[QUOTE=Zeemlapje;42404786]Remove needle, dunk them in some batter and DEEP FRY THEM FUCKERS. Very nutritious!![/QUOTE] I always assumed wasps/hornets would taste quite raunchy. Whatever glands in them that produce venom must be pretty awful tasting.
I don't think I regret doing anything as much as I regret seeing that OP.

I've heard that these things are loud as hell when they're flying around. So at least you know they're coming.

[QUOTE=Destroyox;42416007]"Is this gonna be a standup fight sir, or just another bug hunt?"[/QUOTE] Haaaa
They're definitely a Vespa Mandarinia subspecies judging by the general shape of the body segments, but as for the dark coloration and somewhat unusual size, I can't tell the specific subspecies. Does anybody have a confirmed name of said subspecies, or are they just being classified as "Asian Giant Hornets" ?

This may have already been mentioned before, but the wasps in the OP picture are queens of that species which is why they are bigger. Not that it makes them any less terrifying.

[QUOTE=Jimesu_Evil;42418554]Wrong movie.[/QUOTE] Still applicable.

Yeah, I'm never going back to sleep. Ever. And I was already very phobic about stinging insects too.

I think going back to wearing those medieval age full-iron suits of armor might have some merit to it.

On the note of wasps being useless, I always thought they existed to keep a balance between the insect populace. They are hunters and don't produce anything on their own. Still they're a bitch to deal with, especially those hornets. I had a nest just outside of my house once in a tree. Once you came to close to the tree, you heard really loud and menacing sounds. It was pretty frightening.
