FYI Got stung by a bee this morning.

[Wessels]

I've been stung once in my life on accident. A bee was resting on the back of the seat of the bus and I leaned back. My friend noticed it just a second too late. That was like 25 years ago too.

In elementary school I caught them with my bare hands and threw them at other kids for lulz

Just out of curiosity, is there any other way to get stung?

I just meant the bee wasn't even trying to be aggressive. If I hadn't moved back it wouldn't have stung me vs the bee just came out and stung me as I sat there.

There was a kid in high school who was allergic to bees (to the point the squad came) and something about his body attracted bees and they stung him at least a few times a year. I felt so bad for that guy.

That's cool! I used to try to catch them myself, though usually on a book or plate.

I wonder who will get this reference.

I know it's a CAH card but don't get the joke/reference beyond that.

Heard a story on NPR this weekend about a guy that decided to take "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger" literally. He collects poisonous snakes and has them bite him.
He has gotten to the point where he can take four or five bites from rattlers and mambas within a day or so and survive.

I guess he'd want to do it on purpose?

I put my slippers on the other day and kept feeling a sharp pain in my left big toe. After a time I took the slipper off and found a bee had been stinging me repeatedly. My upper lip never lost it's stiffness for even a second. You Americans do make a fuss over nothing.

A bee can only sting you once.

I remember catching them in our front yard in the purple flowers bushes we had on Misty Ridge.

Not always true. Honey bees have barbed stings but bumblebees and many solitary types of bee have smooth stings that don't remain in the victim's skin. This was a bumblebee.

 

[thintoast]

Mine was a honeybee. Not sure if regular or africanized, as there was only one

I was stung on my tongue once.

That is all

My little sister once made the brilliant decision (probably around 8 or so) to put a hermit crab in her mouth and it pinched her tongue.
