I see what you did with “realpoo”. Nice! We provide towels for all our guests and you may notice the shower is already graced with Disney’s H2O realpoo and shower gel 
Well pals, I done stepped in it this past Saturday – literally.
Just push mowing part of my yard. Minding my own business, but ran over a yellow jacket nest. Boy were they cheesed! 11 stings: 1 on my left forearm, 3 on my lower right leg, and 7 on my lower left leg. Good thing I’m not allergic! Still the pain and irritations kept we awake all through Saturday night. Sunday night, I terminated the nest with extreme prejudice (gasoline and flame). The irritation had finally subsided by then so I slept well knowing there were 1,000-3,000 less yellow jackets in the world. Those things sure bring out the sith in me 
Oh my gosh!!!
I am so sorry to hear that! That sounds so painful! 
Very glad you’re not allergic. I’m not surprised it brings out the Sith in you! I think that’s perfectly justified. I like your “extreme prejudice” method, that is my brother’s also. We constantly had wasps nests in our storage shed in the backyard growing up. A year or so ago my brother took a vacation and came back to find them nesting in the door of his car! 
I hope you’re recovering well.I will say your post reminded me of this:
https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/animalcrossing/images/7/77/WaspsStungTwice.gif/revision/latest?cb=20200402043621 Oh my gosh! That’s the thing about wasps. Not there today, there tomorrow! And the yellow jackets burrow in the ground so you don’t know the nest is there until it’s too late!
that gif was me! Funny danced/ran to the door of my house yelling expletives which just turned to AHHH!!! AHHH!!! AHHH!!!…They had me pegged too! My wife and I could smell the targeting pheromones when I got inside. Oh my gosh! That’s the thing about wasps. Not there today, there tomorrow!
Exactly!!! Takes them all of 5 minutes to make a nest. Yeah you’ll never find a yellow jacket nest until you do. PURE EVIL! Why they gotta be like that?
@Nascfan you do have to sometimes! Why do these things exist?!
Everything you speak is the truth! Although without mosquitos we would never have had Jurassic Park so there’s that…

Can’t argue with you there!!!!
Apparently yellow jackets eat certain parasites, but often it seems they are the parasites. I wish I could Infinity gauntlet snap them.
@nascfan – Yeah your argument for mosquitos is compelling! Fortunately there’s not too many where I live. Not enough standing water for them to breed in! I wish I could Infinity gauntlet snap them.

Lucky!!! I swear they’re a mutant breed here. They’ve bitten me through my clothes more than once!
