Now I have another site bookmarked to read at my leisure. Any one that understands the correlation between a four headed penis and hentai deserves to be read.

Quote
And of course the males have four-headed penises like … well, maybe something out of hentai?

Roll around and scream on the ground is right. Saw a guy in CA get stung. He was almost alright the next day.

4 headed penis???  Is that almost like a 3 peckered goat??

Thanks a lot pal, for info I didn't need.  :laugh:  

I didn't know we had them in CA too. I absolutely hate wasps. I've been stung more times than I care to think about by whatever the "regular" wasps are, and they hurt enough as it is.

It was around San Ardo CA, right up the road from Paso Robles on the Chevron lease. If you live near, be careful. The article is correct. They don't buzz you, or jack with you. I think they are blind or know they can knock ones pecker off. The guy that got stung, picked a flower and didn't pay attention to the BigAss wasp on it.

Yes, we do. I pet one I saw on a milkweed plant in my yard because it was so pretty. And then I went inside to get my bug book and found out what it was. :O

As someone with WAY too much time on my hands the days, and who takes up a good chunk of his time watching anime (the wife calls it pornime), I know all too well the correlation. FWIW, I only watched a LITTLE out of curiosity and that was PLENTY for me! Hell, I avoid Ecchi these days!

You should have seen the look on my daughter's face when I explained that most wasps retain the stinger and can sting repeatedly.  Not a fan of that concept lol
Having been stung by both yellow jackets and bees....I'll take the *expletive deleted*ing yellow jacket.  (as long as it's not a massed attack)

You have to include dirt dobbers or mud dobbers down here also.  They look like nasty wasps, but they generally won't sting unless you grab one. 
The only time I got stung by a wasp I had one buzz me in the yard and I stupidly pulled off my hat and swatted at it.  About 1/2 and hour later, the wasp that got hung up in my hat stung me on the back of the head.

I am more concerned about stuff like this.  Our unit is in that same site though we are upwind.  It is a benzene leak.  I think is has mostly died down, but I don't think they have called it all clear yet.

I got stung 30+ times in one go by hornets in high school when I unknowingly stood over their hole-in-the-ground nest one evening.  Went right up my pant leg, they did.  Ouch.
Found out I had a bee sting allergy when I was in grade school after stepping on a honey bee, getting stung on my right heel.
Been stung a time or three by yellow jackets since then.  Give me the yellow jackets and hornets over bees any time.

Of course, I might change my tune if I get stung by one of those big honkin' monster Gojirilla Japanese hornets that inhabit this area of NC.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.
