I remember back when I was younger, a bandaid might stay on my finger for two or more days. These days it feels like no matter where I put them, the second anything rubs against them they just fall right off. And I’m not talking just name brand shit, but everything. I don’t feel like I have used a decent bandaid in years and they’re always frustratingly bad at staying on. In fact, the idea of “ripping off the bandaid” hurting is not something I’ve thought about in years because they never stay on long enough to have to be taken off.

Please let me know if this is real or I am just tweaking

    I use a band aid until there's no more bleeding then sanitize and just apply glue strait from the tube. I've also used some spray-on bandaids but they are expensive and super glue is cheap and usually already lying around.

        There's also "liquid bandage" stuff, which is just superglue in a glass bottle with a brush applicator. The bottle prevents the glue from drying out, and the brush is really handy for spreading the glue around past the edges of the wound.

          Not quite just super glue - medical super glue uses a slightly different formulation that doesn't irritate the wound like regular super glue.
