    I've had bee/wasp stings a couple of times, but the worst was when I fell in a stingy nettle bush and got 15 stings on one hand. It, er, stung.

    Ugh... I was fishing once.
    walked through a patch of that then dropped something.

    By the time I got up from picking it up, I felt the stinging in my legs and realised what I was standing knee deep in...

    My legs and arms burned for hours.

    I've never been stung by one, even though, disgustingly, I've had a wasp fly into my mouth before.
    I just spat it out real quick, and ran into my bathroom to get the mouthwash.
    But nope, never been stung!

    I've been stung by a wasp, but not a bee.

    I was crying on the floor for half an hour>.<; It was recently after I fell on a barbed wire fence around third grade, and the sting was right above where the barbed wire had got meX.x;;;

    Hopefully never again.

    I was stung by a wasp once. It was a little funny, it looked like the wasp was backing up and accidentally ran into my ankle and stung me. It looked all disoriented after it had stung me and flew away really fast. Also I was stung by a bee when I was nine. I was in the passenger's seat with the window down while going down a highway and a bee just flew into the window and stung my cheek. Not pleasant.

    I was playing lawn darts when I was little. I ran over to pick up a dart and there was a bee in the grass by the dart and it stung my hand as I grabbed the dart.

    My grandmother put baking soda on it. O_o;;

    Edit: Oh yeah! One time during a soccer game I was running and a bee flew into my mouth as I shouted something. It stung me in the back of the throat. I stopped and was hacking until both the bee and the stinger flew out. It sucked.

    Only once, and I'll share the story because it was amusing and happened in front of ShlupQuack (Mandee).

    We were playing Super Crouquet at her house and I knocked the ball into the fence down the hill of slippery ice plant. I took the path down and got it, and as I bent down I laid my hand on the fence... right next to a wasps nest. It erupted on me and I was screaming and trying to claw up the ice plant but I kept slipping and yelling for Mandee to help me, but she couldnt so she laughed.

    Somehow I only got stung once, but... well this is why ShlupQuack and TheAbominatrix are best friends forever. xD

    I was once stung by a bee while waiting at Inspection for band. Stupid band.

    The only time I recall being stung was when I was 5 years old. I was petting a bee because it was fuzzy. Then it stung me. It hurt, I cried. I told my caregiver about it and she said there was nothing wrong...except for a lump the size of a big toe on my thumb. Stupid caregiver.

    A few times. Not often, though, because when I see one I run in the opposite direction like the hounds of Hell were on my heels. Last time was when I ran over a wasp's nest with the lawnmower. They were not amused.

    The last time I was stung was the first day of my sophomore year in high school. Before that, I was six. I can only remember a few times I've been stung, though.

    Signature by rubah. I think.
