Would you RATHER have to:
jump in a lake on a very cold morning, or
be stung by several bees at once?
(Assume that both are safe; you won't get hypothermia or have a severe allergic reaction)

Interesting. I can wash dishes in water so hot my hands turn (slightly frighteningly) red...

Cold lake is actually good for you though. Doubt bee stings are

I kinda doubt it is for people who have the kind of experience I do: headache lasting for hours, feeling of extreme anxiety/danger, difficulty not crying

If they’re honey bees I’ll take that. But it’s like a small hammer hit when hornets
around here get you. Then gimme the iceThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

These things are so hard to compare! Cold water - provided you're not going to get hypothermia - feels safer and less invasive. Bees put mini poison under your skin!

Yeah for me when I think bees I think itchiness and swelling. If i could have the pain without those, I’d pick the pain (eg electric shock). But otherwise main reason for picking cold is you can warm back up faster

Maybe you’ve already solved this/it’s a non-issue in Venice Beach, but my top tips for this are: a wool base layer (very important) https://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-base-layer-and-thermal-underwear/ … + down jacket for the outdoors. Indoors, a heating pad is nice for sleeping https://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-heating-pad/ …

@devonzuegel gets cold hands and bought a USB hand warmer, but not sure how that worked out

I suspect you've never been stung by multiple bees
