One Man vs. One Hundred <superscript>*</superscript> This is the story of a single man (coincidentally named Major) against an army of one hundred. Young Major leased a vast amount of land, with open space galore. After many years, intruders began to show. Initially, they just visited. Then, they preyed. Finally, they grew roots and built homes. Eventually, over a hundred of the enemy populated Major's lands. Initial attempts to fight back were repelled. The intruders drove back all of Major's attempts. Major was banned from a portion of his own lands. Today, all of that changed. Today was the day one man stood up and fought while vastly outnumbered. After visiting the local weapons & ammunition store, Major came back armed with long-range weapons. Major attacked. Hell was unleashed in unrelenting fashion. The enemy tried to fight back, but it was useless. One by one, they fell. Some fled, others died. None will return. After a fierce battle lasting two minutes, only one man remained standing (and no, it wasn't one of the bad guys). Today, Major reconquered his home and his freedom. Tell this story to your children and grandchildren. Tell them what you did on this great day and where you were when this great tale came upon your ears. Most importantly, tell them how dumb the story is and how bored the author was. <superscript>*</superscript> This story was formerly named Major vs. the 3 Wasp's Nests on his Balcony. Up to 100 Wasps were killed in the making of this story. They will be missed.
haha.. good story. you know.. i just found out this weekend if you throw soap water on bees they just drop and die. I wonder if it works for wasps too.
you know.. i just found out this weekend if you throw soap water on bees they just drop and die. I wonder if it works for wasps too. Good question. I found some Wasp Spray that had a little cannon on it. It shoots out 15-20 feet, so I was able to hide inside my apt, open my balcony door, shoot some spray, close the door, and repeat.
Congrats my fellow veteran! I took out about 5 of those SOB's last weekend, I only had a spray bottle that shot about 6ft or so. But I got them good and their nest and they are gone. I will get a hair spray can and a lighter and go to battle with you ANYDAY!
ahhh...the very definition of bravery!!! of course, i've been stung by those stupid things so many times i have a reaction to them...so i would have been hiding in the other room, waiting to hear how it went with the bug spray! i was stung one time in my backyard on my left hand...was heading out to Gustafson's baseball camp at UT the next week...my hand was so swolen i couldn't put my glove on!!!!! apparently, with wasp stings the more you get stung, the worse your reaction!
Have you looked into the possibility that you are allergic MadMax? You should get tested, because it can be very serious. My mother almost died once. After that, she went through some medical treatment for a cure so we don't have to worry about that anymore.
maaaan. i was stung by a wasp on memorial day weekend. I was opening up my barbecue pit thing. there were some wasp in it. one of them came out, and stung me on the inside of my legs on my left leg. it was right on the theigh. it hurted alot. just the initial sting though, but after awhile, it was okay. it was just kinda red around the sting place. i was also stung a long time ago. i was nine or something. i was playing basketball at some kids house, and i went to get the ball in the yard, and their was a wasp on it. i picked up the ball, and the wasp stung me on the face. i was only nine, and it kinda hurt. instead of going home to treat it, i just rubbed some ice on it, and washed it, and then continued to play basketball. when i got back home, my mother was pissed that i didn't come back home to get it treated. good story major. i thought you were talking about something else.
I hate wasps. I was stung by one of those fuggers right above the eye when I was 6 or 7. I was just being a kid, hammering a pole that was sticking out of the ground when that flying terror came buzzing out and went right for me. I think it hurt...can't really remember pain that far back. Anyway, good work Major, but I think your adversaries may have moved their forces to my apartments. Last week I had to take out one of their spys that made it into my stronghold. I did some recon and found their headquarters. I'll probably just put a call into the special forces(ie. apt maintenance) to come out and exterminate the infidels.
This is why Major is one of my favorite posters. Coincidentally, I used to hunt wasps as a kid in the field across the street from my house. Never got stung, oddly enough. I was armed with nothing but my Easton Fastswing , and I used to kill dozens a day during the Summer. I guess that's the kind of stuff kids did before video games.
This girl I work with is extremely allergic to fire ants. She say she got bit by one(or several) and screwed her up royally. Apparently she was hospitalized for a few days. It caused her to go into a big depression and to gain a lot of weight. Now she has to swallow pills on a daily basis. Yikes!
Major doesn't mention the dozens of messages he left on my cell phone. Most of them were unintelligible due to the crying and buzzing, but what I could make out was that he was scared ****less and ready to give in. I personally think he called in a professional since I was in Waco.
