You guys are slipping. I've read all the replies and nobody's so far said

HAVE YOU HAD STITCHES BEFORE? No . . . but I've had stitches AFTER.

I've had stitches many times, but always after some kind of event - never before.

Sorry, couldn't help myself.

Man I pulled the same sh|t except I was like 12 when it happened (also I had a pillowcase over my head to look like a ghost, wasn't that smart") well anyways my the time I got the pillowcase off there was a foot wide blood stain on it and I was like WTF?!?!, but I got staples into the skull and not stitches!

I was at a Denny's roughly a month ago at 1:00am after a 16 hour programming session. We were sat one booth away from a corner booth. 1:45am rolls around and a half a dozen drunkards show up and get sat in the corner booth. They're all loud and boisterous and at one point, a fork gets thrown onto my table. I turn around and politely tell them to shut the fvck up and return the fork at high velocity. As a result, I got hit over the head with a beer bottle. Blood everywhere. Five stitches.

Lesson learned, though - don't provoke half a dozen drunk and angry 18 year olds by yourself.

Three to the chest when I had my nipple removed.





j/k It was some cystic thing.
The resultant squashed bug imprint is slowly fading.

I have never had stitches, but I got four staples in the head after I hit it on a shelf.

Not a very exciting story, I prefer to say I was jumped by ninjas and was injured in the epic battle that ensued as I fought them off.

And they were armed with staplers?

Yes, on my lower throat after neck surgery to remove a couple of herniated discs and fuse the bones together.
