The first days after Hurricane Juan were wasp hell. All their squats had been demolished and they were roaming the streets like little yellow jacketed anarchists. You think we have a swarming problem this September?
I was at an argyle street restaurant the other day and killed 6 at my table while I was eating!! Seriously!! The waitress felt so bad and closed the windows…but they just kept coming in. I feel so bad for businesses being affected by this. And people with allergies!!
they are out to get me….
seriously, you don’t have to worry.
I’ve been stung in the dead of winter.
they send drones out to hunt me down wherever I go.
when they ask if you’ve seen me, just say no and they will move on.
Hmm….never noticed any around my bin. But then, I don’t bother recycling….everything just goes into garbage bags……still haven’t had the garbage men complain.
other than flying stingy guys and earwigs, it has been a great season for spiders, bees , birds, toads, frogs and crickets…nature rawks and she is one bad bitch
Saw a heron on the way to DunderMifflin on Monday morning. That was the last good thing that happened to me this week.
oh dear admiral, it’s only the first hump day…screee
all the time off you’ve had Ivan (Drago?)
I can imagine going back to work sucks balls….
This week has sucked a 100 miles of dead ass and that’s a fact. >: (
Next vacation’s not till December. I’ll be dreaming wistfully of clock towers and a non-registered, scope-mounted long gun long before then.

Damn it, I thought I killed Hornet Man last time I played Megaman 9. I blame Dr. Wily.
I love Nick Park. That penguin in “The Wrong Trousers” had the most soulless eyes. He should have been collecting debts for the Soprano crew.
IT that time of year…hasn’t anyone else noticed this before ????
Happens around this time of the year every year !
i notice everything mr. more that’s why i’m fecked in the tete
there is an over abundance in hornets, wasps, ants and bed bugs this year, the vets say it is because of the climatic change in weather patterns, i say bull fucking shit. just breeding more than ever, and not subseptible to the new pesticides they are making.
Fuck you hornets!!! Go back to freakin’ Charlotte.
