Stubbed my toe on the couch, it's the same one I maybe broke last year. Sigh. Also, ow.

Ouch!

I visited a family member at a new house recently, and it came with these special toe-stubbing boards in the kitchen. The walls between cupboards don't go inwards at the bottom where the little in bit is, and instead go straight down to the floor, creating a little stuck out board thing. It's hard to explain, so here's a photo I searched up online. I couldn't find one exactly the same, but see in this photo on the left it has the board extend over the in part by the floor, where on the right the in part is cut out of the edge as well?

Now imagine that board thing on both ends, but also at seemingly random places along the bench as well! So you can be at the sink, then you step over to the dishwasher and BAM, your toe smashes into the demon-board.
