I Love Technology!

I watched my Chinese housemate kill wasp nests by splashing them with pans of boiling water hot from the stove. Killed them instantly. Then he took the nest down, dug the grubs out, fried them in vegetable oil until golden brown... aaaaaaand ate them.

I tried a couple. They weren't bad!

It is crazy to think about this stuff as an American who never ate a bug on purpose.

We would twist up a paper bag, light it and burn the wings off the wasp, then use the grubs for fishbait. There are waspnests on the river the size of dinner plates. Lots of fishbait. But you want to do it right the first time.

I'm allergic to wasps so I would definitely want to get it right the first time.

My worst wasp encounter was bush hogging. I got 23 stings, but hurt my back so bad jumping off the tractor, they were just a aggravation. That was mid 80's. Back has been touchy every since.

Sorry man. That sucks.

It was cathartic to eat the toasted grubs; now I tell them that if they fuck with me I'll hunt them down and eat their children!

Or the French farm girl who tried moldy goat cheese and discovered Roquefort.

Or the hungry peasants who ate moldy grain and tripped so hard on the psychedelic effects of rye ergot they started the French Revolution!

That might even be why psychedelic drugs are illegal lol

Just hope your neighbors don't rig up a nugg catching net on their drone. You could put little straight razors on the rotors. . . . . . . .

HaHa:blsmoke:

I think the aerodynamics of the drone would be affected with 3 or 4 tiny straight razors attached to the blades tho........might fly some, just hard to be precise in the air.
