Free = not on or in a holder of any kind.

My father has a very old mostly abandoned house in Mississippi that he's keeping because it was part of our families.  When my wife used the restroom there last summer she was stung by a wasp that was nesting in the free toilet paper roll.  This winter I went there to help clean up after the hurrican and noticed the the tp is now kept in a coffee can.

Ugh, wasps, I hate wasps...

Yellowjackets seem to always terrorize the homes I live in.

Back when I lived in Nassau County (On Long Island), there was a yellowjacket nest behind one of the corners in our porch, so we would find some flying around. My father had someone come exterminate the nest, and he closed up the hole he found in which they came out. I also remember my mother once found a dead yellow jacket in a hot dog bun in a package she had just opened.

Where I currently live now (Still on Long Island, just in a different county), yellowjackets like to nest in the shutters we cannot use. We try everything to make them go away, but they always seem to come back. Currently, it seems like there's a nest between the walls, and they have made a hole into my room. So, every now and then, whenever I hear this odd buzzing noise, I look by one of the windows and see one flying around, in which then I stay out of my room for awhile until the lack of food and warmth kills it. I've seen at least 6 yellowjackets flying around in my room since I've moved here.

I don't like bees, wasps, etc. either. Every year, they nest in our house. I've only seen one enter the house before, and luckily it was dead. I still got the willies. XO

There was a wasp on the bus once and I was jumping over seats to get away from it. XP

It was a huge bumblebee, and I freaked out. I was even younger then.

What a strange and unusual topic.. I voted in front, but we also like to keep it free too.

Bees are scary looking. Except for Charmy Bee. He's funny.

as this new poem I thought of would say,

always be good, love thy neighbor, honor thy mother and father,and position your toilet paper,
every day going to the bathroom is a trip, and about 4 times when mr. gingleberg makes his bean dip,
remember toilet paper runs out atleast twice a month, so roll the paper of the toilet over the front!
thank you.

I used to know someone who didn't use toilet paper.
