    For those of you who asked what's next after all the COVID-19 issues disappear, apparently it's Murder Hornets.
    I thought this was a joke when I saw a meme on Facebook featuring Dr. Evil saying 'Release the Murder Hornets!', but apparently it's not. According to an article I read, gigantic (2-inch long) yellow Murder Hornets have made their way into the US from Asia and have the potential to kill humans.

    “Murder hornets” will be the name of countless high school garage bands next year.

    Or it would if high schoolers actually still formed garage bands.

    At least being that big we can use tennis rackets to fight them.

    #4 3 years ago

    I've seen a show years ago about them. They are very aggressive.

    #6 3 years ago

    At least you can see a murder Hornet coming after you compared to the virus.

    Seems like I have seen this movie before...

    Killer bees in 2013

    #8 3 years ago

    These are about as scary as those "africanized killer bees" that were supposed to take us out years ago.
    All hype

    It’s a murder hornet hoax !!

    #10 3 years ago

    They can grow up to 2 inches, and definitely look like they’re the muscle for some major bee monster. Not sure how common they are but I’m not trying to piss them off! Lol

    I like how a common (just not common in the US) animal that’s been studied for decades is a “hoax”.

    Also tornados are fake.

    Can't wait for the murder hornet pin!

    #13 3 years ago

    I'm old, the media was flogging African killer bees back in the late 70's

    Still waiting for them to show.

    The scary name comes from them taking out bees, not people. They aren't generally hostile to people any more than regular wasps are if you piss them off.

    Oh, the possibilities....But I’m afraid Hollywood would have to make the movie first. And what if not enough film assets were used in the pin? Or maybe we’ll only have to wait for one of the afore mentioned garage bands to make it big.

    #19 3 years ago

    Murder hornet moonshine ....
    I think I’ll pass on that !

    #20 3 years ago

    They have actually killed people, but they mostly destroy bee colonies and that is a real problem.

    I think they are actually the Zanti Misfits from the Outer Limits - they look a lot like 'em!

    Probably immune to it!

    80 people a year die from regular hornet stings each year and we don't shut down the country!

    Quoted from BobSacamano:

    They do occasionally shut down my patio though, which is bad enough.

    #28 3 years ago

    My wife is allergic to bee and wasp stings, we keep a can of raid around in case they show up on our patio.

    #29 3 years ago

    Are they shutting down the county?

    They will, remember good music is not dead it's just not on the radio.

    As long as those who are vulnerable stay inside (mice, toy poodles, small children and infants, honey bee colonies) I don't see any reason why the rest of us can't carry on as before.

    We can't allow the cure to be worse than the hornets!!!

    Also, we should look into injecting RAID right into the bloodstream, or perhaps somehow introducing low-level flame into the body - it'll wipe them out in a minute!

    Just stay 6 ft away from them and your good.
