I wanna give myself a facial scar

I can't lie. I actually burnt the numbers to a religious psalm into my thumb with a paper clip. I believe I also tried to burn the inside of my forearm, but I can't remember exactly. I just remember wearing some big bandage all across my arm at work and feeling like I wanted people to think I was a bad ass or something.

I actually went to the ER because after I did it I felt stupid and wanted to make sure I didn't give myself tetanus or something LOL. Received the bill and felt kind of dumb, but we all do something really strange like this at some point maybe in our own different ways. I don't think people can really tell the numbers of the psalm but you can tell it's scarred. I can tell the numbers well enough just because I know them.

So, in short, I think it's normal but the physical scars that we grow to respect are the ones we don't aim to get. For example, when I was a toddler I was running through the house and slipped because the dishwasher was leaking and my teeth went completely through my under-lip apparently. Scar looks pretty cool. Have some other stories, but a scar without a real story is just kind of dumb.
