DOH!!!
Tweeker.
eewww . owww
Art Bell once glued his lips shut while on-air in the late 90’s - actually while during a commercial break...
It was funny listening to him mumble out what had happened...
I acidentally shot super glue into my eye and it glued shut immediately. I was trying to get the new tube to dispense glue and turned it up to look down into the hole...it released and shot a few drops right onto my eyeball. It was hot and immediately glued shut. Nothing I could do.
I was working for a doctor at the time. In fact, I was working on a patient at the time. We made custom appliances for patients after repairs of their tendons.
My boss trimmed the excess glue from my eye, then sent me across town to an ophthalmologist. He put some sort of ointment in it, put a patch on it, and said “it will come off in a few days.” And it did.
I HATE it when that happens!

I would panic!
Remember a few years ago that someone was said to have been super glued to a toilet seat? I wonder how that all came out. : (
This makes no sense.
When my father asked him whether he'd put it in both eyes, his friend laughingly replied, "What do you think, I'm stupid or something?"
I use eye drops occasionally for dry eyes. I use super-glue occasionally for this or that task. I can’t really imagine mistaking one for the other.
You know, I see this all the time, women without jobs just all over those macho no hable ingles leafblower dudes. Those guys are such chick magnets. Man, it’s like baby ducklings following the leaf blower all over the yards.
Wonder why she carries superglue in her purse and if she also has a roll of duct tape and vice grips there as well.
My wife once glued our pugs eye shut. We came back from the vet and put the pups eyedrops on the counter (about 12 inches away from the super glue bottle that looked exactly the same, same shape , same shape and color of lid, same droper....everything. The only difference was the printed label.
“The mishap occurred when someone using a leaf blower last week blew debris into Gaydos eye. She said she yelled for him to go into her purse and get her Visine, but what he poured into her eye was glue used for applying false fingernails.”

It still doesn’t make sense. Who goes into a screaming panic because she got a bit of leaf or dust in her eye? Just shut your eye for a minute, blink a few times ... and if that doesn’t work, find a mirror and pick the stuff out.
