When foot fights marble threshold, marble wins handily.
Yesterday morning I was in a hurry to get the house straightened up so I could paint. I stood in the doorway of the bathroom, tossing things in the trash bin, putting stuff into drawers. Turning to exit, I whacked my toes head-on into the marble threshold (all the other thresholds in the house are wood/gesso, but not this one!). Fortunately, nothing was broken, it only felt like it was, and the nice emergency-room staff were polite enough not to laugh in my face.
