I'll give you two marks. One story is true, one is false. Or are they?
Notice the fold at the top? When I was about 2-3 or so, I was petting a stray cat. The cat was okay for a bit, but then turned around and swiped me on the ear. The scratch became infected and had to be cut open to be drained. When the skin healed, it healed shut, leaving that fold.
That bump near the base of the nail is from when I shut my grandfather's truck door on my thumb. I was about 4-5 years old and we had just got back from fishing. I tried closing the door, but held it wrong.
