 A few hours ago, the shard you see was still attached to the glass. A little crack was going down the curved side before. After I noticed the crack a while ago, I tested its strength by putting pressure on the sides. Worked totally fine and I used that glass for years. Today while doing the dishes when I put my hand and a sponge into the glass, the shard broke off. So, please don't hand wash any glasses that have a small crack. Throw them out! Even if they seem stable. If you want to see what can happen when you hand wash a glass that suddenly has a sharp edge, click this link. It's a bit bloody and maybe NMS. https://imgur.com/a/YrqgzQL PSA End

My father once had that happen to a wine glass he was cleaning. When he went to the ER to get it stitched up, they called it a 'housewife's cut' since only women wash dishes.

On the second day that I lived in my first by-myself apartment, I decided to do the responsible adult thing and wash my dishes right after I used them. I ended up getting cut in a similar but not NEARLY as severe fashion, and 10 years later the scar is still (barely) visible.

Get get a bottle brush pronto, OP. I cut myself on a hurricane glass in a similar way years ago, and I learned my lesson.

I had one of those big glass pint mugs that they use at lovely sports bars. You can pick them up for cheap at your local thrift store, because they almost always have a crack in them. The one I had was like this, big crack around the circumference of the bottom, but it hung in there for years, until one day when I made myself a big old whiskey coke and the entire bottom dropped out. What a mess. Nowadays I just throw a glass out if I even think it might have a crack in the near future.

Did anyone mention masturbating with a bandaged hand yet? Soaks up the blood, soaks up the cum, and now you have a homemade cum covered boxing glove.

A few years ago, I snagged and cut my lip on a glass that I had forgiven for being damaged and kept to have the set complete. Even after the cut, I still washed it in the sink. Then, one night, I was washing it and it just broke in my hands. I threw it away thinking that I was lucky that I didn't break it on my face. So, from then on, I just toss glasses with chips in them. They're not worth the harm. I do this with the wine glasses at work, if I see a chip on them, Id rather toss it and get a new one than have a guest slice up their face. I hope for a speedy recovery for everybody itt with injuries, and kudos for being neat and tidy <3

They say you shouldn't use cracked dishes and glasses because bacteria move into those cracks and hang out in there and eventually move out to kill you.

Personal anecdote, thanks for reading: I live with my grandparents, who historically have hated throwing out absolutely anything that has some feasible use remaining. There are several glasses in the cupboard that I'm afraid will just explode in my hand if I try to drink from them because, according to my grandma, "the scratch doesn't go all the way through so it's okay". We share ownership of the house, so technically if I wanted to I could just get rid of them and buy new kitchen-ware, but then they would hold a grudge against me until they trip and fall into their graves and I don't wanna spend the last 5 years of their lives with them sniping at me about cups edit: For reference, I accidentally dropped a jug of arnold palmer arizona tea because I was weak from crohns surgery literally 2 years ago, and any time I am seen with one in my hand they go "wooAAHH watch OUT CJ don't DROP it ha ha ha". Why are old people like this
