Growing up we had an above ground pool in our backyard. It was surrounded by pebble rocks with flat stones leading up to the ladder to climb onto the deck.
The ladder could be lifted up once you were on the deck and locked for safety but all of us being little, when we would try and lower it gently we didnt have the strength and it would slam down onto the flat stone beneath it.
There was a little post right on each side of the ladder with brown tops that we would usually knock off somehow and on the right post we couldnt find the top. After a summer we realized there was a wasp nest growing inside of the post but no one ever bothered to get rid of it.
I went outside to go swimming with my brothers and they ran up the ladder and pulled it up behind them per usual. Making me beg and plead for them to let me up.
Finally my oldest brother pushed the ladder down and it slammed so hard it rattled the wasps nest and they came flying out of the post.
I guess my brother's quickly jumped into the pool to get away from them but i didnt notice and they all came out and started stinging my face.
I passed out and woke up in the living room with an emergency squad and my neighbor and parents all standing over me.
Everything felt swollen and i couldnt move my lips and then i think i passed out again.

Now you can tell some lies about the good times that you've had
but I've kissed your Mother twice and now I'm working on your Dad.
