It's a bird, it's a plane .... it's superGLUE!

BPC superglued her thumb to her shoe last night. She sat on the floor with her thumb stuck to her brown Paprika heels while Arfiman stood tut-tutting with an "I told you so" (Mostly because he HAD told me so).

Ah well ... a word of advice from the experienced: in the event of digits superglued to articles that cannot be damaged (superglued finger or no superglues finger, I was NOT cutting a hole in my shoe!!!), a little Nivea and a butter knife goes a long way.

Digit might feel a bit sore afterwards.

Ouch!

Guess what: this reminds me of something!

Do you remember the superglue that was sold in the 80s, the type that came with a thin, long needle which you had to use to pierce the seal of the tube containing the glue... except that after the a few days, the hole made by the needle would seal over again, and you had the use needle again and again each time you needed the glue. Remember that?

Well, one time, I needed to use some super glue, so I got the needle and started shoving it into the front of the tube, trying to pierce the seal... but then, suddenly, the seal gave way more easily than expected, the needle plunged right into the tube, and out the other end, AND RIGHT INTO MY THUMB WHICH WAS HOLDING THE TUBE!

It took me a few seconds to realise what had happened, but when I started trying to pull the needle out of my thumb, the glue was already doing what glue does best, so I had to yank extra hard to de-attach the damn thing from my body.

And you know what? I bet if Arfiman had been there at the time, he would've said, "I told you so."

awwwww... super glue stories! There should be a website where people collect their traumatic experiences.

Fortunately, I'm too smart for this kind of stuff. :D

BPC, hope your "digit" feels better soon.
