I was expecting that they would catch the house on fire. Remember, they didn't want to spend any money on spray, so they used up $20 worth of gas instead. And wiped out a swing set while they were at it.
Yeah, that was pretty dumb. I mean, the bees weren't bothering anybody, the kids were inside, and it's obvious the guys didn't really care if they ever used the swingset again... I would have just left them alone for a day or so, they probably would have gone somewhere else.
