    "Tender-handed stroke a nettle, And it stings you, for your pains: Grasp it like a man of mettle, And it soft as silk remains."

    My 'ol ma told me that.


    Doesn't work.

    Generally yea if you grab the leaves with vigour it defo stings less. Apparently Roman's used to jumped into thickets of nettles for fun. Mad Italian buggers.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Exactly. Nettles have little hairs on the underside of their leaves.

    Brush (stroke) those hairs against you and it will sting. Clamp your fingers straight down on the hairs and they wont sting.

    (and yes, rub a dock leaf on the sting to lessen the pain...doesnt seem to work though...)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,751 ✭✭✭Saila


    and its true your cock is the one place on your body that doesn't feel a nettle sting also

    Is it rub your dick with a dock leaf or rub your dock with a dick leaf?

    Confused.

    If AH was a dog, I think it's time to take it to a vet, and put it quietly to sleep.

    Happened long ago. Not a bother, rubbed a Dock Leaf on it and it grew back. True story.

    It's only the edge of the leaf and stalk that have stingers you can hold the centre of the leaf without getting stung.
