There are thousands of wasp species and the overwhelming majority don't even have the ability to sting humans. You probably don't ever even notice them, despite being the most important group of pollinators in the world, because you might mistake them for bees or flies. Also, bees are wasps (and so are ants).

Every non-aggressive wasp species:

Not wasps, but yellowjackets specifically. Irrational anger with wings, little bastards.

Love me some chill time with a mud dauber though.

I once bought a house with two mature, fruiting pear trees. I learned to quickly pick up any pears that fell to the ground, because if I didn't, the pear juice would ferment under the skin, and become slightly alcoholic.

Then wasps would pierce the skin, drink the juice, get drunk, and then chase around anyone who entered the yard. Apparently wasps are mean drunks.

Didn't know that previously, but not surprised. Wasps are dickheads on a good day.

Many wasp species are generally non-aggressive, and great pollinators! If they don't fuck with you, then don't fuck with them!

Mr.Gardener or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Wasp.

I'm irrationally fearful of wasps, like I absolutely freak out when one is near me, but I learned they eat some of the annoying fuckers that ruin my vegetables/lettuce so I learned to tolerate them lol

And then the first time you see a cicada wasp...
The sight of one of those will make you want to find a brick to drop on it, until you find out that they're completely harmless. (unless you're a cicada)

Bumble bee? More like stumble bee.

What I want to know is if the bumble bee is called that because of the word bumble, or if the word bumble got that meaning because of the bee......ok, so a visit to wiktionary tells me the word bumble came first, then was applied to the bee.

EDIT: Wait, it may be the other way around. bumblebee came from humbul-be and merged with Middle English bombeln humble meaning to buzz. Man, I still don't really even know.

The bumble bee part is so accurate. They’re basically the golden retrievers of the insect world—super fuzzy, very friendly, and zero motor skills.

Wasps are the F-16s of the bee world.

Carpenter bees: don't worry about these little holes in your wood framing, I'm justdestroying your home.

Me: back at you!

My local wasps don't bother me and I don't bother them. Long as you aren't close to the nest, most wasps are chill.

*Mason bee gets headache and sees numbers

Mason bee: the numbers, arrrgghhh what do they mean?
