I got my ugliest-ever shaving injury this morning, and it wasn't on my face. I found a NOS 10-pack of Gillette Super Blue blades at an antique mall last week, and I decided to bust them out and see how they shave. They're in a plastic dispenser, and I found that the blades had become stuck together through the twenty-some years they had been sitting in that dispenser. In response to my effort to dislodge the top blade, the edges of the interior slot sliced through my thumb in parallel grooves. I now have a little racing stripe etched into my thumb.
I checked the remaining 9 blades after my shave this morning (which was okay, but really not worth the annoying flesh wound), and they were still halfway-fused together in the dispenser. (With bits of my thumb adorning them.) I threw the miserable thing in the trash.
