What can you tolerate more about a sunburn, the burn or the itch?

[Drunken Irishman]

For me, it's definitely the burn.

It's the itching I hate more than anything. Especially if it's that deep itch, so far under the skin that it rocks your bones.

Well that's what I am going through right now. It sucks.

Fuck you, Sun.

1. The itch.

I don't get the kind that rocks my bones though. It's just a regular itch. What I like even less is scratching it and feeling that screaming pain afterward. That really sucks.

The burn on my arm which I got from my oven is itching, too. Damn thing. Now this really does itch to a very irritating degree, but it was way worse than a sunburn. I want to just scratch it and scratch it and scratch it.

3. See, the itch would be fine if you could sratch it away, you know?

But when you scratch, it comes back more forceful it seems.

2. I don't really know, since I can't scratch the itch without hurting the burn.

I'm sorry you're so miserable.

4. I normally don't scratch, but run my fingers across it.

Which helps, for a second, then makes matters worse right after.

Bah

And thanks.

5. What's even worse is poison ivy on your private parts.

6. Well that's what you get using it for lube!
