There should be a defacto gay tag on these videos because clearly, she is.

also, the video is mirror-image, except for the stinger at the end? why?

But it's drunk cooking, not gay cooking ?!?

Wow, even in the death throws, that stinger on the wasp is alarming.

@ant have you seen this yet? You rule!! Bravery! Commitment! Loyalty!
True ant qualities.


But he could had used his stinger and mandibles! Were are his antennae and wings?

Whereas nation states where religion is part of the law of the land. Well look at those nations. These are isolated states that have remained in a development vacuum but got rich off selling oil. There is no freedom of speech or democracy in those states. The very fact that the first world deals with say OPEC allows the theocracy to be sustained in those nations.

Religion was a form of government for most of Europe. Then we had the enlightenment, democracy, revolution, kings, wars, history and so on. Religious denominations in Europe are now rapidly fading. This process never occured in the Middle East. Suddenly they have BILLIONS to spend on spreading their 'faith' as a form of government intervention. Saudi Arabia building schools in Pakistan that eventually created the Taliban was not an act of religious domination but a ham fisted attempt at geopolitics via religious doctrine. Because for some fucking reason the Saudis believed the Taliban would actually listen to them or something LOL. (Is this of course ignoring specific political issues of the time, USSR, evil empire, Regean, cold war, US allies with Saudi Arabia, fighting proxy wars, stinger missiles, Charlie Wilson and so on).

Saudi Arabia is cool because its such a fucking relic of government policy they have little room for any type of social policy because that is dictat by Religion. Thus their policies stem from it. They are like evil but religiously ahaha so they just fund fundamentalists everywhere thinking it will give them political clout and power when in reality it backfires. Kinda like this US thing where it's like FREEDOM FOR ALL... THROUGH FUCKING DAISY CUTTERS. To Save Iraq We have to destroy it. To save Afghanistan. We have to keep sending troops for a dubious objective. Oh wait let's pull out now. etc.

Fundamentally we have to appreciate the fact that religion is but a theory of the that explained things prior to science. With the rise of science, it tried to fight it. Finally slowly it's either merging or being eliminated or reconstituted in new ideological belief sets.

What I mean to say is that it's only through the evolution of man, knowledge and ideas that humanity has reached a point where it starts to doubt a very flawed perception of reality. First gods were manifest everywhere. Then they were nature. Then they are ghosts. Now we are supposed to believe or have faith.

Those of a stronger mental make up could possibly accept that we live and die and that is the end. Others cling to religion because it is safe. Others believe in living eternally through genes, about the only thing we consistently carry on through time.

Time will see the end of man man religions, into new constructs of stupidity, because science still, while providing much of the answers lacks many fundamental resolutions for most issues at the core of religious belief. Time will tell us all. But so far so good.

How did Christianity get to Europe? Conquest. To the Americas? Conquest and colonisation. To Africa? Colonisation, slave trade. To Australasia? Colonisation. Does that mean that these means have been taking place all the way 'till now? Of course not. After a few generations of growing up with the imposed religion, you forget it was imposed in the first place. Unless you were "cleansed", then there are no next generations.
Same story with Islam. Only eventual difference: violent conquest/conversion is directly condoned, one could even say "ordained", by the holy text (e.g. 2:191-3/2:216); oh, and the prophet was also a tribal leader and war general, unlike the possibly fictional Jeebs of the Christians.
I'm not saying people don't convert, just that the majority of religion's spread is through breeding and childhood indoctrination, and that the origins of the desert monotheisms' spread (especially Christianity and Islam) was conquest and colonisation so your original comment does not seem to be making any relevant point.
edit: add to that the continual use of majority pressure and intimidation, especially when religion is part of a country's legal and political system.
>> ^Farhad2000:
Naa. Islam reached 1 billion in the 21st century.
The assumption you are making is that it's been spreading at the knife edge from what the Moor times?
>> ^hpqp:
Uh, you do know that more often than not it was spread, like Christianity, at the edge of the sword, right? Conquest, colonisation, slave trade, same old same old.
>> ^Farhad2000:
Furthermore people forget that Islam represents 22% of world population. Much of it not in the Middle East. If the religion was so shit it wouldn't have taken every other religion out there.

was this after the stinger was removed?


I'm not positive, but I believe this is a male. They do not have stingers.

edit: Nope, definitely a female.

was this after the stinger was removed?

I'm guessing it is the same as with wasps, bees and bumblebees as they can sting you even while they are decomposing if you touch the stinger, it "shoots" out and stings you. Reflex like actions even while dead...

Did you know that ants are decedents of wasps!? They inherit their non-fatal stinger from them...unlike bees. Bees are interesting, I don't know who their closest relative is....wiki powers activate

CRIKY LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT STIGER!


I'm assuming you mean "stinger"? Tasteless joke fail.

More info on the Stinger. Looks like Pontiac was ahead of their time on this one. Looks like a prototype of the Subaru Outback, which didn't come out until 1995.

You don't need to go overseas to find flying insects this big with a stinger -

We've got these all over the Midwest, and they are intimidating as hell.
You beat me by 7 hours. This was the first thing I thought of after seeing this video. I remember seeing cicada killers on my grandparents' ranch and being thoroughly creeped out and fascinated by them.

It's pretty scary to think that that huge stinger and potent venom exist solely to mess up much larger animals like ourselves. Apparently it's not really needed for dealing with other insects, which they can simply chomp in half.
