What is an achilles elbow? The famous injury in the trojan war was a tendon down in a leg ort foot, not the elbow.

As deomidaemon says below, Ahcilles' elbow is the counterpart of the Achilles' heel. So instead of being super sensitive, the skin has no nerve endings.

Some of our prompts are occasionally a bit mangled sayings or something like that. They are also quite often open for interpretation. If you want you could for example use this prompt in someone accidentally saying Achilles' elbow even if they mean Achilles' heel. This is of course just an example.

I was in a hurry when I posted the prompt so I didn't have time to google any explanations. My apologies for that.

I know I shouldn't ruin people's research, but the Achilles Elbow is the counterpart of the Achilles Heel, so instead of being a super sensitive spot like the heel, the skin of the elbow has no nerve endings.

Ruin away! You just saved me a trip to Wikipedia, and we all know how that thing sucks time up into a vortex. No nerve endings, hmmm? Wonder if Angelus is aware of that...

Thank you for providing the explanation. Was in a hurry when I posted the prompt so I didn't have time to go looking for any explanations. I just picked the prompt the generator gave me. :D

Is this prompt #251? I thought it was #245?

[tamingmods.livejournal.com]

You are absolutely right. Don't know what I was thinking when I posted this. Sorry. It''s now corrected. Thanks for pointing that out.
