Facial Scars
Mmmm... Pinched nerve -or something- yay. I have an old scar in my right eyebrow. From a water gun fight. That's right, my face is permanently scarred from a water gun battle with my little brother. I was winning up until the point I got that though. XD I think leaving the field with half your face covered in blood makes you the loser even if you were the only one with water left. He ran out of water, I didn't. I kept shooting. He lost his temper and threw his only remaining ammo at me. Water gun meet skull. Head wounds bleed a lot. Cue panicked mother and hospital trip. (Subsequently, this scar is why it's tricky for me to get my eyebrows waxed, if its done wrong, that scar becomes very obvious, because it's a small number of hairs that only barely cover this slash across the lower half of the brow.)
Anyhoo, the old scar gets this pinched feeling sometimes, and any pressure in that vicinity of my head results in very small sharp pains right around the location of the scar. So it's doing that now.
*pokes at scar* It's just a very odd sensation.
Yes, random. I just felt like sharing.
So, anybody else have scars with silly stories behind them?

Question though: Do you have trouble being able to move the scarred eyebrow as much as the normal one? My facial expressions look a bit odd since my scarred eyebrow has a more limited range of movement.

My issue is because it's almost horizontal through the brow, I would actually get this weird-looking cut-out rather than the brow split in half.
Not really. It might have a little less movement, but not significantly noticeable.

I have a little eyebrow scar too, actually, though it's just a tiny pit from when I had chicken pox. My only other scar (no more than a small white dot) was gained from grappling over a dodge ball with somebody else. ^^;

Haha. Nice. As facial scars go, eyebrow ones are easy to hide.

Yep, for the most part. I get much more reaction over a red birthmark on my arm that's been mistaken for everything from a burn to raspberry jam.

Hmmm. Interesting. I bet that gets old, huh?

Then I have a V shaped scar on my forefinger cause this kid was... helping.. me cut some string. So I was holding it, and he missed and cut me instead.... Yeah, accidental? xDD
Hope your scar-ache goes away soon.
no subject
Yeah. It'll be fine.

Unfortunately I don't think there's a scar from that time a redtail clawed me at the raptor center... Didn't notice until I tried to pull my arm away from the bird's feet, and noticed that the skin was being pulled back down. >_>
no subject
Aww. That's one that should be a scar just for the story potential.
no subject
At least you didn't have to superglue it closed!
no subject
Haha. Yeah, every time the needle or the deadening shot needle got anywhere near me, I would start to go into shock. I honestly can't remember much from the hospital, and that's probably why.
Yes, butterfly stitches sounds absurd. Evidently it's a real-enough practice though. Yeah, I haven't had to glue my face back together at least.

For some reason I just didn't want to go to class and I decided to hide in this slide that had a covered portion at the top. But I didn't get in there before the teacher saw me and she chased me up the stairs to the slide. I slipped and bonk my chin real hard and the metal tore it up.
Oh boy did I cry.

And remember, Aspen is a golden eagle.
no subject
Ooooohhhhh. Pretty. Is Aspen bigger or smaller than Tiger (was if IV or V that was the last on to live at the War Eagle cage)?

Yeah, I got two scars. One from scraping my hand walking through a doorway in highschool, and one from a screen door that closed too fast on my leg when I was jumping in and out of FEMA trailers at my last job... fuck, I got no good stories :(
no subject
From scraping your hand? Wha~?

Like I said, I was being BEYOND retarded.
My scar near my eye
The one on my face is from a mole I had when I was younger. The doctor thought it might be cancerous. Surgery to remove it and a couple of stitches later and I have a scar near my left eye.
