Managed to perfectly perforate my chin with one of these as a foolish 16 year old in my first job. Entirely user error (I'll let you guess how) and left my chin looking like you could tear it off like a postage stamp for weeks after.

Safe to say I wasn't allowed to use it again after that, so my only experience with these is that they're terrible - though that's probably not a fair judgement given the circumstances πŸ˜‚.

You’re not supposed to lick them.

Very sage advice, though in this instance the issue was more me trying to tear off a small piece of tape by holding the dispenser at face level with the blade facing towards me... Whilst pushing the strip of tape away from me to try and tear it. I learned an important lesson about physics that day.
