I live a hundred or so feet from a massive amount of beehives and I love those fuckers so I may be prejudiced. But like if you can't outrun some bugs why are you having offspring? You have bad survival instincts. Your offsprings gonna suck. E: The dog probably doesn't suck as bad. If I was that dude I'd probably save the dog-- clearly the most productive family member-- and leave Miss Intimacy Issues outside while I made some food in peace and quiet too.

Wasps (or "dump bees" as they are more technically known) are loving awful but do you really need to hide for an hour from them and wait for an emergency extermination swat team? I've had a couple nest accidents and they've generally forgotten about the whole thing 5-10 min later, or at least aren't in "sting the gently caress out of anything you can see" mode anymore. I just can't believe the dude LOCKED the door. Like was he afraid the wasps were going to swarm together into a big cartoon hand and open the door?

I just scrolled past a picture of them too, when I was looking for that picture (hence the Pick's Choice thread), and if I'd realized I was going to need it I could have grabbed it as I scrolled though!

Where I live, which is not the US, most external doors don't have knobs. So, if the door shuts you need a key to get in no matter what. So if it's something like that, well, I dunno that's better than DELIBERATELY locking the door. Maybe he just wanted all of them to suffer because they ruined his life.

Just to be clear I think they are both giant retard babies for being scared of wasps. Wasps are not an emergency, and being afraid of them once you are no longer a child means you are a weakling and deserve your lovely life of fear. I weep for their children, who will have to be raised by these idiots, despite the fact that said children are clearly of defective genetic stock.

Y'all are acting like huge swaths of people don't have fear of wasps/bees/hornets and she doesn't have two infants to worry about in the process. Like okay yeah sure, if you're not allergic it's going to take a fuckton of stings to send a fully grown adult into anaphylaxis but that's probably not a chance you want to take with babies, especially when you have no phone on hand and your idiot husband locks you out of the house.

The plus side is a baby will be a lot less likely to have an allergic response since you have to be exposed to something at least once before you can have an allergic reaction to it, but a 1 year old is small enough that it'd take less stings to cause actual complications. It wouldn't be a big deal if she didn't end up locked out of the house by her dumb husband.

I was locked in my laundry area which was outside but walled in (like, almost like part of the house but with no roof). I actually don't remember how I got back in. I think it's a security thing? Lots of thefts/home invasions, etc. I don't know if it helps. I've kind of stopped asking "why" about the things I encounter here that don't make sense to me.

https://youtu.be/77xoCVhrlPk Gotta love it when people are faced with a potential hazard and react in the absolute worst possible way in front of everyone. And I think the only obstacle was Pick being Catholic, if she was Protestant the supervillain gimmick would write itself. The physical deformity, the spite, the obsession... But you can't be a Catholic supervillain, at least without being ordained at the very least. You can be a self-loathing superhero who dresses like a demon, looks like a demon or is a demon, though.

The wife is a big dumb baby, but the husband is clearly a bigger, dumber baby. First of all if you are dumb enough to actually be afraid and not just avoid, you save the kids before the pet. Secondly, locking them all out is a dick move, and also a dumb one because it isn't like they are all going to die and he won't have to face someone who is really pissed off at his cowardly actions.

A friend and I once accidentally disturbed a wasp or hornet nest. We ran screaming in terror but I made it to the sliding door first, shut it and locked it. I am a complete coward just like the husband. Counterpoint, my friend and I were both seven years old.
