Don't drink and mount frags...

Just a friendly reminder, it may not be the best idea to mount your frags from a swap after a few beers

If you DO decide to, certainly don't hold the top for the super glue tube in your mouth while you're working.

If for some reason, you ignore my advice to this point, absolutely, positively do not, under any circumstances attempt to put the top back on the tube while it's still in your mouth, as you will glue your lips together, and it will be a full 15 minutes before your wife stops laughing at your stupid a$$ long enough to help you

I unknowingly stepped on glob of super glue that dropped on the floor with my bare foot while I was mounting a frag. Tried to walk over to the tank and patch of skin from my foot was left on the floor... super glued... OUCH

A local radio personality here on the way to the station accidently glude his tung to the roof of his mouth, it was a gereat morning broadcast!!!!! I never put it near my mouth and always wear latex gloves, but I do over due things in the tank when it comes Martini time.

My aunt put super glue in her eye one time thinking it was her eye drops. She should have gotten out her glasses first.

At least it only took her 15 minutes to stop laughing and help. I think my wife would have left me as is for a lot longer than that.

I was trying to take the cap off of a 'stuck' tube, and I held the cap in my mouth and twisted the tube... the tube tore and the glue went in my mouth.

Anyone that has had a mouth full of superglue will mention the glue on the backs and between their teeth. It lasted for a month for me too!!!

This happened to me about 5 years ago. I'm so glad to hear I'm not the only one. My top and bottom teeth were glued together (briefly) and I had a layer of superglue on my tongue. When there's superglue on the back of your teeth, it actually keeps you from falling asleep somehow!!! that was the worst month that I can remember.

I feel like I found my long-lost brother.
