I somehow stabbed myself in the meaty part between the thumb and forefinger with a pencil when I was about 10 or so. The lead broke off deep in my hand.
For some reason, nobody ever did anything about getting it out, and my hand eventually healed over it. It’s still there to this day, decades later and you can faintly see it.
And before the comments start… it’s not actually lead; it’s graphite. My body never showed any sign of infection or rejection. It’s just there…

the fact that pencil lead srays in your hand without moving makes me want to buy an rfid microchip from dangerous things and stick it in my hand to unlock my front door when im older. I'll never forget my keys https://dangerousthings.com/product/xem/

Mine happened way back in the day when they didn’t bother with any of that sissy numbing shit. 🤪
