If You Got Stabbed By A Pencil And Have A Mark, So Does Everyone Else

We all did some pretty dumb things as kids, believing we were immortal and oblivious to just how dangerous the world actually is. Seriously, who thought lawn darts were a good idea? But by far one of the dumbest trends when I was a kid was intentionally stabbing yourself, or willing others, with incredibly sharp pencils.
The scars from getting stabbed by a pencil will last into adulthood, and apparently most people have one or two. Twitter user Los_Writer recently took to the social media platform to see if anyone else had a battle wound.
Hello I’m looking for people who have led from their pencil stuck inside their bodies

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. pic.twitter.com/ZrkKAsI8bS
