text: Usually, when your finger quickly goes against the edge of a paper (which is thicker than a razor blade) you get a paper cut. I used to get them a lot in gradeschool since I reached into my desk, sliding my fingers alongside workbooks to identifiy which subject they were, ending up in multiple paper cuts.\nGiving yourself a paper cut is possible, run your finger very quickly along the edge of printing paper. I have stupid cousins who have tried it.
