    Yep. I have F’ing nests EVERYWHERE around our property. Had over 20 something Yellowjacket nests in my house eves last year. Always end up running an in-ground over with my tractor - and have to pray I can outrun em.
    I think I posted a video on here last year of me unloading 75+ 12G rounds in a nest off my back porch. Threw in some buckshot and game over.

    Really don’t like finding the nests the hard way though. :(
    I’m right on the edge of the Columbia River in WA - I’d assume their perfect path of destruction from the WuHuFlu country.

    Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck that. The video where that dude gets bit by a bullet ant is pretty gnarly if you're bored though.

    Not so much no.

    Great whites aren’t too common here, incredibly rare in fact and none have attacked anyone that I’m aware of. The tiger sharks however will fuck some people up generally on Maui.

    Tsunamis, not really, I mean in the last several decades we had one that was a foot high. It was rather amusing to watch that ripple come in.

    All but one of the volcanoes is extinct. Our volcano is a shield volcano so it’s pretty tame and mostly dribbles lava all over itself. You can walk right up to the flows in fact.

    We have no gun rights though...you got me there. You can’t go anywhere with a firearm except to the range or a gunsmith. If you leave your firearm at home and have a clip in the car with a single cartridge in it that’s considering transporting a loaded weapon.

    You can’t lend your hand gun to a friend but you can lend a rifle. It’s pretty crazy.

    You are required to have been put in mortal danger before reacting to a threat in your OWN home.


    Most of what you have to worry about here are the two legged animals. We have one of the most corrupt police forces and governments in the country. It’s impressively bad. https://www.google.com/amp/s/abcnew...wer-couple-convicted-plot-hide-fraud-64008862

    https://www.civilbeat.org/2016/04/survey-says-hawaii-is-corrupt/

    But the weather is nice and we don’t have giant fucking wasps or snakes or any of that nonsense.

    I will take the wasps, snakes, and any of that nonsense over corruption, bad cops, and no gun rights. But that's just me. Hawaii is nice to visit though.

    One of those things would make a real mess on the face shield of a motorcycle helmet at 80mph

    Especially if it hit and then the stinger hit you in the face or got in your helmet.

    I put my helmet on at a gas station with a wasp in it once. That was a really bad afternoon. Never had one get in while plugging along though.

    I hear ya. I guess there's good and bad no matter the weather and paradise. I lived at Tripler Army Base as a teeny little kid in the late 60's and early 70's when my Dad was drafted during the Vietnam War. I don't remember much, but I do remember going to the beach all the time. I understand the big island of Hawaii was invaded by the non-native little coqui frogs from Puerto Rico, and that their loud night time chirps are driving the locals crazy and keeping them awake at night. I'm Puerto Rican and even lived in Puerto Rico as a kid (moved after my Dad got out of the Army) and remember fondly those little coqui frogs. Hopefully Hawaii won't get the murder hornets. Still don't know how Hawaii was able to escape Asian Tiger mosquitoes that carry Dengue, Chikungunya, Zika and West Nile virus, but I guess they're doing something right to keep those out!

    I have a few Puerto Rican friends and have visited Puerto Rico. I actually like the coqui frogs. They put me to sleep and I slept very well in Puerto Rico because of them. It was like listening to white noise for sleep.

    Everyone should stay home or in a bubble. Everything is so scary these days. Last I checked thousands of people die in a vehicle accident a day buy yet millions of people still do it. Skin cancer is a thing yet people go out in the sun everyday. I could go on and on.

    Hopefully this thread is a joke. Probably not, way too many drinking that media koolaid. Oh yeah!

    Crap.

    I'm going to go take a bath in hand sanitizer and wear 50 masks till this passes. I would use some TP but I used it to TP the whole neighborhood last weekend. Made sure to do it after it rained so the TP would be unusable unless you took time to dry it.
