I have a splinter

in my middle finger on the fingerprint side.
It's in there good. I've been picking at it for a half hour with tweezers and trying to pinch it out with my thumbs. It won't budge.
Should I go buy a needle to cut around it and pull it out?

needles will do the trick. Push the needle in and push the splinter out

You know...I've started some really inane threads before. So, I will not criticize you very harshly for starting this one. But, what the hell were you thinking? I mean...come on.

Needles are key to removing splinters.

depending on how deep it is, sterilize the needle and get it out to avoid infection.
that's nothing compared to what happened to me last week though, cut right through the tip of my little finger with a piece of glass; the wound was pretty fucking deep but it's healing up now.

That would definately make the thread more interesting.
Hurry up though. I have to leave in five minutes to go watch paternity tests on the Maury Show.

I'm just trying to cut myself open a little so that I can get the tweezer in deep enough to pull this thing out
Do you mean put the needle in behind the splinter and push out? Cut that sounds rough

It is good that he showed up as I'm sure that he never comes into contact with pussy that much.
Fuck...I'm being an asshole today. Sorry.

Yeah, but is yours too deep to get it in there? Sometimes you get those splinters wedged into the muscle just below the skin, and it bleeds like a mofo and you gotta cut it out.

soak the finger in warm water
if you were a real man though you would cut it out with a knife
