A piece of stray glass that I didn’t catch.
It was so small but it dug into the skin and took forever to get it out.

Plug on a lamp cord on wooden floor.

@Tropical_Willie
Yeah I did that once too…not funny.

@Tropical_Willie Two years ago I passed out on my power bar. Woke up twitching and in pain. I broke most of the power cords from my back.

Lego bricks really are the worst

Toothpick. Tacks. Glass. Stickers.

Mine was a tiny sliver of metal. No clue where it came from but it was really, really tiny. Couldn’t get it worked out for myself so I had to break down and go to a doctor. Even he had a hard time finding it and getting it out. Guess I’ll never know from whence it came

Dog bone.

I was in a riot once in 1979. I was barefoot. Ran all over the park for hours. The park was packed with stickers which I simply didn’t notice because of the adrenaline. Boy, I noticed it the next day.

Not a household object, but a mussel in Lake Balaton. Twice.
Cut right through my socks and flesh.

Another vote for Lego.

A “jack” (miniture caltrop) that was in a shag carpet. Hurt like a motherf——.

I jumped up once, many years ago, and came down on an upside-down metal Pepsi bottle cap. I have no words to describe how badly it hurt.

I had to tell the college guys who lived up stairs to quit throwing their beer bottle caps in the yard!

A beetle.

We have gum tree spike balls in our yard. Haven’t stepped on one (yet) but I bet they’d hurt!

My brothers foot. To this day my head still suffers severe trauma, and when ever I see his foot I immediately s### my pants and scream “Witness me!” whilst running down the street naked and staining my teeth with silver spray paint.
A little life advice: NEVER step on a siblings foot, you will regret it.

Somehow I stepped on a nail in such a way that it got stuck in my heel. That sucked. Stepped on Legos and glass before too. Legos hurt a lot initially but it goes away. Glass is painful only when you keep walking on it. The cure is to dig it out, which is fun too.
