stitches over staples... well i've never had staples but wrap yourself around this then even try to say anything about me getting stitches

when i was 5 years old, we had a severly mean-evil ass cat... it would chase my friends around like a pitbull, and let me tell you, only a person or two ever let it catch them... the ruthlessness that i speak of, didn't come from it's chasing, it came from what it would do to em (i had someone once jump up on a fridge just to get away from it) well... one day it snapped, and jumped on my head... at 5 years old, i have a full grown cat, clawing my neck and back, ripping me apart.... 100 or so stitches... at 5 YEARS OLD! there was no anesthetic, there was no comfort, they had to literally stitch me up like a ragdoll cuz i was bleeding so bad, they were scared of me dying (i forget the actual word, what is when you bleed to death?) not to mention i was bleeding so bad, even if they tried to give me anesthetic, i woulda bled most of it out anyways....

now, i understand why.. but back then i saw a bunch of doctors sticking multiple needles in me, stitching me up... and it traumatized me... and to tell you the truth, even tho i've never had staples... i woulda rathered the staples... i'm sure that doesn't involve them pulling some needle and 'thread' through your skin, and more of a 'staple type machine' that does it all in one quick 'swoosh'...

and the injuries i speak of above, are ones that are stitch worthy... not just 'oww i scraped my knee' we're talking, knife in my leg, half my thumb cut open, foot cut wide open, wrist slashed to the vien (unnintentional)... ect ect... nothing 'small'... shit i really shoulda gone to the hospital over...
