what bandaid do you prefer?

[Suspicious-Teach8788]

i sliced my finger pretty bad when cutting onions once. i put a fucking napkin around it... LOL and then I taped it up. disgusting.

then my med school friend yelled at me and drove me to walgreens to get some neosporin and bandages. i was bleeding pretty badly.

We call them plasters, and I just use whatever is available, no preference.

Dammit. Now I am picturing BoomerD in nothing but a well placed band-aid.
Thanks princess ida.

Just for you...

Mesh/fabric ones, regardless of brand. I don't like having sensitive gooy white pruned skin when I go to remove the bandaid. Stretchy fabric ones for use around joints.

I don't see a point in buying the cheapest ones, since any box of them will last years.

 

[Jeff7]

The really expensive fabric ones. They don't come off and can take a beating and still keep the wound clean.

Without a doubt, fabric.

It also lets the skin breathe better, and it's more flexible.

I like the clear band-aid ones. I detest the Curad ones.

Whatever they have at Costco when I go to buy band-aids...

Last time it was 4.6 million Nexcare band-aids in assorted sizes, packaged in worthless plastic "envelopes...most of which don't fit my big fingers...so I always end up with tons of the child-size...and their worthless "waterproof" band-aids left over. (which I usually give to my daughter for the grandkids...even though they're far from being flesh-tone for them)
This last time, it was 3.7 million Band-aid brand band-aids...packaged in oblong plastic boxes. I'm sure I'll have lots of the odd-ball sizes left over from these as well...but at least the plastic boxes will be usable for something...maybe.

i wonder...
is it possible to buy bulk bandages , online?

 

[gsellis]

Curad. Surf tested on toes inside Churchhill fins.

Edit - and forgot the important part - static electricity fire opening them in the dark.

Duh...of course it is...and I should start doing that instead of buying them at Costco..

I just empty the gunpowder out of a 12 gauge shell, light it, and cauterize the fucker rambo style. :ninja:

Seriously, any sized wound that a bandaid would cover clots quick enough. Vitamin K FTW.

 

[alkemyst]

band aids are for pussies

bleeding all over yourself and others is not cool.

It makes me feel like a gladiator!

 

[trmiv]

I'm stuck on Band-Aid brand 'cause Band-Aid's stuck on me!

Depends on the type of wound. A nice slice around your hand can be problematic, because normal movements open it back up far quicker than a good scab can form, and even keep any from forming at all, for awhile.

I use duct tape + super glue.
