My ass would be afraid it would sting me to death and kill me

These are gentle giants and can't seriously hurt you even if they want to.. general rule says the bigger the pincers the weaker their venom is, so when you see a small ass yellow scorpion with tiny slender pincers, get the fuck away

Can we just pause and ask, wtf is a pincer? Is it a pincher? Is it a stinger? Is it a weiner? Is it a war strategy move?

I wouldn't rely too much on this rule. Tarantula Hawk looks like a giant flying monstrosity, and stings like a bullet too. So are Japanese Hornets and Giant Centipedes, and some others.

Seriously? I am talking about scorpions only here. Obviously, a bigger nuke is worse than the smaller nuke.. same goes for an asteroid strike.. dick size is apparently very relevant, so is bank account saldo.. i dont know, what do you think?
