That's good that it's dealt with in a positive light. The only time I've ever seen it on TV was on the sitcom Friends--don't know if you watch that in the UK. Well, the gag is that they go to the beach and one of the girls steps on a jellyfish and it stung her foot. Well, at least in the States people believe--who knows if it's true--that if someone pees on the sting it breaks down the toxin and relieves the pain. Well, anyway, she convinces Chandler to try, and he gives it a "go", only to be mocked for the rest of the show for having had "stage fright" at the critical moment. Turns out Ross or Joey had to valiantly step in for him. Coincidence that Chandler always ends up being less of a "real man" in that show?
