Those of you who know me personally (or follow
me on Facebook) may have heard that a couple of weeks ago I was stung at least a dozen times by wasps.
Ironically, I wrote this gag a few days before that happened. Honestly, though, I don’t have a problem with bees. Wasps, however…ugh. They’re trying to kill me.
Want proof? A few years ago, I was stung on the back of my head by a wasp. While attempting to run away from it, I fell on the sidewalk and broke some of my ribs.
I’m convinced that I was “double teamed.” One wasp stung me and another tripped me. Yes. They’re that mean!
