Poison Ivy

I live in England, we don't get poison ivy, just stinging nettles.

I loathe Poison Ivy. Fortunately, I have avoided the cursed plant for many, many years.

No, I've never had it or heard about anybody who has had it at some point... I guess it doesn't grow here in Denmark.

Of course everyone has had it remember when we were children and we went to far in the backyard or school playground and rubbed up against the bushes when you know you're weren't supposed to be over there?

ive never had it or seen it.

I had it when I was too young to remember. I used to live by this huge patch of it when I was young, and I didn't know it was Poison Ivy. When I was ten, I took a match and lit the patch on fire. I felt like I was going to die from breathing in the Ivy (and Oak) fumes.

Also, Poison Ivy is contagious if you deliberately rub up against someone with an open, infected sore.

Did anybody else think of the girl from Batman before the plant?
