My memorable scar is highly visible on my left hand around my thumb. I was aged 4, playing around with dad's chisel (despite being told not to) while dad was making a closet for Grandma & Grandpa. There was a lot of blood, apparently.

When they took me to the doctor (or emergency room - dunno which) to get me stitched up, the doctor told me (I hadn't been crying or anything - guess it didn't hurt) that I should probably yell since it might hurt. According to my parents, I shouted out "poobie poobie poobie!" in response to that.

I remember VERY little about this event, but I have a very nice scar to show for it. (4 stitches, apparently. My sister at aged 7 got 7 stitches for a cut on her chin once. Now that I'm 37, I don't want to cut myself badly cuz 37 stitches seems a bit excessive.)
