Wasps.
I fucking hate them.
I'm aware that it's unusual of me to be so...
...vocal.
But I do
I hate wasps with passion.
For that matter, I dislike most bugs.
They crawl everywhere
Unexpected
Unannounced
Unseen
Untouched
Invasive
Demanding
Stealing
Pestering.
All of these things.
Yet...they're also a part of nature.
So...
Can I really hate them?
...yes, yes I can.
It's a personal thing.
Insects make my skin crawl with unease
Like the feeling of someone walking on your grave.
I tend to spasm from time to time
And become slightly nauseated.
Why?
Why do I react that way?
I don't really know.
Honestly, most bugs aren't that harmful
Just...invasive.
...extremely invasive.
Bee stings aren't really comparable to say...kidney stones
But they still sting like a bitch.
Unexpectedly.
And why?
Because the bee feels you're encroaching on its territory
...-you- are encroaching on -its- territory.
...What?
Are you serious?
Why all the territorial issues anyway
To raise a family safely?
Could I argue that I'm attempting to do the same thing
And they are in fact encroaching upon my territory?
Is it self-defense?
Or is it selfishness?
Why am I so concerned?
Bees are bees
Birds are birds
Dogs are dogs
People are people.
Yet...we do not live in harmony.
And who is to blame?
We both desire peace and solitude
Yet...we have no means to reach said agreement.
Surely there is more to this than Attack or Be Attacked.
Is that the real name of the game?
Miscommunication leads to such things.
So how does one overcome it?
Or do you at all?
If I continue to let a wasps nest fester
I will be in danger
If I destroy the nest
The eggs are in danger
...
It just doesn't seem right.
But I do know this
If I get stung, I'd be really really fucking pissed.
I fucking hate them.
