i hate when you get these and all of your toes tense up in a bent position and they will. not. move.
it is excruciating. one of the few times where i will deliberately bite down on my comforter or a towel so that i'm not yelling too loud and disturb anyone.
two years pass...
i woke up last night from one of these
it was the most painful thing i've ever experienced
i was writhing and screaming while my girlfriend looked on in horror
and then, it went away
wtf
