Flying Assholes ( Add Wasp's and Hornets )

100% factual statment Wasps and Hornets are the Flying assholes of the insect world.

So why not add in a few more insects to torment us.

Jorb Could:

Add in yellow Jackets, Their nests are usualy made of paper although they have a habit of making their nests underground as well.
They are attracted to cooking food. Whats a picnic or feast without having to fight these cunts over who actuly owns the food your about to eat. These guys sting alot and attack in mass swarms. ive only had one run in with these when mowing a field on a tractor. I ended up in a hospital and had to be given antivenom for these 100% the worst day of my life. These guys are also known to rain domestic beehives and rob them of honey and eat the young. Theres Japanese wasps that do the same but their the size of your finger.

Paper Wasps: These guys are freeloading assholes that dont pay rent. They just move on in and setup their paper combs under the eves of your houses. They have 0 concept of what personal space is and will get all up in yo face if you get to close to their nests. they generally dont aggro you unless you get to close to the hive or are swatting at them. Ive never been stung by a paper wasp but they look like Satan's henchmen ive heard the stings hurt like a motherfucker but they usualy wont sting you unless you give them a reason to.

Bald Faced Hornets: These Flying Fuckwads live in the stereotypical roundish paper nest. These guys are pissed off even before they leave their nest. Their sole purpose in life to to fly around and fuck shit up. They will find you and jack you up. Spawns in trees or just sets up shop under the eves of a house. These guys hurt ALOT extremely painful. I was out hunting. Sitting up in my treestand minding my own fuckin business then out of nowhere this mother fucker flys in lands on my ear and stings the shit out of it while biting me as well. Hurt so much i almost fell out of the tree so painful i threw up and cried as i walked back home with an ear the size of a tomato.


So much "Fun" to be had with these guys

As someone who has had extensive bad experiences with all hornets and wasps, +1 Would like others to feel my pain.

Also those pics made me laugh so much, specifically because they're so true. I am dead-set that hornets legitimately love stinging things and watching them writhe in pain. The worst thing is i've heard if you kill or even lightly wound one it sends off a pheromone that tells all other wasps nearby to swarm and attack. You literally can't even fight back!

I remember my first experience with them too. I was like 6 and my family had this little red car about 4-5 feet long that you could drive around in, we loved it. Me and my brother got in one day and a bunch of wasps nested there, decided "hey look some toddlers let's go f**k em up" and came out in a swarm. Luckily the second we saw them emerging we ran for it, i only got stung a couple times and iirc my bro was fine.

Don't worry, we got our revenge though. Only a couple years later we bought a sandbox, and we liked to take sand and dump it on them while they ate the rotting fallen apples from our apple tree and watch them suffocate. Was fun!
Total misplay.

Faster than sand and maybe, just maybe, more painful:

As a rule of thumb, everything that makes life easyer and less boring/grinding for players is a great idea. Everything that makes the game harder is crap coming from sadistic tendencies of Jorbtar helped by the few players with the same kind of disorders.

For the ones in germany:
Wasps and hornets are protected species here, 5k€+ fines for ones who mess with them.

The hornets we have here are deeply relaxed, unless you really annoy them (like stepping on them) you're good.
Wasps can be relaxed by making sure they have enough to drink (water, not booze) - then, unless you come near their nest or agitate them, you're good.

You are blessed to not experience the evil that are Yellow Jackets.

Those buggers have a vendetta against any living thing.

Holy damn, Granger introduce me to your hornets! Actually don't.

I don't know what you smoke but they are very aggressive most of the time and very territorial. Why does that matter? Because they just love nesting around where you'd like to be. Very hostile towards honey bees, as they tend to wipe out whole hives if for some reson they're too weak to defend.

Pros for hornets around your household:
- Will eat some pest bugs!

Cons for hornets:
- very painful stings
- small trees and branches are in danger, because they love to girdle them
- they hunt the honey bees

- in other words, don't listen to the madman that Granger is, kids!

I also checked what's the fine for abusing the European Hornets in Germany and it's 50k Euros tops. So now you see why he's so pro-hornet guy!

Each of them should give a separate wound, and all should count towards Allergic Reaction. Consider making them faster than speed 3 as well.

More random insects to randomly sting you with no way to defend from them are always good!
