It has been brought to my attention that I might have made a mistake! I know, shocking.

All noodle scars appreciated and worn with pride (as they should be, whether fully deserved or not).
Adding in "No, quite the opposite" doesn't clearly indicate that the clue should be switched around.
I was trying to avoid being too clear...
