Damn bees...

Just got stung while mowing the lawn. Probably a yellowjacket or something. Probably ran over its nest. Thats gotta be the first time ive been stung since i was 6. Doesnt hurt as bad as i remember... Lucky i only got stung once, since i didnt have a shirt on.

Getting stung sucks.  I've been stung twice by wasps both times on my right ear, and like 8 years apart.  Kinda weird.

Mmm, well I can tell you from personal experience that yellow jackets (which do suck) aren't as bad as Jellyfish stings. Man...I couldn't look at the ocean the same for months after that happened.

I hate bees

I got stung once by a wasp. Didn't hurt that much. That was years ago, never got stung again.

Yellowjackets are wasps. Either way, those fuckers send me running! Similar story to ArchScabby, as a kid a bee flew in my ear, stung me and died. So now anything buzzing makes me nervous.

If you ran over it's nest you probably would've got stung more than once, it was probably just lost and drunk, are there any fruit trees in your garden, or any rotten fruit nearby? We have an apple tree in the back garden and every damned year if we dont pick them up off the ground every morning they begin to rot and the wasps get drunk, it's horrible. They sting you for no reason when drunk, normally they'll check you out and leave unless you have food on you, or you freak out.

Hey, just remember that when bees sting you, they die from the stinger ripping their guts out of their body.  Therefore...you get your payback without even knowing it!  BWAHAHAHA!!!

It's not the sting that bothers me, it's the inflammation/itching/rash that I get for a week after a sting.

Maybe i should consider myself lucky. I ran over another nest (the first one was just a tiny hole in the ground with a bunch of angry bees when i checked it out) and between the two i only got stung once. Thats a pretty good ratio I think .

When you get stung by a bee it leaves a scent on you that only other bee's can sense and makes them attracted to you. I heard it can last for a few weeks so stay away from bees till then.

Hornets are even worse. Trust me

I fucking hate wasps. They creep the shit out of me.

Oh what a glorious thing to be,
A healthy grown up busy busy bee,
Whiling away
The passing hours
Pinching all the pollen
From the cauliflow'rs.
I'd like to be a busy little bee,
Being just as busy as a bee can be,
Flying round the garden
Brightest ever seen,
Taking back the honey
To the dear old queen.

Bz bz bz bz, honey bee, honey bee,
Bz if you like but don't sting me.
Bz bz bz bz, honey bee, honey bee,
Bz if you like but don't sting me.

Oh what a glorious thing to be,
A healthy grown up busy busy bee,
Toying with the tulips,
Tasting ev'ry type,
Building up the honeycomb
That looks like tripe.
I'd like to be a busy little bee,
Being just as busy as a bee can be,
Flying all around
In the wild hedgerows,
Stinging all the cows
Upon the parson's nose.

Bz bz bz bz, honey bee, honey bee,
Bz if you like but don't sting me.
Bz bz bz bz, honey bee, honey bee,
Bz if you like but don't sting me.

Oh what a glorious thing to be,
A healthy grown up busy busy bee,
Visiting the picnics,
Quite a little tease,
Raising little lumps
Upon the maidens' knees.
I'd like to be a busy little bee
Being just as busy as a bee can be,
Flirting with the butterfly
Strong upon the wing.
Whoopee! O death
Where is thy sting?

Bz bz bz bz, honey bee, honey bee,
Bz if you like but don't sting me.
Bz bz bz bz, honey bee, honey bee,
Bz if you like but don't sting me.

Oh what a glorious thing to be,
A healthy grown up busy busy bee,
To be a good bee
One must contrive,
For bees in a beehive
Must behive.
But maybe I wouldn't be a bee,
Bees are all right when alive, you see,
But when bees die
You really should see 'em,
Pinned on a card
In a dirty museum.

Bz bz bz bz, honey bee, honey bee,
Bz if you like but don't sting me.
Bz bz bz bz, honey bee, honey bee,
Bz if you like but don't sting me.

Yeah, fucking sock those bees in right in their face! Bwuahahaha, bastards! >=]

" @MattyFTM: Thats a hell of a poem. Did you write that? "

I'm allergic to bees, and I try to avoid them at all costs.

Why would you punch bees in the face? Without bees, you'll never see any great flower tits.

I have never been stung. Yeah for ninja reflexes!

I got attacked by bees when I was 13. I was dragging some branches to a spot for my dad, when I accedantly ran over a yellow jackets nest. There were a bunch of them from what I remember, and some hornets also joined into that madness I had caused. I didn't go outside for MONTHS after that day, I was to terrified to even go outside and get the mail. I have never been on friendly terms with them since then, and I still flinch almost everytime I see a flying insect zoom by me almost 11 years later.

I have only been stung by a bee once and it didnt hurt that much. A mud wasp on the other hand got me pretty good once. I still have a slight scar on my arm were I got stung by one 15 years ago so you can imagine would it would have looked like at the time, pretty nasty.

"When you get stung by a bee it leaves a scent on you that only other bee's can sense and makes them attracted to you. I heard it can last for a few weeks so stay away from bees till then. 

Then again, my source was from a bee horror movie that was inspired by a true story, so I'd take it with a grain of salt.

 In my experience, if you dont do anything to them, they wont do anything to you.

Yep. I was stung 4 times on my way out to get the mail the other day by some yellow jackets.

Damn things.

Not sure if this is true. Could be though I guess.I do know that killer bees secrete a pheromone when they die, which other killer bees from the same nest can smell, they then swarm the area en masse.Ants do a similar thing, if you squish an ant, it sends out a smell which other ants keep away from by a short distance because they don't want to die.

Crap, i cant even imagine dude. Ive heard some really bad horror stories about jellyfish stings "

Yellow Jackets aren't that painful though. The problem is, they get pissed off pretty easily and swarm more.

My dog keeps trying to eat wasps/beets etc, he comes in from the garden looking like he's just been punched in the mouth.

I've only been stung once in the back of one of my calves.  It hurt probably more from the shock of being stung than anything, but I'd rather not get stung again.

BEES =/= WASPS

"@cc23574:  UTG is an airsoft brand if I'm not mistaken, pretty sure that's the same airsoft gun my friend has ;p"

According to Cracked.com, Japanese hornets spit out an acid like spray onto it's targets to attract every other bee in their hive to come.  It also burns flesh.
This is what they look like:
