earlier i was in my room, sitting in bed watching celebrity poker and i just happened to look over and see a wasp as big as my face on my window. i have a phobia of insects. flying stinging ones in particular. so i freaked out and ran away and shut the door behind me like the scared little girl that i am.
this happened a while ago so i have no idea where it is in my room right now. i've been thinking about what i should do to get rid of it all day and then i was like "duh, ask the internet"
so should i
a) wait for my mom to get home and let her kill it
b) try to kill it myself (i really don't like this choice)
c) avoid my room for a couple of days and hope it dies on its own
i hope i don't have to resort to c but i'd rather do that than b. and no, setting it free is not a choice because all wasps deserve a painful death.

I always just wait for them to die (or almost die, so they're way slow and I can get them with the flyswatter), but they never get trapped in my room... so I'll vote A too.

First I would go to this website:
http://www.prosprayer.com/
Then I would order this product (with your mom's credit card):
Next, I would dress up like this to trick the wasp into thinking you're just a harmless little bee girl:
Then I would pick option A.

I suggest B, conquer yr fear!
...Unless it was a really big wasp, then you will have to burn the house down, just in case.

JBFEERWERC gave me an idea! Buy this instead. Actually, buy that thing he posted AND this:

before you grab the matches, suggest you find this album and play track 1 as loud as you can.
then wander in to your room with a heavy magazine for cover, open all the windows and shoo the wasp out.

Audio courage???
P, next time you have a wasp, call me and I'll swat it down with 0% fear.
As long as I can call you if I see a roach (when I will have 100% fear.)

Get a shoe in one hand and a can of Raid in the other hand and show that wasp who's boss!

I think we should just let the wasp die of natural causes. What kind of life expectancy does a wasp have anyway - 2 days?
