minus-squarehappyhippo@feddit.itlinkfedilinkarrow-up27arrow-down2·10 months agoMy two most notable encounters with yellow jackets (here we call them European wasps or Vespula Germanica) went pretty much like this: oh shit, there’s a wasp buzzing around on my path. Act cool, don’t show your fear, just move on and nothing will happen Wasp: stings You bitch, just go extinct already
