It’s always good to learn that your friends are assholes.

When you’re a kid, the idea of a “spitball” is pretty ubiquitous, even if you never saw one in the wild. For some reason, kids of yore had an obsession with balling up a slip of paper, soaking it with saliva, then shooting it at others (this is also the time when lead paint was prominent, so we can’t judge them for many of their decisions).

Even though spitballs made a lasting impact on the media, you don’t really see them much in the modern day. Instead, what we’re seeing now is much, much crueler — wasps launched through straws.
