No matter how many times I scroll back and forth trying to compare the two pictures, they look the same, except the hand in the first picture might be swelled up a little bit? (And ones a right hand, and one is a left hand :icon_rofl:)

:dunno:

I got hit by a tiny bee at work on friday. It landed on my side and I put my arm down and pissed it off.

I was surprised that it didn't swell up worse than it did since usually smaller means nastier venom. It just got red and bruised. It's kinda lost in all my paintball marks now.

If you're not making mistakes, you're not learning.
dang, they got your hand pretty good.

Most I've ever gotten was a dime sized lump, and not even a nasty looking one, it's like a big mosquito bite. I've been stung bunches of times.

Friggen things are the bane of existance. At least when they nest where I'm working.

A couple days ago I was being an ass and bragging that I've never been stung on the job.


Go figure an hour later out of no where I'm checking around a house for termites and a yellow jacket flies up out of nowhere, lands on my face and stings my cheek.

I was pumping the water out of my pool the beginning of the summer and was looking for something to set my pump on to stop the vibrations. Saw a towel laying in the pool house so went and grabbed it. I probably walked about 10 feet with it in my hands before I realized it was crawling with bumble bees. Apparently they had made some kind of hive on it and I didn't even notice. I got stung a good 20 times before I finally made it inside my house, even then a few of em made it in with me. Woulda jumped in the pool, but of course I had drained most of the water out already.

Luckily I'm not allergic at all and pretty much just had a bunch of little welts all over my body. The girlfriend and her sister found the whole situation amusing, I did not. I couldn't even walk outside for the next few hours because the bees were still lookin for me. Didn't bother the girls once even though one was like 4 feet away from me when I dropped the towel.

Pop as much Benadryl as the bottle tells you that you can take for a couple days or go the doctor for a Benadryl shot. Works for me.
