    Whenever you see posts like this assume that the op is referencing yellow jacket waps, after I started gardening ive learned more about wasps and their part to play in my garden, yellow jacks can suck a dick though. They can go from 0 to 100 real quick and little provocation, I will choose to protect my kids over them.

      I already liked wasps before, you don’t have to sell to me. Different topic though: How do you make them do that?

      Paper wasps are complete dicks too but I hold a specific grudge for bald faced hornets!

        I honestly feel like I’d have a hard time telling them apart, I already have a hard time telling european bees from yellow jackets.

          Paper wasps are the ones with the long dangly legs. Bald faced hornets are larger and black and white.

      California’s Oxnard High School team/mascot is the Yellow Jackets. Admittedly they are badass motherfuckers, but it’s a little weird in cheering because most traditional cheers assume two syllables and you wind up yelling “Go Jackets!” like some kind of radical haberdashery
