I have a scar on the side of my knee where I once fell on a nail and then had it stitched up. A lot of people asked me what it is, and I'm sick of telling them the boring truth. I'm trying to think of something weird to tell them like, "Lord Voldemort tried to kill me, but couldn't because of my almighty power." Any suggestions?
You could say you're a robot and that's the keyhole to wind you up.

*raises hand* ooh! Good idea! Ummmm.....*headasplosions*:
"I had a bad instance involving a coat hanger, 16 pieces of paper, and some lemon juice."
"My leg was bitten off by a whale when I was 3 and a half. They inserted smart metal into my leg that would grow with me. That's the hole they got it in through."
"You should see the other guy." (<--yeah, that's workable for anything....but it works, trust me.)
"I was in a bathroom in the movie theater, reciting Shakespeare in German (Koffee style :D) when some random bloke got tired of my talent and shoved me into the mirror, which shattered on impact because of my *cough* rippling muscles. This is the scar that I wear as proof."
"I wrote this incredible book, but as I was on my way to the publishers, these creepers jumped out of the bushes, grabbed the book, and stabbed at my legs so I couldn't follow. (Person will ask: Which book?) Say something to the extent of "Harry Potter"

Ooh, that's a great idea, Tater! Thank you!
To the top, thread!

"This nail tried to atack me..." *is pathetic*
"It's a long story that I would prefer not to explain about an alien abduction."
"An evil spirit took my body over and I drained it out of that hole that soon becoame a scar."
"My knee is allerigic to questions."
"I was climbing this tree, almost at the top, and then I fell. A guy with a knife on top of his head happened to be right under me..."
"Oh that. That's nothing. I got that while fighting off ninja's. They had a stick and slammed it onto my knee. It bled. I was able to savethe whole counrty, though..."
"Because of something in my parents genes I pee out of that."
Those are my ideas. I probably will come up with other ones later. I like Koffee's...

If you're a Calvin and Hobbes fan, you could always referrence the "Noodle Incident."
(June 2, 2010 - 1:54 pm)
Thanks for the ideas, everyone! I'm going to use a new one every time someone asks me.
@ lav--I'm a total Calvin and Hobbes fan, but I don't really remember the Noodle Incident. How did it go again?
(June 2, 2010 - 8:27 pm)
We never actually find out what happened in the Noodle Incident. It's referrenced with eyes wide with horror, and we see hints that Calvin got seriously grounded, but that's all. It's up to the reader's imagination, where it's sure to be twice as funny as any of the comic strips.

Erm...
WOLFGIRL67'S IDEAS:
"There was this guy, who knew this guy, who knew this guy, who knew Andy P. C., and there was this fern...It's too complicated to explain."
"CDs are EVIL!!!" *crazily furious face*
"I was replacing a lightbulb, and I fell, and the lightbulb fell on my leg, and...yeah. However, there is one good thing. If I push this scar, my knee lights up. Want to see?"
"One day, I saw a fairy ring. I went and jumped in it, but then the fairies showed up, and they tripped me, and I fell on a toadstool that had been turned into a knife by the faries, because they didn't like me jumping in their ring."
"I used to be in the CIA, and that-" *points to scar* "-is from when someone attacked me."
"A werewolf bit me there." (Optional: Continue by either howling suddenly, or by grabbing the person by the arm, looking worried, and asking, "Is it the full moon yet?"
"I fell on a fire hydrant that happened to be made out of glass. The rest is history."
NDT'S IDEAS:
"Someone set the acid sprayer to mist and it grazed me."
"Oh that? I didn't know what to wear on Halloween, and this guy gave me a costume, and he forgot to tell me his razorblade was in it."
"Oh, that was a looooong (many more o's) time ago, back when I had reeeeeally (many more e's) sharp teeth, and Dad had a new TV, and he accidentally dropped it on my head, and my head went down and my teeth banged into my leg, and, well, this was the result."
"Fungus. Fungus made it."
"Well, when I was little, we had this drawer, see, and it wouldn't open if you pulled; it would open if you pushed. So I was there, pushing it, and it opened and my psycho brother (who intentionally backflipped into a humoungous sinkhole in our backyard) had put a razorblade on the bottom. So..."
"AAAAAHHHH! I DON'T HAVE A CAR! NOR DO I HAVE A DRIVER'S LISCENCE!!!! CRAZY PERSON!!!" (Only for use if person says "How'd you get that scar?")
"AAAAH!" *runs away*
"I was wearing this suit with a bunch of zippers on it....and the one right there....bit me."
A note from Wolfgirl67: These might not be the best ways of getting people to be your friends. If you, however, want to scare them away, any one of these will work.
Andy P. C. and Vick both say fage. NDT: Fage? Wage? Fade? Huh? Wolfgirl67: I think it's face.

So you two are related? *should know this already* *head explodes* Argh, maybe my bro S will be on here someday. Now that's a scary thought. *runs away* "It's so hard to run with this sombrero on my head!"
(June 4, 2010 - 1:28 pm)
I definitely know that my brother would never be caught dead here...

To quote Wikipedia's Calvin and Hobbes article: "He also made a point of not showing certain things explicitly: the 'Noodle Incident' and the children's book Hamster Huey and the Gooey Kablooie were left to the reader's imagination, where Watterson was sure they would be 'more outrageous' than he could portray."
Things to say:
"I got a bad bite off a flobberworm."
"Dragon hunting is a very dangerous job."
"It means I'm the Chosen One! Didn't you know that? I thought everyone knew that!"
"Two words: Alien. Abduction."

@ZNZ: Yes, we are related. Little brother, big sister. And yes, you should know this already, since I have been posting it all over the CB ever since NDT came on, but I suppose a few people could have missed that...;)
Andy P. C. says ikkd. I kid. Yes I know, Andy, you haven't even had your second birthday yet...

"When my (dad/mom/aunt/uncle/whoever) was little, he had this pet porcupine, and when it died he stuffed it, and I was playing football with it, and yeah..."
(June 6, 2010 - 5:02 pm)
Sorry. *is ashamed* Guess I wasn't paying attention.
(June 6, 2010 - 7:17 pm)
You think so? I've always sort of envisioned him as a four-year-old...
