A tip for you all: If you ever drop a box of toothpicks, make sure you find them all.
Half an inch of pointed, wooden toothpick in the ball of your foot is a very unpleasant experience.

Eeyouch !!!
HaShem yishmor! You must have seen stars.
I hope that it all came out cleanly, and that your tetanus shots are current.

May your pain go away soon !
Ouch! Refua shlema.
Oh boy! Hope you are OK now. Cheer up, I have a similar rule: when you have killed a wasp, make sure it a) stays killed and b) does not crawl into your shoe to recover. If you like, you can reverse the order of the two sub-rules.
No details in writing ;-)
I thought tetanus shots was for rusty metal objects.
I think I got one a bunch of years ago, after having no idea how long ago the last one had been.
But manohman, that hurt. There was a news story about a kid with a pitchfork through his foot a couple of days ago. I cannot imagine how much pain he must have been in, because one tiny toothpick hurt like hell.

Uh… “pain breaks the shell of understanding”. Perhaps Kahlil Gibran thought this one up during a similiar episode.
