The following Dodgers have been smited by the JDK for their crimes against Jam:
All the girls! for picking on the JDK and damaging his already delicate self esteem!
The Basserd Who Nicked Copper's Stuff For the offense of nicking Copper's stuff. You are a tw*t, whoever you are and we all hope you get run over by a tram in Nottingham. Or Liverpool. Or whereever else they have trams!
Copper For the crime of playing with her Wii instead of her Jammie pals!
one time one flew up the baggy jogging trouser things i was wearing and managed to sting me five times while i did a little hoppity skippity dance (in the middle of the tourist office) slapping the approximate area where the little bugger was buzzing around
I have been stung too and they do suck. But apparantly (in their defence) it turns out that they do alot for the garden in killing pests etc. I dont know exactly, because I am not my Dad, but they are vital to the eco system.
In the meantime I am sure the JDK will remember how violently I killed one the other day in the Gym... DIE DIE DIE!!!!

yes yes they are one time one flew up the baggy jogging trouser things i was wearing and managed to sting me five times while i did a little hoppity skippity dance (in the middle of the tourist office) slapping the approximate area where the little bugger was buzzing around it hurt
I hate those things. Any kind of bee, wasp, yellow jacket, etc comes within 10 feet of me and I run away screaming like a little girl.
I have been highly traumatized as, when I was about 4, I sat on a wasp/bee/whatever. It was not the most pleasant of experiences and definitely not one I wish to repeat.
Good for gardens or not, I say we just whip out a can of raid and exterminate the lot of 'em!
How about one slipping into your can of coke while you're not looking and you taking a huge swig and it buzzing around in your mouth before stinging you?

I just cried.
I've made it these 26 years without getting stung by ANYTHING.. but as my mother and both grandmothers and one brother are highly allergic (they carry around the epi-pens in the summer time just in case) its not an experience I'm looking forward to having.
I have a vague memory of being stung in the forehead as a child. The memory places me in the kitchen/diner in our house in Melksham so I must have been 5 or 6, I think...

i think you should but only because you snort, that will provide additional amusement for those around you and thus you are 'passing it on'

Ugh thanks. I just got a flashback to a time I was in camp (a "counselor in training". how cool was I? ) and there was this can of apple juice on the table. I started drinking out of it and felt a the fuzziness of a bee on my lip, promptly spit out the juice and screamed.
The bee was dead, so your son definately beat me on this one. But I still understand his pain and sympathize with him on this one.
Man I hate when repressed memories decide to surface. They're never good repressed memories.

Did you laugh? (just a little?)
Sorry that was mean...
