuckle.

I have that one too. I either bashed my head into a dash CD player in a car accident (what I believe happened) or TT, you and I are both part of some strange experiment. Actually that would explain the anal lesions.

I have a surgical one from messing up my knee in a soccer game. Which now that I live in AZ gets tanned over and is not as noticable.

I have several on my hands and fingers from the time a cereal bowl I was rinsing shattered. The bowl had this bumpy ridged surface and when it broke turned into all these shards. I barely was touching it and they left deep quick slices all over. They healed quick but left scars.

I have a couple on my forehead (face went through windshield in car wreck when I was 16). I also have a huge one on my left leg, fell on a hay cutting scythe when I was 4, never had stitches...so there's still an indentation there and the skin has always been thinner in the spot.
