Hope you didn't get burned and only a handful of glibber
What?
I think that he's referring to the fact that you can get nasty stings from a jellyfish and he hopes that OP grabbed the top part of the jellyfish that doesn't sting you as opposed to the tentacle things that do.
But if it had been a bag where did you intend to put it? You were really gonna stroll with it looking for a bin? Wow you're really intense OP
Some blondes die their hair black like u . Even if u died ur hair black you will still have the intelligence of s blonde and by your comment is what u showed up
Your code breakers came true 31. 33's saying "didn't get burned"-didn't get stung; "handle full of glibber"-the gooey top part of the jellyfish. Sorry for the downvote number 1.
That is what happens when you answer on an FML while still super sleepy. I hope OP didn't touch the stinging part of the jellyfish, instead I hope it was only the top glibbery jelly part. That way no burns but only a handful of nasty glibber.
That always makes me think of the show friends
I was about to comment about Friends but the 2 people above me beat me to it
As long as it makes him comfortable
Not on the jelly fish OP.
Who voted 36 down? She's completely right and tbh, I'm surprised people are still saying to pee on it in this day and age...I like Friends as much as the next guy but it's pretty well known to be a myth. Some say vinegar helps, others say no...your best bet is just to rinse with more sea water. And apparently shaving foam and ice packs can help but they should probably be put on after the initial shock and treatment. But yeah, definitely don't pee on it or rinse with fresh water, you'll just make it worse.
I've heard people say this all my life and nobody ever told me it's just a myth. Good to know!
I like your though process. But how on earth could you mistake a carrier bag for a jellyfish? I mean I don't see like tesco branded jellyfish anywhere ahaha.
There is a jellyfish called the Portuguese man o' war that is commonly mistaken for a plastic bag
Having seen a Portugese Man O' War, I can confirm that they do look like shopping bags. Their sting is also particularly nasty, and potentially fatal if stung more than once (even if you are stung a second time years later) so i seriously hope it wasn't one of those.
I almost did the same thing today myself, the jellyfish was bright blue. Luckily it was on shore, so I noticed it was a jellyfish before touching it
#34, I picked one of those up in Bermuda. So bad... so bad. I now cringe and retreat into myself if I even come across a just a picture of them...
Poor sea turtles.
I'm sure the jellyfish wasn't harmed, but I am almost certain that OP bagged a sting or two.
Would you really need mouth to mouth for a jellyfish sting?
Nice one
At least your intentions were good OP. Good on you!
Well OP, that's happened to me before. Now find a buddy that's willing to pee on your hand.
what he can't pee on it himself?
You're not supposed to do that, it's a myth. You're actually supposed to put more salt water on the sting.
I thought you were only supposed pee on it if it's a sea urchin.?
bet you wish you had a jelly fishing net
good job for trying. did it sting you?
