One time at camp I was told to go get bark from a tree for a project. I picked up a paper plate, went over to the tree and asked nicely for some bark while holding out the plate, as if the tree would voluntarily drop some bark, whatever bark was. Then another student came up and peeled bark off the tree for me. I was nauseated.
