Today, I saw a wasp on the ground, apparently injured and unable to fly. It was being mobbed by ants and looked certain to die, so I stamped on the ants to save its life. At this point it sprung up, stung me, then flew off. FML

I am curious what code makes ants less worthy of life than wasps?

It's a life but I don't think people care about it, I'm fine with mass murder of wasps. Probably wouldn't lose any sleep over that one.

But maybe OP expected it to kiss him on the forehead and give him a gold star...could happen, right?

yea I don't understand the concept of killing ants to save a WASP.... I would rather save an ant any day.

OP, that was nature's way of punishing you for interfering. Be glad you got off lightly.

OP should have "put it out of it's misery." Would have ended the "suffering" and killed ants! DIE BITCHES. :P (ants scare me how they swarm things ._. )

If you knew anything about wasps, it's better to protect them rather than kill them. If you kill a wasp, it releases a chemical that warns others in the colony that they can sense even from far away. So if you kill a wasp, you have automatically declared war on the whole colony and they also chemically "remember" you. I saved a wasp that was trapped in my house one day, and ever since that day, everv time I go outside I have wasps sitting on my shoulders and singing like in a Disney movie.

We'll technically you could pour gas, #12. As long as it's denser than the medium it's being poured through!

Quirkology proves that it is possible to pour a gas by pouring oxygen deprived air over candles to put them out!

True. Mainly because I hate wasps but, even if for some bizarre reason you liked wasps, if it had been unable to fly it would've been as good as dead anyway so it'd actually be kinder to put it out of it's misery rather than 'saving' it by prolonging the suffering.

Wouldn't proper syntax be "prolonging the suffering by 'saving' it," not "'saving' it by prolonging the suffering?"

but you never trust a wasp. the ants trying to take him out was most likely for the best. but i get you trying to help it out even though you killed an army of ants in the process lol

Part of an army. I'm sure there are more ants where those came from.

I don't like killing things. Wasps, widows and the like do get killed when in the house. Though in op's situation, I would let nature take its course. What makes it ok to kill ants, which are usually harmless, to save a wasp? Think nature threw some karma out there.
