And that's not a bug zapper, it's a paddle.

You put a bunch of them inside a condom and start thrusting boys

Do they need to be alive? Asking for a friend.

With fire.

I didn't know they were pollinators. I feel low key bad about the battle I waged on some attempting to build a nest in my house the other day. I didn't kill any of them, but got some direct hits with the bug a salt. Pollinators or not, they can fuck right off from my house tho

That fig-urs.

Honestly, wasps (the ones common where I live) are pretty chill, sure they always go in your face, but you can just gently wave in their general vicinity and they will avoid you. The only times when they are aggressive is in autumn.

I love wasps because someone else always freaks out and draws the heat.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

It's the same as they say about bears. You don't have to run faster than the bear, you have to be faster than your friend. You just have to not freak out long er than your friend. The consequences are the same
