Killer Hornets with Flesh Dissolving Venom

[laklak]

You get one big one, tame it and name it "Ben". It rides around on your shoulder and orders the others to do your evil bidding.

[mistermack]

To be honest, I'd rather deal with one of these than an ordinary wasp.
At least you can see them coming, and you're hardly going to get one in your mouth, when you bite into an apple.

Biting into one of those probably feels like biting into an apple. A horrible, venom-filled death apple.

[Horwood Beer-Master]

Satan made them, you know.

Wrong.

All things dull and ugly,
All creatures short and squat,
All things rude and nasty,
The Lord God made the lot.

Each little snake that poisons,
Each little wasp that stings,
He made their brutish venom.
He made their horrid wings.

All things sick and cancerous,
All evil great and small,
All things foul and dangerous,
The Lord God made them all.

Each nasty little hornet,
Each beastly little squid,
Who made the spikey urchin?
Who made the sharks? He did!

All things scabbed and ulcerous,
All pox both great and small,
Putrid, foul and gangrenous,
The Lord God made them all.

Ah, but venom is not necessarily poisonous.
Anyway, we probably wouldn't be here, if creepy crawlies were all bad to eat. Our ancestors fed on them for millions of years.

If the fuckers were edible they wouldn't be a problem in China. They'll eat cat guts on rice over there.

Oh right.
I thought that that was a cajun dish.

[laklak]

That would be cat guts on rice AND red beans. With okra.

[Clinton Huxley]

I'm never leaving the house again.

From the OP:

"Other than this, hornets are attracted to bright colours and the smell of people's sweat, alcohol and sweet things,"

Just like a flock of bimbos, really...

"We're doing everything we can, but there's only so much we can do," says Deng Xianghong, the deputy head of the Ankang propaganda department. "God has been unfair to us."

WTF!

I would have thought he would have been a right little godless marxist, particularly being in the propaganda department...

Satan made them, you know.

Indeed, they hatch from the roots of the Beelzebub of vegetation - parsley.

And suckled on Brussels Sprouts.

[Faithfree]

Carry tennis racquet, that'll fix the blighters.

[JimC]

I think they should mobilise the entire PLA...

Good training opportunity for leadership in small squads...

...which adds the insult of noxious wasp flatulence to the injury of necrotising venom...
