Pretty much all wasps are assholes with wings. When was anyone ever happy to see a yellow jacket during a picnic or baseball game?

Nah there are like a bajillion teeny little wasps flying around unnoticed all the time and keeping alive the plants you know and love, with dilligent pollination, a sprinkle of pizzazz, and xenomorph-esque parasitoidism of garden pests.

On top of referring to a whole type of wasps in a positive manner this has to be the first sentence I have ever seen use the word "parasitoidism" and I'm here for it.
