![A man has earned scientific recognition after he agreed to let a bee sting him on his penis in the name of research. Michael L Smith let the insects loose on his own body, ending up with stings on his male appendage and 24 other places. His dedication to the cause earned Smith an Ig Nobel prize for physiology and entomology. The Ig Nobel prizes seek to celebrate achievements that first make people laugh and then make them think, as a spoof on the more serious Nobel Prize awarded in Sweden, which will be announced next month. The annual prizes, meant to entertain and encourage global research and innovation, are awarded by the Annals of Improbable Research. But although Smith, from Cornell University, in Ithaca, New York, carefully arranged for honey bees to sting him repeatedly on 25 different locations on his body to learn about pain, he ended up sharing the gong with another researcher. On his research, Smith explained: "If you’re stung in the nose and the penis, you’re going to want more stings to the penis, over the nose –if you’re forced to choose. "There’s definitely no crossing of wires of pleasure and pain down there. It’s painful. Getting stung on the nose is a whole body experience. Your body really reacts. You’re sneezing and wheezing and snot is just dribbling out. It’s electric and pulsating." But perhaps even more galling was that his Ig Nobel prize is jointly awarded to Justin Schmidt, for painstakingly creating the Schmidt Sting Pain Index, which rates the relative pain people feel when stung by various insects. Smith, who previously studied bee-keeping at Atlantic College in Cowbridge near Cardiff, took agitated bees in forceps and applied them to 25 different areas of his body. He then rated the resulting pain from zero to ten. His injuries on the skull, middle toe tip, and upper arm were ruled the least painful and on the nostril, upper lip, and penis shaft were the most painful. Marc Abrahams, awards founder closed the awards event with the customary punchline: "If you didn't win an Ig Nobel prize tonight - and especially if you did - better luck next year." Other prizes for unusual exploits include the chemistry prize given to Callum Ormonde and Colin Raston from Australia, and Tom Yuan, Stephan Kudlacek, Sameeran Kunche, Joshua N. Smith, William A. Brown, Kaitlin Pugliese, Tivoli Olsen, Mariam Iftikhar, Gregory Weiss [USA], for inventing a chemical recipe to partially un-boil an egg. Among the 10 awards, three went to teams of researchers that revealed that nearly all mammals regardless of size take about 21 seconds to pee, showed it is possible to partially un-boil an egg with chemicals, and used math to determine how a North African emperor from the 17th century fathered 888 children in just 30 years. Other teams earned prizes for attaching a weighted stick to a chicken's rear end to demonstrate how dinosaurs might have walked, and for showing that acute appendicitis can be diagnosed by how much pain a patient feels when driven over speed bumps. Former winners of real Nobels handed out the spoof awards at the ceremony at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, organised by Marc Abrahams, editor of the Annals. The ceremony included a three-act mini-opera about a competition between the world's millions of species to determine which one is the best.](https://theuglyorange.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/michael-smith.jpg?w=625)

Now off the bat i was like this guys crazy for thinking you’d rather get stung on the penis than the nose but then i gave it a second thought and changed my mind and kinda justified it. Listen If I were to take an average time of how fast it can take me to jizz its probably some where between 1 minutes and 1 minute 1 second. There’s no scientific evidence to prove that this would work the way i think in my head but if a bunch of bees stung my dick and balls MAYBE just MAYBE id loose just enough sensitivity that I would last long enough to match the time of some sexy R&B song maybe. Is it a crazy thought? yes. But probably from putting on some pain reducing numbing cream all over the place it’ll dull the sensation to the right point where it still feels good but don’t disappoint her. Now as for the nose. I have pretty good skin so growing up i never had to use any acne things. Some people would use like Accutane and want to go on a murderous rampage. Thank god that wasn’t me. But once or twice i got a black head and thought i should remove it so i rummaged through my sisters thing that was use to remove black heads. One end had like a rope thing and the other end was like a fucking hypodermic needle. Both ends of those things SUCKED. Must be like a bazillion nerve endings at the nose. Just poking it and shit make me tear up and stuff from the pain. I hope that’s normal if not then fuck you, leave me alone about my pain threshold. Maybe one more relatable is when your picking your nose and like you yank on one that pulls a nose hair. Or Just pulling a nose hair in general. Shit would bring me to my knees in an instant. I imagine that pain is just as bad as a bee sting there and I can’t stand that type of pain.
So all in all, Yea Michael Smith here might have gotten some fake award in the name of science but really he should get a real nobel prize and i hope for his sake that he’s using his award to try to hook up with women. Its the least he can do for his penis after letting it get fucked up intentionally by Bees.
P.s- “There’s definitely no crossing of wires of pleasure and pain down there.” Would be devious of Michael if he was some sadomasochist who just cums from every bee sting on his dick. Like on the record just fake being like he’s in pain form the bee stings when really the pain just turns him into a freak sex slave to bee stings.
P.P.S- This blog post is weird and i revealed maybe too much about my jizz/stamina with women.
