Btw never do that. You're supposed to put vinegar on it, that way the jellyfish tastes way better.
- Jellyfish isn't exactly a delight to eat anyway. Barely has any flavor at all and feels like you're eating partially dissolved leather.
  
  You need to marinade it, so you need some chilli as well.
  
  You've been eating bad jellyfish. It should have the texture of crunchy spaghetti.
  
  I've seen Asian supermarkets selling jellyfish, I guess it was flavoured in some way. Never got to try it though.

FTR, don't pee on a Jellyfish sting, you're basically dumping sewer water onto an open wound by doing that
- I'm convinced the only reason this myth exists is because writers with a pee fetish were trying to come up with a way to shoe horn it into a story.
- Fresh urine is supposed to be sterile, unless you got a serious problem, anyways.
  
  That's a myth.
  From wikipedia:
  Bacteria and pathogens
  Urine is not sterile, not even in the bladder.[21][22] In the urethra, epithelial cells lining the urethra are colonized by facultatively anaerobic Gram-negative rod and cocci bacteria.[23] One study conducted in Nigeria isolated a total of 77 distinct bacterial strains from 100 healthy children (ages 5–11) as well as 39 strains from 33 cow urine samples, a considerable amount being pathogens.[24]
  
  I feel like this misconception is because of the survival tactic of drinking piss over sea water. It's not sterile, just more edible than sea water.

So this is why it wasn't working. People were doing it wrong. You supposed to piss on the jelly.
- I saw Piss On the Jelly when they toured with Gwar in '93. Good times.
  
  Surprised Gwar was still touring in 93. Did they put spikes with armor on their walkers?

So, now you need our upright urination and directable excretion skills.
- You need to meet the right girl.

Mayo Clinic Minute: What to do if stung by a jellyfish?
- Apparently don't pee on it. Today I learned.
  
  Now the meme needs a new title: "Dave! I've been stung by a Jellyfish! Quick, get the credit card!" goes on to buy another burger
- Some websites say not to scrape, but to use tweezers. Also to have a small bottle of vinegar on you while at the beach.
  
  Thanks! Can you see the stingers with the naked eye to pull them out? I thought they were microscopic.
  I wonder if something like a vacuum would work.

I wouldn't put my dick so close to that.
