This reminds me. I need to put down "never buy legos" on my "when I eventually become a dad" list. Not just because I would eventually be stepping on them, but because I'd sooner find myself playing with them.
I have a crazy friend who just told me that as a kid she was obsessed with stripping down to her underwear and sitting in, then sinking down all the way to the bottom of her brother's lego bin. Because it hurt SO bad.
OUCH.... the comment by A Lady Reveals Nothing.....reminded me of when I was a young girl, and my uncle, then only 8 years older then me, had a GREAT Marble collection !!! I'd lay down and stick my legs up...then he'd pour marbles down my pant legs. I can't imagine now why I thought that was so fun??????
OUCH!, Double OUCH! when you stand on 'em with your barefeet :-).
ReplyDeleteTotally agree.
ReplyDeleteThe pain. The horror. How can something so fun be so painful?
ReplyDeleteOR marbles (do kids still play with marbles?)
ReplyDeleteI need to find someone to say this to today.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to experience serious pain, try accidently kneeling on one.
ReplyDeleteThat's why you should always wear steel-toed work boots in the house.

ReplyDeletesay no more!
ReplyDeleteI never had Legos, but I assume GI Joe arms are similarly the devil.
ReplyDeleteIt only really got bad when they started producing some legos that matched the color of the floor. Subversive.
