Scars with history
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.

I wish I had a camera...
Because you can still see the stitch marks where they stitched my lower lip back onto my jaw following a bicycle accident when I was 7 or 8. I flew about 50 feet and landed face-first on my chin. The worst part was when the doctor made me rinse out the wound with salt water before they would give me any anesthetic. I also have a visible groove across my left shinbone from getting kicked in a football match - luckily, my shinguard held in most of the blood or I might have had to stop playing.
