    You do know that they actually use super glue in the hospitals to keep certain types of cuts closed. Right? Like that was one of the original purposes of super glue if I recall correctly. Super glue is absolutely fantastic for nice clean cuts that are too narrow or deep for actual stitches. It’s also great for very jagged cuts that stitches won’t hold together. You can also use it in conjunction with stitches to hold together a decent amount of cuts.

      Yeah, but like most things of this nature, there’s a bit of a difference between medical grade and what you grabbed off the shelf at 7/11 while bleeding out. Still does in a pinch, but making it clear this is not, uh, proper medical advice.
