Am I just being a boomer, or do bandaids not stick to you like they used to? (hexbear.net)

I remember back when I was younger, a bandaid might stay on my finger for two or more days. These days it feels like no matter where I put them, the second anything rubs against them they just fall right off. And I’m not talking just name brand shit, but everything. I don’t feel like I have used a decent bandaid in years and they’re always frustratingly bad at staying on. In fact, the idea of “ripping off the bandaid” hurting is not something I’ve thought about in years because they never stay on long enough to have to be taken off.

Please let me know if this is real or I am just tweaking

It's been my experience with most of them too. The exception is the Band–Aid fabric bandages, those are legit and stay put better than anything else I have used.

Ok I’m glad that somebody else is experiencing this as well because I feel the same way. The only half decent ones are the slightly elastic ones that feel more like fabric than plastic
