WHERE
ARE
THE
WASPS?!

(there where no wasps found in and around the nest, according to the article)

Easy to find them with a Geiger counter.

Wasps found a way to become worse.

Wait, radioactive wasps or radioactive W.A.S.P.s? I don't know which one would be worse.

What happens if they bite you?

[-] salty_chief@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

One of two outcomes. You gain super human ability or you just decay slowly from radiation poisoning. My money is on the later. Oh, you also are cool at parties now because your eyes glow in the dark.

Oh sick, I was barely even scared but now, with radioactive wasps...

[-] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Wait they spray it with bug killer, even though it had radiation levels 10 times normal limit? Look folks if wasp had been alive in that thing I doubt wasp spray would have killed them.
