Nevertheless, it’s probably not a good idea to wank with a hornet’s nest.

The guy’s problem is that he didn’t buy the hornets dinner first.

Now, granted I was already having migraine auras at the time, but this article caused a bit of a disagreement in our household last night.

I read the article to him. He was slightly amused and squicked out but when I got to the part where a neighbour described him as looking like a bloated whale the husband called BS. He told me the story couldn’t be real. It was a real story, that reported on a fake story, but I hadn’t read that far along. I said I was not going to research every facet of a story before I read it to him, sometimes I just want to share a newsy tidbit. And I stormed away.

About two hours later I was violently throwing up, seeing colours and lights, and felt like my head was exploding.

I blame the hornet fucking Swedes. (Not the rest of them, just the horny for hornets ones)

Well, you know those Swedes. The women are always kicking hornets’ nests, and the men, who don’t feel pain…
