The hubris of locality.
Your common names are different from mine.
There are thousands of species of the damn things.
My paper wasps make nests in the eves and are irritable.
Next you'll be telling me your pronunciation of tomato is the correct one.
But on those hornets? You're flat-out wrong.
When I was in the Army I was a radar repairman. The hornets built nests
in the towers. I'd sometimes I'd wait 30 minutes on a tower waiting for a
repair confirmation with a hornet nest 10 feet away. They're 1.25 inches
of scary, but they never stung any of us.
