So I knocked over one of my pieces, and I was picking up the shards when I got pwned.

my middle finger got sliced open and now I'm bleeding errywhere. I have this like duct taped paper towel holding the blood back but it's not working very well.

You think I should go get stitched up? It's right on the top of my middle knuckle on my middle finger. It's a pretty clean cut, about a half inch long. I can curl my finger and it opens up pretty bad.

I wouldn't go to the docter just because I fucking hate stitches, and it does not seem nessisary

put a couple drops of crazy glue onto it that'll seal it right up with no stitches required

haha. buy butterfly band-aids. use them and leave them on for a few days. before you do that, run it under cold water for 5mins, and put a normal bandaid on it. then get the butterfly

i had a cut on my middle finger once. I cut it on my roof rack. They are a pain in the ass and take a long time to stop bleeding. I recommend to use neosporin or something to make sure it doesn't get infected. then use a bandaid or some bandage like you are doing except make sure to put a lot of pressure on it. it should stop eventually. but I'm not a doctor

And doctors are worth something. it is expensive but they know what they are doing and can save your life sometime.

either put superglue in it (no joke) or get some some butterflys. i suggest do both.
should hold it together and let it heal for the next couple of days

Even though some people have said it, I just want to back it up, use that super-fast drying crazy/super glue, it works good. If using superglue has you sketched out use a liquid bandage, which is the exact same thing as superglue, but it costs more and you get less.

I was just going to say. This kid I know decided one day while drinking that he would show how cool he was by taking his knife and cutting his forearm open. Huge fucking gash, all cured by superglue

how did you cut your hand picking up glass, i thought picking up glass was pretty elementary... don't try and stab the glass pieces with your hand, that won't do you any good! if anything, the glass'll just laugh at you for your futile efforts.

back in sophmore year when i was a complete dumbass i was scraping the inside of a broken bowl when i thought it would be a good idea to break the rest of it with my bare hands. 6 hours waiting in the hospital to get 6 stiches was not worth it.

Throw some salt on it and you'll be good to go.
