Scabs...(poll)

DH thinks I'm basically insane.

So tell me...

Do you pick your scabs?

Re: Scabs...(poll)

  • I always pick my scabs. I hate them, so I pick them.

    Yes, I know it's bad. Yes, I know they create scars. Spare me any lecture, because I know it all.

    I just HAVE to pick them, though!

  • I totally pop blisters (with a needle or tweezers) too. And if I have a zit with crap in it that gets dispatched as well. Ingrown hairs (on the rare occasions I get them) are excavated as well. I just don't have it in me to let things be, gross/scarring or not.

    I said no, because I don't pick at scabs (my dad gets in trouble with my mom for doing it, so maybe I learned from him getting told not to).

    But I'm with Kenna...if I have a pimple, it gets popped.  And, yes, I also know that scars, and is the reason the skin on my face is not as smooth as I'd like it to be.  I just can't walk around with something like that on my face, though.

    I said I pick scabs sometimes, but typically don't make it a point too or anything...but everything Kenna said is me 100%

  • Well I'm glad at least some people do!

    DH apperantly didn't know I liked to pick my scabs. I thought everyone picked their scabs (how can you NOT!) and he was like, "uhhh...no. Not everyone does."
    So now he thinks I'm weird(er).

  • I hate the word "scab."  It gives me chills.  I shouldn't be posting on this thread because it bumps it back up to the top, but I had to tell you how grossed out I get every time I see this thread title.  I can't wait for it to go to page 2.

     And no.  I don't pick scabs.  Eww!!!

    Erin, we are very obviously grossed out by all the same things!  I get a little sick to my stomach reading through this post, to be quite honest.
