If you staple yourself, do you have to get a tetanus shot?
You'll only need a Tetanus shot if you experience any of the symptoms listed below in the first source. I've also included a few experiences others have had, from Yahoo Answers. You should be alright, but keep an eye on the wound and watch for any symptoms.

About Tetanus Shot
A tetanus shot is required to avoid tetanus infection, which can result from minor injuries -- stepping on a nail, for example, or other puncture wounds caused by dirty objects. Tetanus, commonly called lockjaw during World War II, has been largely eliminated by immunization.
