Devil's Club thorns - they keep on giving -- Good one, a prime example of an Inflammatory Prick that needs to come out backwards.

I recall an Inflammatory Prick from a sliver off of a threaded stainless steel pipe nipple. That Inflammatory Prick also had to be extracted backwards.

My wife the nurse came home talkin' about one she saw that looked like a dog had bit it.
It was more "inflamed" than "inflammatory",... but I suppose it could pass it along of both parties were brave enough.

Devil's Club. Wait about 3 days and you can pop 'em right out along with the pus.

Splinter from green treated lumber. Skin deep is no problem but one under the skin brings much dismay and discomfort.
Had a steel splinter in my eye once. That was no fun. A whole lot of no fun!
And for all you smartasses, no, I coulnd't see it...

I got stuck in the eyes with a broom when I was a kid. Had to wear these Stevie Wonder glasses for a week or so. Another vote for devils club, and sliding down a hill into a bunch of prickly pear can suck too....

Canadian and Russian thistle around here. Also sneaky, low growing prickly pear. I usually find them kneeling down. The little stinkers hide in the grass.
