Good thing that one and my second toe are webbed.....the good toe acted as a splint of sorts I guess....had no problem walking.

I've said (seriously) for a long time that if you really hurt yourself, only swearing really cuts the mustard.

If you stand on an upturned plug barefooted, muttering "aw shoot" is not going to help.

Yelling "you fucking, fucking, bastard WANKER! Fucking bollocks, fuck, twat", funnily enough, helps.

I see you didn't throw in Toasted Dolphin's "word-that-must-never-be-uttered"....or "The Love Throat."

Exactly.

Which word am I to avoid?

Cunt... you can say it, just don't call anyone that

[Egg]

Just don't call any of the women cunts. You can call me one, I don't mind.
