Scars with historyYou've all got scars: they're nature's little reminders not to be so damned stupid next time. My favourite is the 1/4" round hole in the back of my right hand, created when I was 7 by my best friend putting a manure-covered gardening fork "away".
Tell us the stories behind your scars. With photos if possible.

Aha! Thought of Another One!!In the Marine Corps. Am a gung-ho Corporal. Get my belly button pierced in San Francisco one wild weekend. That is against the military rules so I've got to keep quiet about it.
The monday after the crazy sunday wherein I got my navel pierced: I am standing at the edge of the obstacle course, openmouthed, knowing that jumping over stuff on my belly is going to hurt real bad but also knowing I can't make a fuss because then my Captain and Gunny Sgt. will catch on.
The piercing rips quite a bit, gets infected, bleeds quite copiously for such a small wound, and, worst of all, develops a bad odor that persists for about two weeks even though I am laying down twice a day and putting hydrogen peroxide into my belly button.
PS - I am lame and don't have a site but I will provide pics upon request to anyone who wants. (except for the hernia scar - that one is off limits due to the intimate nature of the location)
