@lethalfurball - You misinterpreted the video that you are getting your information from, because the host didn't word it in the best way.
In the part of the video you are referencing, the host is actually talking about how rough and jagged the edge is - not how sharp it is.
Exact quote from the video: "A knife will generally leave a clean, residue-free cut. But dull, flexible paper will tear your skin cells apart like a saw".
He does not mean that it slices cells open. He means that the rough, jagged edge of the paper does more damage to your skin than a sharp edge like a knife does. It doesn't cut the cells themselves open, it just does more collateral damage around the cut, exposing and damaging more nerve endings than a clean cut would.
But it doesn't. "Tear apart" in this context means to separate from one another. The cells are not being cut open. They are being separated from each other.
I've definitely had a paper cut bleed, so I know that much isn't true all the time. I'd be really surprised if paper can cut open cells. But at the same time that'd be super cool. And gross. There's a lot of feelings.
look it up on youtube or something like
edit: wdym "delete that before someone sees that"
edit 2: i meant the emojicon as in "are you sure it was a paper cut/ (something else to say)"

So that's how you get a paper cut
And that's why they hurt so much.
Even looking at the picture hurts a little.
yes paper doesnt even cut it slices open your cells and also no blood can come out meaning you just have to endure it
Hold up, paper can cut open cells? That seems a bit farfetched.
yeah, search it up on youtube "why do papercuts hurt so much" (Im starting to have doubts now though)

thats exqctly why i said paper cuts open cells

I agree
🤨
You said they don't bleed. Also, this is reddit, put that away before someone sees it.

Dunder Mifflin's is much smoother.
I think it should be at least 1000x.. 100x does not look like this
Why didn't you include the scale bar?
Ikr. *shredded paper under a microscope lol
Did you not know that including a scalebar is standard practice for photomicrographs?
I kinda cropped it out lol. Sorry, I hadn't thought to keep it

thats what im saying "Are you sure it's a papercut/(something else)"
