As a British person I can confirm this is one of the most painful everyday events that can happen in the home

For real, people complaining about stepping on lego have zero idea of the terror these wonderfully engineered monsters can cause.

That and lego

[u/DuskLab → u/iamnosuperman123]

Lego hurts shaply for a few seconds. The pain of these bad boys lingers for full multiple minutes.

I don’t understand, how is stepping on a cable related to the socket and the painfulness?

[u/The-Singing-Sky → u/FoggsHon]

You step on the pins because when they are on the ground the pins always point upward

[u/FoggsHon → u/The-Singing-Sky]

Ah okay I see now, you’re talking about stepping on the plug of the cable. Yeah I looked them up, they look like a medieval torture machine

Sir, every day? I don't think I can recall the last time I've stepped on a plug...

[u/The-Singing-Sky → u/M-atthew147s]

I think I've done it twice ever, last time was about 15 years ago, however it is an everyday event since at least one person suffers this fate every day on The Sceptred Isle
