Because there's nothing we like more than finding used bandages in the gym, on the subway or in our Pad Thai.

It is not a world of men.

When I didn’t shave and had a band aid I needed to remove, I ripped that sucker off at full speed. What was that Mario Puzo line? Oh, yeah: you can act like a man.

Bandages? whiskey tango foxtrot is wrong with you gents?

Two words: Krazy Glue.

And it dries clear so you don't have to fuss about your Strawberry Shortcake band-aids that you'd suddenly rather conceal.

Why is this not a poll? I think we should all be enfranchised in the decision to remove karim's bandage. Every vote counts!!!

If this bandage isn't removed by now, you have serious issues that require mental help to overcome your intense fear or arm-hair pulling :P

Usually this is only a concern for me if I expect that the tugging on the hairs will cause the cut to open up again. In that case I usually begin peeling back the bandage and slicing the adherent hairs with a scalpel.

I haven't...I totally should have done it. I'm having some problems with my computer at home (see thread tags) so I wouldn't have been able to post them anyways.

Next time I have a bizarre problem that I feel everyone who reads body consciousness should know about, I'll remember to post a poll.

I ended up using Huntsman's method for about an inch of the medical tape (it was about 4" total), and ended up pulling it out. I'm missing a lot of armhair, but I am also missing the bandage.

Good advice. Also, I love multi-quote.

Seriously, grow a pair and rip it off.

Pretty much. Does removing a band aid require this much thought and inspiration of dread? Are you an infant? And if so, how have you learned to use the computer and type in coherent English so quickly?
