Steve said we had to be creative with new threads, and the first thing that occurred to me was my sore left hand, so here goes, chronologically from age three to present:

Broken right arm, twice (climbing & roller skating).
Broken right collarbone (rugby, more or less).
Torn ACL, left knee (tae kwon do).
Torn ACL, right knee (tae kwon do).
Broken left hand (horseback riding).

Take that, Steve!

Broken all my fingers except the thumbs multiple times. (Tang Soo Do and Football)
Broken many toes (Tang So Doo and general clumsiness around things while barefoot)
Broken Fifth Metacarpal on left hand (Football)
Bit completely through the skin below my lower lip (Fell asleep in shower after exhaustive soccer match in the snow)
6 double stitch repair to my scalp (Soccer, clanked heads with another guy) This one was the worst, nothing bleeds like a head wound and the skin is so thick that the doctor could not get the needle through my skin without great force and every time he tightened the stitch it would pull my head off the table. The anesthetic wouldn't work so I just finally told him to do it and get it over with. Ouch.

You guys are train wrecks!

My nose was broken when I was dancing with a drunk idiot in 1990 who stood up and hit the bottom of my nose with the top of his head. There have been various other scuffles and scrapeups, but never any bones broken.
