Today, I was riding a longboard down a hill and I fell off. I was all scraped up so I made sure to clean my wounds and put bandages on them. Turns out I'm allergic to the glue on the bandages and I have itchy hives all over and around my open wounds. FML

OP means original poster. And YLIF. That's a total add-insult-to-injury situation. Become familiar with Neosporin and gauze. :)

I guess no one realizes that you can become allergic to certain things over time. I know quite a few people who are now allergic to certain fruits that they used to eat when they were younger.

High five for longboarding! Going down hill and biting it is the best way to hurt yourself... boy, do I know from experience.

For all those morons saying "havent you ever use a band aid before", etc, maybe he used a new band aid?!! a brand he has never used before? And you don't have to be born with the allergy, you can suddenly become allergic to something you've always been in contact with, and never had any problems with. God people are stupid.
