im mildly hypertrophic so I have a few. one on my hand, right in the center and pretty big, when I was young my mum accidentally stabbed my hand with pruning scissors. I have a scar under my chin from when I got kicked in the face as a soccer goalkeeper. I have scars all over my forearms from my cat hanging off my arm. I have a scar on one of my fingers from being stabbed by a pen. I have numerous scars on my shins from sports. I have a scar on my right shoulder from shoulder reconstruction. I have a scar on my left knee from a pretty heavy fall when I was in high school. I have a scar on my back from removing a melanoma. aaaaaand I think that's it...
i have two long scars on each of my shoulders and one on my right hands middle finger.
One shoulder scar was from my cousin scratching by an accident, it felt like freddy cougar poked me.
The other is from a friend who tried to grab my shoulder but she missed and dragged her finger across my shoulder.
The middle finger is where I was running around with my sister and my friend. My mother got into a car accident the night before and the head light glass was broken. So I kinda tripped and tried to put my hand on the hood to catch myself ...but I missed.
I have one on my leg where my cat decided to see how far into my skin her claws could go..
I also have one on my stomach where I was cutting up a pizza and the tray slid towards me! (Hoping that one will fade!)
And lastly I have five down the upper side of my left arm, one my upper right arm and one at the top of my leg. I used to always wear long sleeved tops to cover them up, but recently I've come to accept that scars truly are tattoos with a more interesting story.. And they remind me how I got over depression and am alive to tell the tale :)
I have lots of scars, but the majority of them are tiny scars on my hands from my cat.
Then I have some scars on my knees from falling off my bike (I did that a lot when I was little).
I have a star-shaped scar on my rib from when I had chicken pox.
And I have a scar on my eyebrow from when a dog bit me :o

I don't regard my scars as tattoos. I refer to them as "trademarks" sometimes or "calling cards" but I wish I could banish them. I have had a lot of brain surgery in my life. Then why is it all over your chest? My usual answer: they missed.
But seriously, I have a surgical implant that runs from my brain to my abdomen, so I've got scars all over the place. I regard them as hideous, unsightly, humiliating and embarrassing, but my wife has tried to accept them. And I would love to find a way to get thes, ahem! "Tattoos" removed.
On my hands I can find at least twelve and can't remember where they all cam from. At least half of them are from working with tools as I am quite a tinkerer. I have slipped with an exacto knife, hand saw, been stabbed with a pencil twice, sliced from a cat food can, and have one on my arm form a stick that backfired in a launcher I made at summer camp lol. I have one on my foot from getting sliced by zebra muscles in a lake. I have never had any serious injuries thankfully other than stitches on my chin which still wasn't that bad at all.
I have burn scars on my hands from my curling iron, but that's boring. Maybe I should start saying I saved a puppy from a fire with my bare hands :D
That better not be an excuse to go out and get one cause it's 'cool' lol
I have a scar from shaving my wrist in 4th grade, and a scar from having something fall on my foot, and a scar from having my brother slam my finger in the door. I also have a scar from rollerblading down a hill while holding a jump rope with my friend.
one.
its on my thumb from when I accidently burnt myself taking something out of the oven haha
Hmmm I don't really have any scars. I tend to think of scars as bad stories haha
I have a couple cigarette burns from my papa. But that's pretty much it. Oh, and from that time I fell down the stairs.
I don't know if this counts as a scar, but I think of it as one. I chipped my tooth when I was younger when I fell from a railing.
Ive got lots of scars. Most of them are from parkour and sports.
I have metaphorical tattoos then
