Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I also eat Starburst (and Skittles. Not M&M's. A fruity thing?) by color. But instead of stopping, I divvy them all up and eat the remainders first. I think of this as hiding the evidence.

(Skittles, being smaller and more numerous, are eaten in identical color groups rather than one at a time in order. If the group is 2 yellow, 2 red, an orange and a purple, only the third yellow counts as an odd-skittle-out.)

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I have to sort M&Ms by color into equal amounts and then eat the extras. Then I eat them in reverse order of how much I like the color. Blues are always last.

How do you get rid of a wasps' nest?

We always used to just toss gasoline on them. It might be cheaper now to get some of the Wasp Spray that shoots like 15 feet. When they are gone (if they set up like in a crack or something, fill it with some foam filler or something.

That's my 2 cent anyway.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

How do you get rid of a wasps' nest?

We always just hosed them down. Hard water pressure to get them off the house then flood the thing. Give it some time and the wasps will either leave or drown then you can throw the nest away.

OMG my shoulder is so f'd up, it now hurts to take a deep breath. I think I really really truly need to schedule a deep tissue massage this week.

Hey I have a question for anyone with experience in such areas: How do you get rid of a wasps' nest?

Wait until evening, when they all go home, then spray the nest with the wasp spray that has an extra-far spray.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My dad always burned 'em during the annual burning of the tent catapillars, but there's probably a safer, less likely to set your house afire technique.

When I was a kid, I'd wait until winter (when the wasps here hibernating). Then every few weeks I'd fire a bb-gun into it a few dozen times. (My hope was that come spring, the survivors would realize it was time to move.)

I'm not sure if this method ever worked.
