The most painful thing in the world.

[Dalek Dave]

I once sat naked on a 74HC04 (a hex inverter for those unaware), it didn't hurt, but it did stick to my arse, and I was walking around for five minutes before finally understanding why my wife was wetting herself with laughter. It only hurt when I removed it!

I'm sure the dual rounded pins of a European plug are less painful.

Yeah they don't hurt much, and most of them (if not all) are build so that it is very difficult to have the pins standing up, so the worst you get is you step on a blunt object.

Why does it amuse women so much when men get hurt?

[Gretna]

Yeah agreed and its always the smallest brick as well. :)

I'll second that - ouch! X|

Hehe, very funny. How could you possibly not feel it? The pins are like 6 or 7 millimeters long!

They have a well developed sense of schadenfraude! :)

I don't get that. I've had one before (it ended up in root canal) and it was completely painless... I had a lump appear in the gum which disappeared in a week. Although it did take 4 different dentists to pick which tooth to work on... My mother once had one on 4 teeth once and had no idea about it either... On the other hand, braces on your teeth are excruciating when they're first put on. I tried a number of painkillers and not one of them made a difference. Even drinking felt painful. Trying to play a piccolo with braces on your front teeth is a whole different experience though!

Children probably don't play with them any more, but stepping on jacks [^]in the middle if the night isn't much fun either.

Treading barefoot on an upturned plug beats them all....

Wrong, wrong, wrong. You utter pansy. Stepping on a pile of spilled LEGO's hurts a hell of a lot worse.
