    Glass is sharp as hell. A sharp cut in desensitized skin is genuinely hard to notice. So, don’t beat yourself up too much!

      Yeah, using OP’s picture it cut like this, so it was likely a glass cup or bottle that someone has cracked or just how my foot managed to bend when stepping. I just walked back, poor rubbing alcohol on it, put 2 things of super glue in it and kept drinking. What else are you supposed to do in college 🤷

        haha good ol super glue… Just as a friendly tip: Use something like New-Skin or VetBond instead of superglue. Superglue uses toxic solvents in large percentages, but New-Skin/etc use safer alternatives and also have additives that make the cured result a bit more flexible.

        Soo much better than bandaids on most scrapes/etc, although on places that still flex a ton like fingers or in/around joints, salve+bandaid can still be better.
