Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Happy birthday, Suzi!
my first foray up to my roof ended up with my first bee/wasp sting. I was right off both.
Wow. I can't believe making it to adulthood without being stung.
My fear is more of steep grades than heights. Impractical, because grades I can climb still creep me out.

Mmmmmmm, intense foaminess!
Never been stung.
I've been stung a couple of times. Mom was allergic to bee stings, so the first time I wondered if I was gong to die. The next time I just hated on yellow jackets a little bit more.

I've only been stung once, by a bee.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure I've been stung once by a bee and that's it. It put me right off bees, though, I tell you what! I had this notion that they won't sting you if you don't bother them (probably mostly true), but the way I implemented that was by completely freezing any time I saw a bee, until it flew away. I still have to remind myself that I don't actually have to do that.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I did the completely freezing thing, too. I was stung by a bee at age five when one accidentally got caught in my sweater and I panicked.
I do not do grates, either. I can barely walk across a bridge with a grate. Solid, please.

I have been stung twice by wasps. Once it was between my body and my arm, and when I put my arm down, it stung me. The other time, I was sitting in a field of clover that was being swarmed and got stung. It wasn't a big deal either time, and I am not bothered by bees/wasps at all. I usually just ignore them until they go away.

I don't really do nature, much. The one time I was stung was by a sweat bee, at a funeral once. ...now I can't remember WHOSE funeral. I feel like it might've been my grandfather's, except I also feel like I was older (13?), so maybe it was a great aunt or uncle's...there were a number of those, at one point (both my grandmother and grandfather had like, six brothers and sisters, who were married, and they all started dying off around the same time...)
