I'm thinking this can now go on this thread, It will match the scar I have on my right ear from a dog that didn't like me throwing his tennis ball. Now I have a semi matching ~at the moment cut~ to be a scar on my left ear.
Copy posting from the what made you thread. I went to the barber shop. Sporting my Lizard skin cowboy boots, the lady started cutting and was doing pretty good, then she got to the left of my head and started to say that I have beautiful boots. All of a sudden, I felt a yank and warm fluid dripping down my ear. Yup, she buzzed my ear lobe. I guess I have to add that to my Scar thread! First thing that came out of her mouth was Oh no, are you gonna sue me??? I said, well actually no, but if my ear was lying on the floor then perhaps we would have talked about it. She was nevous the rest of the hair cut, lol. She said, it don't hurt?? I said nahh, I really didn't feel it, she said you one strong man! I said yeah, until I come in with a full head cast tomorrow... Maybe next time I will try Petsmart |

I guess my most interesting story scars are on my face. One runs across the both temples, both eyelids, bridge of my nose and into my hairline on one side, one under my nose and up one side, three on my forehead... the ones on my cheeks have faded to a point where only I can trace the lines barely from memory.
I had two surgeries at Mayo to smooth and lessen them, straighten my nose and remove glass that remained after the initial cleaning and stitching. I received them in a bar on a winter night about 17 years ago when some guys realized I wasn't male but a female and it pissed them off so they decided to give me a try. But on the bright side they walked off in at least as bad a shape as I did.

Haven't visited this thread in a while...
~chuckles~ I have a few more Character to add. Cat bite on the left arm, bad kitty! Box cutter between my thumb and pointer, I looked up to see who was talking to me while opened a box I was receiving as well as my hand. And some knicks I keep getting, I still don't know where the heck I am getting them from, but they say "Surprise" Ohhh well, I am like an old truck with character. I guess. |

A few scars
Three scars on my head-- one that won't grow hair from when our german shepherd suddenly attacked me and bit my head. If my dad hadn't been home to kick him off, I may not be here right now.Took stitches. Left palm-- I sliced open the palm of my left hand with a fillet knife while showing my little brother the knew knife. It was so sharp I didn't even feel it, the blood just began to run. Took stitches. Left and right wrists-- I have a history of cutting myself. I still think about it but the urges aren't as strong. But I do have some nasty looking scars on both sides. These are actually due to mental scars. Took stitches 6 or 7 times.

My thoughts ExACtAlly. I have my scars. I like the term "Badge of Honor" attached to some scars. They show your metal and what your made of. A survivor's badge. I have a series of scars from fights growing up. Both in and out of the ring. One over my eyebrow, growing faint now, from a skateboard to the face. If you know where to look there are several others from cigarette burns. The largest being just below the small of my back. The most noticeable ones I have are my fingers. They were broke at a very young age, and, after being left untreated are a bit twisted and crooked. I look at each old injury as a badge. I survived. I earned the right to brag on them if I so chose. Good thread, thanks.

Ok..I have a mental scar that fits this bill. Where as I didn't draw blood, thank Moses, I will definitely NEVER forget it. I cringe any time I see anyone get racked. I was about 10 or 11 and was riding a mountain bike way too big for me at full speed around a blind corner. I ran into a parked car so hard I went up on the trunk and the back of the bike tried to pin me there. Now ya'll may remember how the mountain bike handle bars were. They came up from the frame and then forward into a T shape. I wrapped around it. How I ever walked my bike home that day I just don't know. I was told to "walk it off". Smeh..I walked straight to an ice pack!!

My scars are all surgery related. Some little and almost invisible and some really big scary looking ones. I sort of wish I had some character building scars with stories behind them, but sadly no.

I only have one significant scar that I got this summer due to sugery on my abdomen. It really doesn't bother me. I don't know if that is weird, or not.

