Scars
- Thread starter Innocuous

I survived. It was 90% luck and 5% fight or flight (fight in my case.. I didn't truly know that about myself until then) and 5% training. I'd much rather it never have happened. Such is life.
I was like Dave Schultz .. I didn't back down and I got my ass handed to me plenty of times. Ultimately not a real smart way to live a life
I'm so very glad I out grew it.

Me too ghost, you're better off here with us
I have a number of scars. My long scars are from a cut on my hand from punching a window, a hernia scar, and ACL reconstruction with patella tendon being partially harvested for the replacement ACL. I have a bunch of very tiny, almost invisible scars from shoulder arthroscopic surgery, vasectomy, and wisdom teeth extraction.
do tattoos count?
all my fingers are scared from doing construction and landscaping. other than that I only have one or two scars.

Landscaping is no joke. I helped my father in law one summer, mostly installing sprinkler systems to apartment buildings under construction. Usually simple, until it wasn't. Rock strewn ground and a pick axe is hard core on the hands. Pvc splinters suck big time. That freakin blue glue burns like a biotch if you have in on your skin too long. I learned a lot
Thank god no.
Grandma was awesome. She helped me turn out normal.
I have a 17 inch scar across my abdomen. Last year, I had a number parts removed. They actually call it Mercedes scar as it resembles the Mercedes Benz three pointed star. I'm tempted to get a big tattoo to cover.

I don't know how many scars I have. My continued existence on the planet is proof there is a God who has a wierd sense of humor and likes slapstick entertainment.
My first job out of HS was working for a rod busting crew. I rode an old Triumph and the (right side) shifter had worn a hole in the top my boot right at the beginning of the split between the big toe and the one next to it. I was cutting some pieces of rebar with a torch when a blob of the molten metal hit the hole and ran right into the split between my toes.
It was the only time in my life I've been accused of dancing.
I am doing great. and thanks for the comments. Very little "c" left. Very little. One more top up of nuclear waste next Monday and that may be it for a year, fingers crossed. Living life these days.
Keep the blue side up.
