there's supposed to be a superglue disolver for sale somewhere, you'd think it'd be as popular as the glue but i've never seen it

Yes - see below. Skin = 1st link; Clothes = 2nd link
Clothing/Fabrics
Use acetone and an old toothbrush, reapplying the acetone a number of times and brushing to remove it layer-by-layer. Work on outside and then on inside. May not come off entirely
Skin
Immerse bonded areas in warm, soapy water. Peel or roll skin apart; a spatula or teaspoon handle or even a pencil will help. Remove cured adhesive with warm, soapy water (may take several applications). Fingernail polish remover with an acetone base has also been successful for removal of cured adhesive from skin.
Lips
If lips are accidentally stuck together, apply a generous amount of warm water and encourage maximum wetting and pressure from saliva from inside the mouth. Peel or roll (do not pull) lips apart. It is almost impossible to swallow the adhesive as a liquid. The adhesive solidifies upon contact with saliva (moisture) and could adhere to the inside of the mouth. Saliva will lift the adhesive in 1-2 days, avoid swallowing the adhesive after detachment.
Eyelid
In the event that eyelids are stuck together or bonded to the eyeball, wash thoroughly with warm water and apply a gauze patch. The eye will open without further action within 1-4 days. To our knowledge there has never been a documented case of adhesive in the eye causing permanent damage. Do not try to force eyes open.
Eyeball
The adhesive will attach itself to the eye protein and will disassociate from it over time, usually within several hours. Periods of weeping and double vision may be experienced until clearance is achieved. Use of a warmed 3% sodium bicarbonate solution to wash eyes repeatedly may assist in aiding more rapid removal of the adhesive

Get some glue remover to get it off your clothes. For the glue on your skin, just continue to rub it until it comes off. We actually played with superglue in my school, glueing our thumbs and index fingers together. It eventually wore off though ;).

You can get it off your skin by scrubbing a lot, or physically removing your skin (which I don't recommend). GIve it some time and it will wear off. Clothes...I've never gotten it on my clothes. I'd say you're probably not going to get it out, but repeated washing's the only thing that could really work...

if you get super glue on you cloths the best way to get it of is by putting it in the freezer , after 2/3 hours you will be able to pick the glue of your cloths very easely, as for you skin all I can say is soak it in warm soapy water for a few minutes and the gently peel it off.

I accidentally super glued my shoe to my foot. At the hospital they used hot water and a scalpel to remove it. I thought there was some kind of anti super glue stuff, believe me there ain't. Toes are fine now.

Nail polish remover with acetone in it! My son shaved his head when he was little and super glued his hair back on. It was a big mess but we all still laugh about it.
