Post up your stories that you could say to someone, "ask me how I know?" lol 
I'll start, if someone were to tell me that poison ivy isn't that bad, I'll say oh yeah, ask me how I know it is that bad lol.
A few years ago during the earliest part of the scamdemic I was put out of work until further notice. Figuring I had lots of time on my hands I went solo camping. I found a spot that just needed some ground clearing and so with my hatchet and bare hands I started chopping off the slightly taller stuff to have a decently flat ground. I saw this dark reddish 3 leaved plant but it was tall, a good 2 feet tall. I've dealt with poison ivy lots in the past with bare hands and it never once bothered me, this did not look like what I'm used to seeing so, I cleaned house.
Well, after a while I had to pee something fierce so time for a break. Not thinking at all about what I had been up to I did my binness and carried on. Well friends, let me tell ya, by the next day it looked like my junk had a sudden growth in the range of elephantiasis lol. While impressive to see, the swelling was so severe that it made peeing almost impossible. I thought this part wasn't good, I should go to hospital and get this checked out, so off I go to see the doc.
I get in the ER, tell triage I had an encounter with poison ivy and detail the evidence, she puts me through right away and within minutes a female doctor is in to see me. She says "I hear you had an incident with a prescription for erectile dysfunction?" I said "scuse me?!...noooo, that's not at all what I said to triage lol" I tells her the sitchiation and she's like "ooooh ok, well I will have to see it". With a huge grin on my face I was like "absolutely, I'll gladly show you" I drop em them drawers I did and the look on her face was priceless! I said "I know right?! Pretty impressive isn't it??" ... again with this huge grin on my face
She says "do you mind if I show another doctor this?" I said"not at all, show away!" lol. Another female doctor comes in and the smiles on both of them were priceless Then they ask me to go to a waiting room and they'll be with me shortly. While waiting, a university student...a female one at that...comes in and says "the doctor asked me to check in on you and check to make sure everything is the same, no changes, would you mind showing me?" ... ...of course not, let me get this out for you ... again another smitten kitten begins to smile this uncontrollable smile and naturally I had to say "this is probably the most impressive time of my life". At that she slipped out a little burst laugh and said "the doctor will be with you soon "
Upon return both her and the doctor show up, they give me the run down of what they believe to expect and what to do if no changes with an appointment for a follow-up with a urologist. Well, the follow-up appointment rolls around and everything is back to normal, it has been about 2-3 days, I go wandering in, head down looking depressed lol. I meet the urologist, another pleasantly pretty gal and she said I am with a medical student, do you mind if SHE sees everything too...embarrassingly I said "well, you might as well get used to seeing embarassing sights so have it" ...they both start chuckling, I drop my drawers and everything is back to normal. The doctor says "wow, everything looks fine, I thought I was going to be putting in a catheter". I said "everything might look fine to you but let me tell ya, from the other day to today, and walking a distance in the cold, everything doesn't look fine to me at all lol, this is just down right embarrassing now lol". We all had a good laugh but the moral of the story is now, if anyone ever says around me that poison ivy isn't that bad I'll be saying oh yeah? I disagree, ask me how I know!
