I needed to carry around a bunch of tacks today and I didn't have anything to carry them in so I put them in my pocket. everytime I reach into grab one I poke myself.
Just be glad you're only poking your fingers with the tacks.tribdog said:I even poked myself trying to get them out of my pocket so I wouldn't poke myself anymore. Right under the fingernail too.

The cause of repeated "ouch, damn" is likely due to physical pain or discomfort. It could also be a verbal expression of frustration or annoyance.
The brain perceives "ouch" as a signal of physical pain and "damn" as a verbal expression of frustration. These words activate different areas of the brain associated with pain and language processing.
Repeatedly saying "ouch, damn" may cause temporary strain on the vocal cords and surrounding muscles. However, it is not likely to cause any long-term physical effects.
We may involuntarily say "ouch, damn" as an automatic response to physical pain or frustration. This is a reflexive behavior that does not require conscious thought.
There is no scientific explanation for why saying "ouch, damn" may feel satisfying. It could be a personal preference or a learned behavior. More research is needed in this area.
