    I was 5, my mother said "stop scratching, it'll leave a scar". Oh, but I scratched. I have a chicken pox scar now that will always remind me that my mother was right . . . and even if I wasn't reminded by the scar, I occasionally hear "remember I told you not to scratch it?"

    Emergency surgery scars are my battle scars.

    Nothing amazing... mostly from falling off my bike. I have some from getting a cat off a roof, but they are really pale now.

    My ex had burns scars running from his entire neck down to just below his rib cage, down both his arms, on one of his hands. Not to mention all the scars on his legs from where they took grafting skin. I ****ing loved his scars. They're hot.

    Im accident prone so I have a few!
    Left hand, middle finger. Scar up the side of my finger from a surgery. Broke it doing a back handspring at cheer camp. It was all sideways and shoved into my hand. Nice!
    Scar on my left wrist from jumping off a swing and getting caught.
    I have a scar on my left shin from getting kicked with cleats in soccer practice when I was too cool to wear shin guards.
    I have a bunch of little ones on my right foot - dropped a bottle of booze and it shattered and cut my foot pretty good.

    One main "surgical" scar on the inside of my left elbow where they fiddled around with my Ulnar nerve.

    One small scar on my thumb from a very hot frying pan when i was around 12.

    Lots of scars on both arms between wrist and elbow on the top side from the summer of '92 when i self-harmed. Thankfully hair and freckles covers most of them :)

    I have a scar on my finger from slashing it with a box cutter. One in my arm from 3rd grade from being stabbed with a pencil and the lead is still there. Multiple small burn scars from fire knife spinning when I danced in a Polynesian group.

    I have a scar on my arm from where a guy broke a beer bottle in a bar fight, when he spun around it gashed me. A girl getting slashed in a bar fight ends a bar fight.

    I used to be a cutter when I was 15-18 I used to cut my left wrist and arm. I still have the scars but I refuse to get a tattoo just because its a reminder I guess. When I drive and people see my left arm I tell them I use to cut myself but I no longer do it. I was ashamed of it but I didnt know God back then I was lost depressed and angry.

    I have an L shaped scar on my chin from blunt force trauma.
    My brother and I were in middle school and he was hitting lightning bugs with a baseball bat (we thought it was cool that it made them glow really brightly right after they died... did I mention we were in middle school?) Anyways, I was standing just about in the right spot behind him so that he caught me at the end of his swing with the bat tip. I was really lucky that nothing was broken and he didn't hit any part of my teeth. I am pretty sure he still feels guilty about it though, he mentioned it in his speech thanking his family when he got married :-P

    I have a scar that goes from one side of my bottom lip down towards my chin for which I needed 12 stitches. I was trying to rescue a cat from a dog and bent down to pick her (the cat) up.

    The cat seeing this as beneficial to her predicament allowed me to pick her up but then proceeded to use my face as a ladder by firmly planting a hind claw in my lip and launching herself skywards and thus accessing the lower branches of the tree behind me.

    The dog just stood there and laughed at me.

    My mum nearly fainted when a complete stranger rushed in the house carrying her 9 year old, bleeding, daughter in his arms.

    God bless Bert (the crane driver) who was working on the building site nearby and had spotted the incident from his cab and rushed to my rescue. Awwwww.

    My friend, who owned the cat, who was called Ginger, promptly renamed her Tiger and whenever I went around to the house my entrance would be greeted by her shouting " Go get her Tiger" Arrrrggggghhhh :mad:

    I sometimes tell people I was glassed in a bar fight LOL
