aright... heres the situation... my friend bought me a new lil bong after I broke my newer one 2 days ago (the 1st piece Id ever broken). Yesterday I was trying to mess with the bowl while I had the bong in my other hand. It was wet, it slipped, hit the only part of the metal part of my couch that was showing, and the bottom shattered into about 6 pieces. Shit. I couldnt believe what just happened. I hadnt even had it for 12 hours before I broke it. What the fuck. So I finally collected myself, cleaned the bong water off everywhere, got the superglue out and went to town. Well, its all together, looks a little shitty, but is still leaking. Ugh I was going to just re superglue over all the cracks, but is there something better i can use, or should I just give up? If only I could get it to stop leaking it would be perfectly fine... other than just looking retarded.

Sorry about your pipes. I am bad about breaking my pipes, too. Fortunately, I have glass blowing friends that keep me well stocked.
Try using silicone if you have it, or caulk. You can always paint over the ugliness.

I'm going to go with the silicone too... it takes a while to dry, but it's good.
Or eboxy. (for glass... I dunno... check)
Personally, though, I'd probably just hot-glue-gun it and smoke a bowl. Would take like five minutes.

Put the fixed-up thing on display as a conversation piece. Get yourself a brand-new bong for smoking.
You shouldn't trust a fixed-up bong for smoking because you never know if the heat of the flame/smoke my cause toxic fumes from the glue to escape.
Don't want to be inhaling that shit, you know?

The bowl will still work if it can form a seal. Sounded like the stem portion broke. I would just buy a new bowl instead of messing with adhesives. You will be out ~$15 but atleast you won't have to worry about glue toxicity.

plumbers putty is the shit. It never dries out, is non toxic, forms a great seal. I use the shit all the time when i make homemade bongs.

btw that putty has been around for ages. They rip you off two, you get only a few small vials for like 20 bucks. Go to home depot or lowes, you'll find the same compound for much cheaper.

That stuff works really well, actually. It's just unsightly.
On a side note, I hope that Billy Mays guy on the commercial dies in a tragic car accident. His voice is annoying as fuck.

silicone is always used for aquariums, so its waterproof.
Dont know what type of silicone would be best for this application, but I do know to make sure to get stuff WITHOUT mold inhibitors for aquariums, might be the same for this but im not sure