i do have some scars, i have one just under my nose, its a faint gray in color, most don't notice it unless i point it out.. although some have mentioned that i had a faint pencil mark under my nose *laughs* but, now i cover it, so its not seen... i also have what looks like a bite mark, from my two front teeth on my tongue.. both were caused by an accident i had when i was 11 yrs old, during the summer, i was driving my bike up a hill and normally would drive back down the other side, but the city decided to remove said hill, and add a guardrail.. the tire hit the top of the guardrail and sent me flying over my handlebars, landing on my face on the pavement of the highway.. i slid quite a distance on my face, knocked me unconscious and left me in a mess.. i had no skin on 3/4 of my face, and bit my tongue almost off.. the gray beneath my nose is gravel they missed when removing gravel from my face at the hospital.. odd part of this story is... while i was out of it, i remember laying there, and a gentleman hitchiking coming to my side, while my best friend biked home for my mother and stepfather to come help me.. i remember this gentleman speaking with me, keeping me calm & telling me i would be alright.. i also remember my mother & stepfather putting me in the car to meet the ambulance halfway (as we lived 45 mins out of town) and this gentleman waving me off.. i've been told i was not awake when they arrived, that i woke during the drive (yet i dont remember the actual drive cept that we were on a backroad but they say we took the highway lol), there was no gentleman and yet i still remember him to this day.. i do know that his words were such a help to me in staying calm and patiently waiting.. anyway, those are my scars.. also a scar on my tummy, from my c-sections!

I had my first ever surgery 2 months ago. I had to have my left ovary removed, so I have two small scars on my lower abdomen. Those scars actually mean a lot to me. I feel very proud of myself at how brave i was through the pre/during/post surgery. Then there is my scar from where I used to have my eyebrow piercing. That brings back good memories of younger days. And then that weird innoculation/s scar on my arm that some others of you seem to have too. |

I'm not sure I'd call them character building. Some of them are quite literally battle scars, while others are just representative of painful memories.
Remaining scars: My left shoulder has some scarring that I received some years back. I'd rather not get into detail about how I got them, as it represents a particularly painful time during my life. I have a scar that looks more like a dimple on my right cheekbone as a result of the last fistfight (hopefully the last one ever since I want that chapter of my life to remain closed) I was in approximately 3 years ago. I have another scar on my right bicep from being dragged up a flight of stairs by my father as a kid. Was cut by a wooden corner of sorts at the top of the stairs. I recall having more scars before, but I must heal well or something cause they aren't where I remember them being anymore lol |

I've got quite a few scars.
One is on my left knee where a white fluffy kitten named snowball thought it would be cute to use my knee as a scratching post with one of her claws. Another big one was from when i was almost 15. I went to cross the street and some old lady going 45mph in a 25mph zone hit me. I flew a good 5 feet into the air and the sidewalk decided that it was going to take a nice chunk out of my arm. I used to work in a sub shop and i managed to somehow miss this massive glove that i was wearing to take out the bread from the oven. That wasn't a pleasant one. If you look really closely at my body you'll see the scars from when i used to cut. Scissors were my weapon of choice because the pain was just as good but didnt require too much medical attention. I still think about it as well, but i dont miss those days. If i want the high i used to get i just spend alot of money on a new tattoo. I'm the reason why they put CAUTION: SHARP BLADE on things like saran wrap and aluminum foil. I always put cling wrap on my new tats while im sleeping so it stays moist and the scabs dont fall off. I was getting ready for bed and was about to cover the one on the back of my head. I pulled off a chunk of cling wrap and my knuckle got caught in the blade. Its on my right middle finger starting at the base of the knuckle going past it. I was far too stubborn to go to the hospital (which i really regret now) and put it in a splint for 2 weeks. After i thought it was healed, i managed to split it open at work in front of a very cute lesbian couple and my boss. (She still makes fun of me for it). So i put it in a splint again for 2 weeks. Now its been nearly 3 months. I still dont have full movement in it, it still hurts very badly everytime i touch it, and my finger has this large mass of scar tissue on it. My mom, and people in the health and medical field are convinced i may of cut a nerve or two and possibly my tendon. What did i learn? Its very possible to do what you thought was only a myth. I used to think you'd have to be pretty stupid to cut yourself on something like that, until i did it. I think that with scars, you cant put them in either category. You have to go through some pain to get them, which would be considered a battle scar. On the other hand, each scar tells a story and in someway you had to grow as a result of it.

I think scars are amazing and I have earned every single one of mine.
Most of mine are work related, but I love my job. Right eyebrow ( my eye was busted open by a huge mountain of a man on dope, that also had mental issues and was convinced that rather than carry him off to jail that I was an alien wanting to use his brain for experiments) Right shoulder ( stabbed by the mother of a 19year old boy that didnt think her son should pay for his actions) Left hip and thigh ( gun shots from the night my twin sister was shot and died) Left knee ( motorcycle wreck kickstand popped out as we tumbled down and went through my leg) just under right breast ( shot at close range with a .22 ) my latest....left arm the stitches are still so we will see how pretty it turns out lol |
