Gigmata n. pl.

May also be applied to more serious injuries, such as occasioally occur.

Heh heh :-D

Goes with my NINjury from when I ripped open my leg going to see Mr Reznor and friends in Manchester last year. I still have a scar... Unfortunately the pics don't do the injury, as it was then, justice :-(

Heh!
NINjury is pretty specific, though - a specific type of gigmata, perhaps?

[hieroglyphe.livejournal.com]

I agree with you there. There must be other specific types of gigmata, I just can't think of them now.

Listening to The Knife at the mo - they'd be great for a specific gigmata category, but I somehow doubt their gigs are the sort that are likely to prove particularly injurious... Ah well, at least the video selection with Deep Cuts is ace - clearly the work of insane genius :-)

Cigmata n. pl. The yellow nicotine stain on the palm of someone who keeps their fingers basketed around their cigarette when they're smoking it.

Oft found among sneaky sentries ...

I seem to have an unfortunately impressive bruise in the middle of my forehead, where it encountered someone's elbow last night...

There did seem to be a number of such elbows ...
