For me, I think it was when I was playing in the yard, and saw one of my mom’s pots of dirt for her garden, and I thought “yeah this would be good to dump on my lap”

It was full of fire ants. Big, angry, north carolinian fire ants.

I was covered in red welts and all I remember is screaming at the top of my lungs while my mom sprayed me down with a hose

    did you also break your jaw, and lose almost 25lbs over 3.5 weeks?

    that was a fun may 2025… wear full-face helmets y’all. they’d save you so much pain and suffering from not being able to eat.

      Nope. Other than a concussion and some face damage nothing came of it. The driver was a teenager just learning how to drive.
