Electric shock from alfredo sauce.
This wins for the sheer WTFery of it.
And falling through a condemned pier wins for the picturesqueness of it.
Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Oh, I did slice my palm open while cutting carrots. While away at Girl Scout camp. That scar has faded quite a bit, and scores pretty high on the stupidity index.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
All my scars that have any kind of story attached seem to have faded. I have the burn on my thumb from Friday (taking brea dout of the oven while talking on the phone). And a couple of old popcorn-related scars, but they are much less noticeable than they used to be.

Compassionately intolerant
Holy moley!
Turns out I'm not half as accident prone as I thought.
I counted up my injuries and surgeries, but came up with only 6, three of which didn't even leave scars!
eta: Oh right! Adding being thrown 4 feet against a fence by an electric shock from a pool filter thingy. Being attacked by Nubian goats (they are organized, don't turn your back on them!). And falling about 15 feet off a boat, onto concrete.
But none of them left actual scars.
etaa: Second degree burn...still no scar.
The very worst of all these? No lie, the stingray strike. Worst pain I have ever felt, or even hope to. Goose flesh just thinking about it, some 15 years later!

I don't think bubblewrap is going to be enough for you, Ginger.
The first step will to be to remove everything sharp or hot from your house.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Notable scars:
- Chicken pox, age 6, scar on ribs from massive pox
- Repeated shaving injury, between 13 and 23 (stopped shaving legs then), right knee.
- Attempted mugging, age 19, scar in middle of forehead from a plastic plant stake.
- Pretty much invisible scar (thank you mr. plastic surgeon) under right lashline from blowout fracture, age 22.
- Various mole removals, all benign, on right hip, left hand, by right ear, and where sun don't shine.
- Not a scar, but my highest count of bruises from rugby was 42 at one time, including IIRC distinguishable cleat marks on my thigh and one entirely purple ass cheek from getting tackled at a party. She was flirting.

The worst pain I ever fault was probably getting the inside of my nose cauterized. But jellyfish was pretty bad. Like bee sting bad but long strands of bee sting hurt all up and down my legs.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
All of my scars are surgical.

Being attacked by Nubian goats
This ranks up there with "electric shock from Alfredo sauce" on the WTFery scale.
