This is what a carpet gripper looks like http://img.alibaba.com/photo/1148241...et_Gripper.jpg basically they are under all your carpets to grip them down eheh.

ew, i cringed when i read that. anything to do withs toes, and cutting and lots of blood grosses me out. i'm fine if its like someone having their head chopped off, just toes..

Ive stood on one before if that counts o_O

lmao same.

Eugh, I cringed too, that's disgusting. My friend had a house party a few years ago and it was hardly decorated, there was carpet grippers everywhere and everyone went home with holes in their feet. I, being the perfect being I am, didn't step on one once.

Well we were getting a new carpet down last week, and I kept standing on them in the morning. :(

It was always jaggy and sore, but only ever peirced my skin once... Rofl I always forgot they were there so just went pure trampling down the stairs haha. :p

I wear slippers all time so no. Slippers FTW. And sorry to hear bout tht hope ur foot gets betta soon (h)

Ive stoof on a nail before in out garage at night eww... i blacked out because of the blood and next thing i knew was casualty (Y)

Its just
we have had no carpet for 3/4 weeks on the stairs
and i have never ONCE stood on them
just today!

i couldnt get over how much blood there was =o

yeah, i normally stand on them alot

ewwww. that's not nice. I hate them things :@

Yeah, I stood on one, didn't realise and went to pull my foot back because I thought it was like a pin or something - Then I realised the bottom of my foot was hooked to it, and I ripped it to like 3 inches and it was bleeding loads for ages.. I didn't know my body had that much blood, lmao.
