People Are Sharing Their "Lead" Pencil Scars And You Definitely Know Someone Who Has One

    There are so many of us.

    It happens more often than you think.

    Am I the only one that still has a mark from getting stabbed by a pencil in elementary

    You're just sitting there and BAM — you're permanently tattooed for life.

    Still have a pencil mark from where I got stabbed in 5th grade. Not how I envisioned my first tattoo.. #imasurvivor

    You may forget it's still there...but you'll never forget HOW it got there:

    @Los_Writer Happened during 3rd grade, walked to the nurse with the whole pencil still in 😭😭

    It doesn't matter if it happened decades ago — it's not going away.

    I still have a blue spot on my knee from when @reseriction stabbed me with a pen in 8th grade

    Maybe it was in 5th grade...

    Anyone else have a "graphite tattoo" from being stabbed with a pencil? I've had mine since 5th grade.

    You can find them on wrists...

    I was stabbed with a pencil in primary 6 and this ‘lead mark’ in my arm has never gone away. Can I get it out? Is it there forever more? Anyone else?

    On knees...

    @bubbleIPL @shereeny @offbeatorbit Woah! I knelt on a pencil at a slumber party in the 1980’s (3rd grade I think). We were doing Mad Libs. We have the same mark. I still can’t believe my mother didn’t take me to get it taken out the next day.

    On feet...

    @Los_Writer happened when i was like 8, had a pencil on the floor that got stuck in the carpet at a weird angle and stabbed my toe!! i always figured it would go away by now but no 🤷‍♀️

    On that weird l'il area between your thumb and pointer finger...

    On your dang HEAD...

    @Los_Writer Hello. I got frustrated while practicing single digit multiplication in 3rd grade and decided to slam my head on the table. However, I hit my pencil that was sticking point up. It’s still here 11 years later.

    On EARS?!?!?

    @Chinohoven Some girl sharpened her pencil and ran straight at me to show me and stabbed me instead

    In your MOUTH?!?!

    @Los_Writer Hello one time my sister stabbed me with a pencil when we were playing tag

    It's time for all of us to embrace our beautiful graphite tattoos. EMBRACE THE PENCIL TAT.

    YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!!

    @GenderCoping @unkilledwoman Jos Truitt. Stabbed me with my own pen when I was eleven.

    There are thousands like us out there.

    Never forget that time that one kid stabbed you with a pencil in third grade.

    Never forget that one time you accidentally poked yourself in Math class and changed your life FOREVER.

    @Los_Writer @kalesalad middle school, stabbed myself w a sharpened pencil by moving my leg too close to my backpack on the floor 🤷‍♀️

    Embrace the dot.

    I got stabbed by a pencil 12 years ago and the graphite is still there haha #firsttattoo

    BE THE DOT.

    It's a badge of honor.

    YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!!!!!
