Today, a wasp ended up in the house. Normally, I'd just open a door to outside and run for cover, but my 3-year-old son was home, so I decided to be brave and kill it. It flew into the air vents. We're now playing wasp roulette every time we enter a room. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found a wasp in my kitchen, so I opened the back door and left the room for 10 minutes in the hope that it would fly away. Upon returning, I found that there were now three wasps, a vicious cat, and a very panicked pigeon crashing around the room. FML
Today, a wasp somehow got into my parents' house, so I went hunting for it with my dad. I found it and, after getting into position, took a strong swing at it with a fly swatter. Unfortunately, being very uncoordinated, I missed. You can figure out the rest. FML
Today, my husband discovered a big wasp nest on the porch. Rather than spray it, he decided to suck up the wasps with the vacuum. He also did not empty it. I can see the still living wasps buzzing furiously inside the vacuum chamber and I'm scared to touch it. FML
Today, there were some wasps getting in my bedroom from a hole in the frame of my window. I went outside with some spray and took out their entrance. What I didnt know is that when you spray wasps, they go the other direction. I now have 60+ wasps flying around my bedroom. FML
Today, I was going to set up my air conditioner in the window. As I opened up the window, I must have disturbed a wasp nest, because a dozen wasps flew in and several of them stung me. The rest are now somewhere in my house with my terrified girlfriend. FML
Today, I walked into my son's room only to be attacked by a swarm of flies. I'm afraid to go back in there. FML
Today, there was a gigantic wasp in my room. It stupidly flew upwards and got hit by the rotating fan. It then immediately decided to take it's revenge by stinging me. FML
Today, I was stung by a red wasp. While my husband heroically killed it, I, the person terrified of wasps after being swarmed as a child, collapsed, sobbed, screamed, and almost vomited from sheer terror. Give me snakes, spiders, insects galore and I am fine. Single flying asshole of doom and I turn into a child. FML
Today, after six weeks of dealing with various exterminators, my roommate and I were about to toast to what we were told was a wasp-free room. That's when we noticed several much smaller wasps flying around. Not only is our wasp problem not solved, but our room is a wasp breeding ground. FML
Today, I thought I'd patched up the hole in my window pretty well. That is, until I heard a buzzing noise in my room. There was a huge ass bee that somehow got inside and was trying to escape. I would've helped, but I'm terrified of bees, and I'm now afraid to enter my room. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

There's only only solution. Get the gasoline, spread it everywhere and burn that house down. There is no other option

The wasp owns the house now, get out while you're still alive

Actually there is another option, op needs to give the wasp their 3 year old as a sacrifice

Good point - better make it plutonium. That'll fix it!

don't worry its just a wasp. keep a fly swatter handy and it'll come out of the vents eventually and you'll have a chance. good luck!

Close all the doors and pray to god it dies in the cold air vents. Lol. And get the **** outside now.

Wow, chill, it's only a wasp... Unless someone in your family is allergic, it's not a big deal. I got stung by a wasp several times, it hurts for a while, but it's not that bad. Now, if it was a hornet, that would be more scary.

I got stung on the face once...and the stinger broke off in my cheek.

I am remarkably tolerant of most bugs -- I'm the person who will scoop up stray spiders and moths and beetles while everyone else is panicking and set them back outside -- but wasps/hornets/yellow jackets/etc. just freak me the **** out. I don't care which kind is worse than another; they all fly and sting and generally act like assholes. If I see one in the house I tend to barricade myself in another room until it is dealt with by someone else.

#8 then it probably was a bee. They lose their stingers when they sting, and die. Yeah, getting stung hurts, but if you heat the sting up to as hot as you can bear it (either turn up the hot water in your sink and let it run over the sting, or use one of those anti-sting heater gadgets from the drug store) for about a minute, the protein from the venom will be destroyed and the pain and itching stops immediately.

It was definitely a wasp :) I think the stinger hit my cheekbone, and that's why it broke. It wasn't like a honeybee where the venom sac was still attached. I saw the beginnings of the nest later and realized that's probably why it stung me.

I also have a huge fear of anything of the bee/hornet/wasp/ect. Group. When I got stung, it might not have hurt much but it basically sent me into a panic attack and it took me a good while to calm down. My mom is arachnophobic, she can't stand even seeing pictures of spiders and is scared of any spider whether it's dangerous or not. For many it's not as simple as "it's not bad/harmless get over it".

Open a beer. Enjoy 1/4 of it, and leave it on the kitchen table. Open a second beer, and take it outside and sip it while you play with your 3yo for a while. The wasp will find the beer in the kitchen, climb in, and drown in under an hour.

That's a terrible waste of a good beer.

Wasps are worse than ISIS

Not remotely funny.

But nothing can be worse than this sorry excuse for a joke

I don't know about you, but I would rather get stung by a wasp than get captured by ISIS.

Home Depot has a really good wasp spray.

This is why the second amendment exists. Shoot that thing. SEND IT TO HELLLLL! (This has nothing to do towards mine or anyone else's political views on the second amendment)
LiGhTMaGiCk 18
Now I'm a great shot and if it's perfectly still I could do it, but do you really think that's the best option?
KingSquisher 13
Of course. Full auto. I'm also completely joking, but thanks for the votes despite the majority of them being negative.
