Just took a staple to the thumb trying to fix the office stapler, got it all the way in to the bone. Managed to pull it out with my teeth :\

Pulled off the good ol' paper towel and tape trick so I wouldn't cover my keyboard in blood.

with it wrapped up like that, you could be faking

I guess you can still see the marks, lol.

do you think it'll get infected?
maybe you need a tetanus shot

If you haven't had a tetanus shot within five years, your doctor may recommend a booster within 48 hours of the injury.

I kept my man card and hand-sanatized the shit out of it, I'll apply Neosporin and bandage it properly when I get back home in an hour. I'm pretty sure I've had the tetanus shot in the past 5 years.

I'm kind of freaked out to go to the gym now though :\

Did that once in grade 5 with a mini stapler. All the way in... That was painful.
