I was stung once by a bee when I was a kid and my mother threw mud on it. While the mud dried, it drew out the stinger.

anyhow, mad props to bees. They are heroes more ways than one. I actually find this quite inspirational. No matter how small and insignificant you may feel you are, small acts can still have big consequences.
