Thank god it wasn't smallcox.

I kicked the shit out of this wooden box. We called the match a draw(er)

Ow ow ow ... !!! One broken baby toe coming right up.

But if it's a choice between tolio and smallcox ...

That'll teach that damn box !!!!! ;)

(Not surprisingly,) that is a very nice photo of your foot. Excellent lighting and color. The pale green background really brings out the purple of the toe.

Jeepers, mate, you sure that's not stage one Black Death? I'd have that taken off, if I were you. No time to get to a proper doc, either. Just prop the ol' fella up on the chopping block, so...

Good thing you have a spare, eh? ;)

Was ist das Tolio?
Eine Prellung?

(yeah I looked up bruise, but I do speak rudimentary German to Diz sometimes, especially when he exhibits signs of being oblivious to English)

TIL "tolio" is Lithuanian for "roofing felt".

As in "How would Madam like her roofing felt?"

Where's Z when you need him ?
There's got to be a play here on "asphalt"

OK, if no one else will do it, I will said the Little Red Hen...

... with long, smooth, gentle strokes... but stay away from her asphalt.

Very tastefully done, Lamp.

Dude, you're doin' it wrong. I bet that hurt like hell. Stop kicking the shit outta wooden boxes.

...and this little piggy went "Ow, fucking ow, OW!!!!" all the way home.

Actually, that little piggy might have said "Jesus fucking Christ" in front of my kids. Or god dammit at the very least.

@zen, I was told it would just fall off by itself after a few days.

Sundae, Tolio is part of a joke about a woman who picks up a guy and when they begin undressing he removes his socks to reveal mangled toes and claims he had Tolio as a kid, then he drops his trousers to reveal terribly scarred knees and he says he had a bad case of kneasles as a kid. When he drops his underwear the woman looks at him and says "Let me guess, you also had smallcox."

The CF bulb makes the white wall look green, enhancing the ghoulishness of the bruise.

Here's tonight's view

You could see the bruising at the base of your other toes in the first photo, but it really shows now. That little piggy looks worth a few swear words.

What's a CF bulb? Nonprofessional photog minds want to know.

Protip:

First aid for a broken toe? Don't do it again.
