    Are you allowed to make up your own terminology like that?

    Isn't all terminology made up? 😂

    Isn’t that how new words get added to the dictionary?

    Do you think if I shortened it to “book o’ word ‘lings” that it would catch on faster?

    Couldn’t you guess that since Google came around, the need for even the word “thesaurus“ has decreased? Should we instead think of another word for synonym? Is that a type of inception?

    Wouldn't it be best to avoid that area until winter when you can knock the nest down?

    Bald faced hornets as opposed to bearded hornets? 😂
    Isn't any hornet, bald or not, something to stay away from?

    Does that include the Fullerton College hornets?

    You mean like... Fred, Ben, Alphonse, Jeremiah? (Aren't I assuming they're all male?)

    Aren't they more likely to be female hornets?
  • srazamora
    srazamora Posts: 4,500 Member
    Why would they be more likely to be female?
  • AdahPotatah2024

    Aren't male hornets rare and more docile according to Wikipedia?

    Since all biting mosquitoes are female, why not all stinging hornets?
  • srazamora
    srazamora Posts: 4,500 Member
    What do the male mosquitoes do with all their time then??
  • paperpudding
    paperpudding Posts: 9,282 Member
    Do they have any time after their heads are bitten off?

    Or is that praying mantises?
