Where's that PillowLover chap when you need him?

A woman found this enormous wasps nest in her unused spare room. They had eaten through the pillow and mattress. The blanket was saved, though.....

Geez. I walk around in my house in the dark.

"Honey, would you please grab the comforter off the bed in the spare bedroom."

How do they know they are WASPS? Some could be Jewish. :-)

Same way you do--by the appearance of their stingers.

Not to pick on Spuck, but I find the flashing emoticon, what ever it is supposed to mean, annoying in the extreme, mainly because it has an auditory effect somewhere deep in my computer.
I am surprised to find wordplay on WASP in regard to English wasps. Isn't that an American term?
Does anyone have an idea as to what kind of wasps those are?

Well, that's weird.

Jim's computer has synaesthesia!

I bet it smells like the number 8.

Well yes, WASP is an American term, but this board is international and known for thread-drift.... and I rarely hear the term wasp used here (in Midwestern USA) to describe the yellow and black stinging insects. they call everything answering that description a bee. Occasionally a hornet. But mostly bees. *shrug* I gave up on that years ago.

Really? Down here everyone knows the difference between a bee and a wasp. Bees make kids squeal and parents launch into the "leave it alone and it will leave you alone" speech.

Wasps make everyone leap up, gather their most treasured possessions, say a hail Mary, and toss a Molotov cocktail over their shoulder as they run screaming for the hills.

That picture makes me nauseous. Wasps are evil incarnate.
