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.

utterly stupidremember pogs? remember how fun it was to compete with your friends to batter the shit out of bits of cardboard with bits of plastic? indeed. well, that is unless you're me as a pyromaniac 10 year-old with too much time on his hands. the slammers, officially called kinis (fuck knows why), looked like the best things in the world to burn. i don't know why, but i thought doing so would improve their effectiveness in the playground battles. so i got myself a box of matches and, wearing shorts at the time, decided to try and melt one into a more effective shape. cue molten plastic dripping on to bare skin. i have now got a nasty scar on my knee.
i'll probably have a lot more scars in the future as i have 12 facial piercings and the intention to pursue a career in teaching, but i'll have to wait and see what the department of education says, eh?
