The Callouses on Your Hands by Picø ҉ ØwO

INSTRUCTIONS: Think of a physical mark on yourself that has a story behind it. Tell the story.

OR

Think of a physical mark on yourself, and invent a story story behind it. Tell the story.

Please, don't tell us which of these options you select.

Setting: Middle school church choir practice in Evansville, IN. 1997.
I look over and see a thick, long, white scar on the back of the hand of the boy next to me.
Me: What's that on Josh's hand?
Chad: Oh, it's an eraser burn.
Me: What's an eraser burn?
Chad: Well, if you take an eraser from a pencil and rub it back and forth long enough, it will make a scar.
Me: Cool!
Chad: Do you want to do it?
Me: Yeah!
We spend the rest of the day rubbing pencil erasers on the back of our hands.

Setting: Home, breakfast, 3 weeks later.
My sister: What's that on the back of your hand? HAHA IS THAT AN ERASER BURN?
Me: NO. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT THING YOU SAID MEANS.

How old was your sister at the time? I like how this plays into, "Please, don't tell us which of these options you select."

Are you lying to us, or said sister? Bum bum bum.

My money is on your sister seeing as google seems to corroborate that these are real. I have a similar one a little lower that I got from a pizza delivery trip and fall. Pizza delivery was an awesome job. Except that my name rhymes with man and so I was always greeted with "Oh look! It's dan-dan the pizza man." Naw, I loved it. Say my name twice baby. That's what I'd tell them.

My sister is older. She was probably 17 or 18 at the time. I was, and possibly still am, a moron.
