Anyone else tell funny stories on how you got your sh scars instead of what actually happened
sh scars? Hm, I didn't know that bash could be harmful! I've been using it for 9 years and it never hurt me.
As for scars, I have 3 physical scars but they're not from attempts to push the daisies - I don't have that courage to cut myself in order to leave scars. They're from periods of my life between 9 and 16.
Scar 1: my right foot is slightly bigger than the left. The reason for that is an insect whose name in English I do not know. If I'm not mistaken, that insect is the male version of a wasp. When I was 9 it stung me and my foot grew a few sizes within minutes to the point that I couldn't wear even a flip-flop, I couldn't put weight on that foot and I also couldn't feel it because it was numb. My mom had to call an ambulance to take me to the ER. Since we were out in the country, far away from any big cities, by the time we got to the city, my foot had become the size of a half a gallon bottle of water. The doctors removed the sting and drained the poison from my foot but it never returned to its original size. Now I'm 40, that incident was 31 years ago and even now my right foot is like maybe quarter of a size bigger than the left. Still the size difference isn't enough for me to have to buy two different sizes of shoes but it does look weird.
Scar 2: Again when I was 9, I was just walking around the neighbourhood when a crazed cat jumped on me and bit me in the arm near the elbow. She sank her teeth so deeply that my arm was was gushing out blood like a fountain for about 20 minutes before it stopped. When it did stop, I could see my own bone.
That scar has already disappeared now, but it WAS visible in the past 28 years.
Scar 3: When I was 16, I had to move a pot of boiling water from point A in the kitchen to point B but I tripped and the bigger part of that water poured on my right foot. I was wearing socks at the time. The sock melted away and I had to remove it very carefully because it had fused with my skin. And once again I was able to see my own bone. It took a few years for the wound to fully close. Fully healing - that's a whole other story, depending on your understanding of healing. Because the meat recovered relatively quickly but for years after that incident the scar was itchy. Sometimes it was itchy, sometimes it hurt like hell and sometimes - both simultaneously. And for many years after the incident the immediate are around the scar and the scar itself were insensitive to anything. If you pressed hard on the scar, I wouldn't feel anything - no pain, no pressure and the skin itself was unbelievably smooth, like a piece of metal.
There's a 4th wound but you already all about it and that wound would never get to be a scar.
