Ever been stung.....

I got stung once when bowling in cricket. Just as my arm was coming over, I felt a thump into my knuckle.... iirc it was sort of sharp turning to dull, annoying.
 
Vague memories of being stung as a child. Kind of remember it feeling something like burning.

My gran's allergic to wasps though. Apparrently she does a balloon impression so we tend to try to keep them away from her.
 
Stung once by a bee when I wondered what my cat was pawing at in the grass. It hurt a lot less than I thought it would, just like a pin ***** and then immense throbbing and a bit of swelling.
 
Only once in my 34 years

On the wrist by a wasp when i was 17. It was hiding in a ladder that i was carrying. Hurt like hell for a second, then felt sore, dull pain for a few hours after. Rather not get stung again thanks
 
Had a wasp fly down the neck of my shirt once in school and went to town on my neck and shoulders which really hurt for a few days, was stung around 6-7 times in the space of a minute or so :(

A few other times was stung as a kid but just shook it off really as i was an active kid and always hurting myself in one way or another :P

Cant say i've been stunk in the last 8-10 years though so i've forgotten the pain of it mostly and i tend to take care of wasps before giving them a chance to get me now.

My wife on the other hand has never been stung in her life and is absolutly terrified of the idea (but then again she's not fond of anything small or that buzzes around her except for bee's lol)
 
Yup plenty of times. Lots as a kid stamping on apples to kill the wasps inside... recently when a neighbour called me over to look at their wild bee nest... Got a bit too close and the wasps inside swarmed and stung me half a dozen times before I got them all off.
 
I've only ever been stung once when I was younger! Got stung on my inner Thigh, stung like a female dog :mad:

Pro-Tip: Keeping still just makes it easier for the bee/wasp to sting you!

I can beat any and all of you with a story that will make you shiver!

To start with I have been stung quite a few times. Feet, legs, arms by wasps and once on the neck by a bee. My self and wasps have always had a mutual understanding of "I dont like you, you dont like me" proportions however my not like of bees turned to pure hatred (not fear I may add) one summers morning 8 years ago.......***enter dream like sequence***

It was 7am, after a long hot night sleeping in my boxers. My phone alarm had woken me so I sat up, switched off the alarm and checked the texts. "0" Mr no mates I say to myself. Having a sip of water moved over to the edge of the bed to stretch my legs.


BANG!!! Immense pain in my man sack! I stood up thinking a spring had gone in the bed and shot into my privates. Alas no metal was protuding from the bed sheet, but there crawling around on the floor was a wasp. No idea for it had gotten in there but a wasp had been in my pants and stung me in the most personal of personals. I dropped the nearest thing to hand - the glass of water! Luckily this heavy object crushed the wasp into oblivion. I cheer in happiness.

Then the real pain started, a full on thrumming ache that spread all over my crotch (or at least felt like it). I couldnt stand up or move so I called my rents for some sting cream and smothered my "area" in it. Took 2 hours before I could move again....

***End dream sequence***

I had to call in some emergency leiu time for that morning and had to explain to the boss why. That was the most painful/embarassing thing ever, hence my absolute hatred of wasps! And that they must die at every opportunity.
 
Got stung on the neck (adams apple area) by a bee when I was on a school trip, had a reaction and ended up not being able to breathe - teacher ran and grabbed a cold can of coke which brought down swelling enough for me to breathe.

If that wasn't horrible enough the kids on the coach were pointing at my neck telling me I had a big hole left from the bee sting............. also I hate coke.
 
Not been stung in about 10 years. Last time was when I trod on a bee and it stung me between my toes.

It hurts a fair bit. It's a different sort of pain though, rather than just a bruise or a piercey stab type injury. It kinda burns, which makes sense given they stick you with poison.
 
been stung once in 25 years, it hurts but its not agony it just doesn't go away for a while tho.

the one time i did get stung i was driving with my brother, it flew in throug the window and stung me on the back of my arm just below were a t shirt stops and it stuck in there :(

had to try to flick it out f my arm through the window but the position it as made it very difficult and took a few minutes.
 
Years ago my relatives from Australia visited with my cousin Chris. Anyway, we went out and found a wasps nest in another cousins back garden, in an old paint tin. So, being children we did the only sensible thing and started lobbing rocks at it. Suffice to say the paint tin got hit perfectly and fell from it's perch. Next thing WASPS EVERYWHERE! My mum laughs about it as they heard screaming and suddenly three kids coming tearing up the garden screaming, ripping clothes off, swatting like mad, chased by a huge swarm of ****ed off wasps.

Also, I thought wasps only built hives. But apparently they also build nests in river banks which I discovered after jumping on one while building a fort with my brother. That was a case of the slowest one dies and I legged it leaving my brother long behind. He arrived back at the house about 15 minutes after me with tears streaming down his face and a few stings. Sucker.
 
We found this branch to pull that a hive was on to hear all the buzzing one day as kids.

After pulling it about 5 times we went to get some more kids to show it to. The 6th time they shot out of there like they were prepared and one stung me right (on the eyelashes) under my eye. I could see it ON my eye when it was there :( It didn't actually hurt that much even if it got really swollen for ages.

Lesson learnt, never play with wasps.
