They get drunk and try to sting me in the fall. Do not like.

I really haven't had an issue with them. I've been stung a few times, but usually I know what I did wrong. Once or twice my dogs made them mad and they ended up going for me.

I used to have this storage shed that was full of wasp nests. I don't mean just a few small nests, the wall was literally covered with wasps. I could go in there to fetch something and as long as I moved slowly they didn't seem to care. (Though I did try to avoid the day time and visit them when it was pretty cool and they were torpid.) Never even had a close call with those wasps.

Rather rude to group them all together like that. If we're talking mud daubers or paper wasps, we're totally chill.

Ground-nesting yellowjackets get the boiling water and dish soap treatment in the dead of the night if they're in the yard. I've had too many cases of cleaning up yard debris and suddenly getting attacked by the little bastards to attempt peaceful coexistence.

I think you mean "assholes with wings."

They give me the hair raising creeps but I leave them alone unless they invade my house.
