Yep. As a kid I was seriously interested in etymology and wanted to mount one on a pin just to show it off. After a few encounters and attempts that want wrong I gave up.

It's just, they are tough and tenacious, they got that long abdomen that swivels around to get that stinger in and I seriously lacked skills.
