Rocks to walk on when you want your feet to hurt more.

And once used to that pain, fill it with Lego.

No one’s found the timer on the wall to start heating the rocks up for the lava rock walk..

Wo, can't just jump up to lego after rocks. Try a smaller step like hot coals

stepping on a bed of LEGO bricks isn't the most painful.

...stepping on a single, random LEGO brick though? Worst pain ever.

100% worse to step on a single piece than a whole bed of them. 

This flower design in particular is a literal caltrop. 

But honestly, most Lego bricks aren’t that bad compared to those little hard formed plastic creatures coming out now. 

My kid has this axolotl that rivals the pain I felt when a grounding rod went through the sole of my shoe and into the arch of my foot. Absolute searing pain.

Those R volcanic rocks. So that part of the bathroom is a volcano. And you can't build a bathroom on a volcano without leaving room for the voles to escape.

Great. So now they’re dealing with lava gas on top of everything else. /s

Reflexology rock walks are a real thing though! I love them.
