Did the SOB get up after you reciprocated in kind or do I need to road trip to explain proper manners to the miscreant?
Oh and glue if possible in my book

Glue has a more clean look to it and it is just as effective as stitches. However, glue CAN trap pockets of bacteria underneath where you can not clean, so it can lead to infection...where as with stitches you have access to clean the wound more effectively, but a more nasty look to it...
up to you :)

Get whatever the doctor says will leave the smallest scar.

Super glue, Ive closed some real big and deep cuts with the help of Super Glue, if you don't have any super glue, Duct Tape will always hold back the mess till you can reach a Hospital, working heavy construction i was always getting cuts and scrapes from clearing brush and on my D9 or just working on heavy equipment in general, blowing the tip of your finger out was common place from swinging a sledge when replacing brush hog cutters or bucket pins on the excavators and Missing lol :aok

duct tape and elmers works

I've always gotten stitches when I needed them.....I think they look cooler

'surgical' glue and 'super' glue are basically the same thing. Read all about it on WIKI

I remember in the late 70's, a control line modeller cut his hand from the tip of his pinky down to his wrist. His cut was glued at the field with a brand of CA called Hot Stuff. He was then driven to the hospital. After showing the attending physician the bottle of 'Hot Stuff', he was good to go !

i could've used that the other day.
i was mercilessly attacked by a rabid drill bit. it left me with a deep enough cut on my thumb, that will still start bleeding again, if i'm not careful.

Never been glued.
I've also never seen the point of getting stuck with a needle 12 times to "deaden the pain" of getting stuck with a needle 12 times.

I've gotten about a dozen stitches to my wrist without any anesthesia or numbing up before, with some shock and amazement afterwards from the young ER doc that did the work (and the "procedure" included a thorough saline rinseout of the cut and exposed goodies within, now THAT was uncomforitable).
Compared to the actual injury it was nothing and I fully agree with your point, a needle salamander is a needle salamander, but if I had the choice again (or in this case - knew I had the choice), I'd ask them for the morphine or something first. It wasn't the salamanders that bothered me, it's the feeling of so much string being run through you that's the weird/uncomforitable thing to me, kind of a nails on the chalk board feeling as you're watching and feeling it. I got some "double-layer" stitches too (what they explained them to me as) in that lot, those sucked twice as much as the regular ones.
I had little choice and had to get stitches in this case, and one end of the cut hit a tendon that was tough and made for a difficult "frayed" end/edge on one end of the cut, but the doc I got was a good stitcher and pulled a great job off on that end of the cut.

I ended up with a permanent scar after using the glue if that sort of thing bothers you.
Not sure it would have been any different had stitches been used in lieu.

Back in the day bungees came with some narly metal hooks, getting clogged in the head with one was the least of your worries.
