Yellow jackets are devil spawn and you'll never be able to drink root beer or Dr. Pepper in peace when they're within smelling distance of it :argh: They probably work for Obamacare given their evil efforts to prevent diabetes by way of horrible pain.

If they live in the walls of my house they stop being harmless and beneficial and become a risk of something to step/sit on in the middle of the night and thus need to die a horrible agonizing death.

I don't know how many of those there are in Bumfuck, Ohio. But if I ever have not wasps infesting my house I'll keep that in mind as an option.

Their larvae feed on meat too, which means outdoor barbecues are never safe in yellow jacket territory (my god do they love chicken). They can sting repeatedly without dying. They're just mean.

I like that the guy's takeaway from that story was "don't let your girlfriend tape up your helmet" and not "don't engage in melee combat with a swarm of stinging insects."

It certainly is and, as a human being in the 21st century, I want to make sure that when I'm on holidays my daily ablutions most resemble those of a hobo riding a boxcar. After all, you're on holidays, who needs hygiene?

I, too, love me some baking soda. It's the only thing that gets hair dye off my hands so I don't constantly look like I've given a handy to a smurf. And no one said you have to stop using soap or shampoo, guy, calm down.

Some lifehacks just push my buttons, especially ones like this which seem aggressively dumb. Like it seems that the only reason you would swap a bag of toiletries for a box of baking soda would be so that you could ostentatiously stand around rubbing baking soda into your various orifices waiting for people to ask you what the hell you're doing so you could tell them all about this amazing hack you discovered.

I do sometimes. Mostly I don't because my hair's dark as gently caress and it takes like three bleaches to get it light enough to take color.

I also oil paint a lot and baking soda is pretty great for cleaning up things that should not have oil paint on them.

I know a girl who takes baking soda home with her in her luggage every time she visits America (because she likes baking cookies and it is sometimes difficult to find in Europe), and it almost never arrives intact, as the TSA tears apart the box on its way out of the country assuming that it's a kilo of coke
