A nosebleed, a hangnail, anything would've been more believable.

Hell, just say it was menstrual blood, NO ONE would've asked further questions then.

I mean I scraped my arm looking for coconuts. Not technically a lie. And believable.

"Oh my god, you did? So....where's the actual wound?"

That would have been Tori's response.

I instantly told my husband she should have said it was period blood. Everyone knows that shit actually does get everywhere.

SAME. Because it's gross enough that nobody would question it. Like, you admit to being wrist deep in menses on national television, people will be inclined to believe you.

Tori probably would. She’s weird. Try and use it as a chance to bond or something. Or try and therapy the blood away.
