You'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.

possibly slightly off the point (most of the others are about stupid accidents, and this wasn't but....)
Goes to hospital for double hernia op. Now I'm sure, was sure etc., that the surgeon had told me it was keyhole surgery.
Hmmm. Woke up after the op, looked down in my groggy state to see a big f*** off wad of a dressing, covering a scar all of 11" long looking like a smile just above my groinal region. (Smile ? Not f***ing funny, trust me) - I thought I'd had a caesarean by mistake.
The smile lingers to this day (all of 5 years ago) - but it does break the ice at dinner parties.
btw. That op f***ing hurts. Avoid.
