Don't pee on jellyfish stings by the way. It's unsanitary and doesn't help.

No need to pee on your friend. You just need warm water. Soak for 20-45 minutes.

Jokes on you. I brought them to swim in jellyfish infested waters precisely to create this opportunity.

I wouldn't willingly go swim with jellyfish for whatever reason. Got sting as a teenager and the burn marks stayed printed onto my skin for well over a year.

As someone living in Queensland Australia. it's not a matter of avoiding being stung, instead you simply hope it isn't the bad one this time.

I'm still convinced that myth started with someone getting caught giving their partner a golden shower.
