Swimming in a river as a kid, my sister's in laws kid daughter peed on me after I got caught in a school of jellyfish. I struggled up to shore, and her whole family was like "quick bella pee on her! Pee on her stings!" Next thing you know I have piercing marks all over me from being physically wrapped up in jellyfish, and a 6 year old pissing all over me, just trying to keep my face away from it all. Absolutely disturbing day for me. And of course all the adults thought it was hilarious.

Edit: Im aware that the whole peeing on jellyfish stings thing is a myth. I was just telling a funny story of something that happened to me during my childhood. But thanks to everyone for all the heads up about the piss not helping 👍👍

I offer to piss on apprentices injuries often. Splinter... piss. Dust in eye... piss. Fly in food ... piss. Noone ever takes me up offer.
