[@PishTosh83]

I start out as a wafter, and if it doesn’t leave within 2,4 seconds, I run for dear life!

[@mesmerist777]

Smart man to access the situation and deal with it accordingly. Screamers / Panickers make me nervous, when they scream and wave their limbs all over cause the bees / wasps more angry and aggressive.

[@alexle4917]

I see a bee like 2 metres away from me and run away

[@yehboisaturn3872]

mesmerist777 Cheers grandad for the analogy on bees movements

[@valentinalujan3039]

Amen!!!

[@dreamhobbiz]

I admire comedians like Michael. How the hell they can come up with hours of material just blows my mind. You must have a good memory to remember all the jokes and stories you want to tell for at least 2 hours, not to mention having great stage presence as well. When i am facing an audience, my mind goes completely blank. Salute to all comedians! 😍

[@cf7571]

I agree with you -- but he's not memorising 2 hours of material raw. There are screens at the front of the stage where he can read off the next story, some key lines, etc. Still impressive, just a little more human.

[@gummygoo2]

I love how he just threw himself on the floor for the picnic bit 🤣🤣

[@hibanoor7228]

How he manages to make the most mundane situations so utterly hilarious.. I can't get over it

[@-Tidgy]

If it's a wasp I panic, if it's a bee I just waft it away gently 😁

[@HeadDetectiveLassie]

I can never tell the difference between a bee, wasp, or hornet when I'm in the moment. - Alternates between still and panicking.

[@Chris-hp9be]

How do you know the difference.? If its buzzing it can sting, that is my motto

[@-Tidgy]

@@Chris-hp9be bees are good, they never sting unless they need to. If someone came into your home you'd want to attack them, same out in the street, if someone attacked or scared you you'd want to fight back, it's just their self defence. Hornets and wasps on the other hand...

[@martinen.5025]

Wasps are longish, bees are fat and rounder..Honey bees are PHONOMINALLY beautiful.. late one summer's evening, something was buzzing around the table lamp..cats really interested in it...took a look with the magnifying glass...OMG..soo beautiful.. stunningly so.

[@Abigail-wz6be]

I almost died laughing, that last one is so accurate it’s unreal

[@propio2957]

I'm a stay-stiller and I've never gotten stung by anything in my life.

[@collinslfc]

You have to be careful though as a wasp may land on your face.

[@propio2957]

@@collinslfc it's happened. They really just kinda hang out for a second, then go away. I should add that once the bee/wasp vacates the immediate area, I also usually walk away before it comes back

Same here, I’m a stay-stiller and I’ve never gotten stung by anything. I was kinda raised to be a stay-stiller. My dad is ... a wafter/ murder, so every time I tell him/ told him there was awaited near by he killed it, an I regret saying anything..... The scariest Mae then with a wasp was when it was on my face, it was climbing on my EYE..! I was too afraid to move ( When Im scared I don’t run around, I stay still and can’t move.... ) .... but my god that was scary... 😖

[@og87]

Agreed and Same.

[@elinahadzhimincheva8495]

Oh my gosh, Michael is the best!!! 🤭😍 Not a single bad thought can survive his sense of humor. 😂😂 So creative and intelligent, amazing. 🤩

[@dalmamirabal7446]

Panicker, bigtime. Dont have a single thought about my bad knee, I run like the wind. And scream like a banshee. (if thats how you spell it)

[@luke-alex]

@@JaneDoe-ci3gj Is that because you're an unidentified corpse?

[@pixielove25]

I am also of the same kind. I can confirm that the single sight of bees and wasps can make you forget any bodily pain and also make you discover vocal cords you never knew you had.

Very creative comedy from Michael. All the family can enjoy. He is right about the wasps. Many a good picnic has been ruined by wasps, they are pesky. Tip: put a mound of jam a few meters away from your spread. They will diverge on the jam and leave you alone. Tried it, it works!

[@duanetin2x]

The “Total Panickers” are my friends..... Their screams are the worst when they encounter them. However, it is quite funny to watch them struggle when they see a tiny little bug such as an ant. an A N T !!!

[@lorawiese5596]

I will be a paniker if I see an ant. Every time I get bit by an ant I wind up with staph (4 times so far). Seldom picnic and uf I do,then I keep a constant vigil and keep moving

[@mmmc5122]

Wafter here! 😂😄

[@MasalaMan]

In my life I've gone from a panicker to a stay-stiller to a wafter. I feel very proud of myself.

[@indirasmets4966]

I am immediately a panicker, doesn't matter where I am or who's there to see me, I run for my life and scream for help xD

[@DanoiVN]

Oh come on, you didn’t include the part where he talks about being promoted from a stay still-er to a panicker? Anyway, brilliant material, loved the clip :)

[@melodie-allynbenezra8956]

I am now imagining Michael in conversation with Mr. Knightly from Jane Austen's "Emma." "If you want to eat, you should just stay at home." "Yes. The dining room is the only civilized place for dining." "Agreed. So... Are you a wafter, a stay-stiller, or a panicker?" "Dear man... Nothing panics me. So... Does it matter?" "... I can't say that it does. I'm just curious. Shall we take this party back inside?"

[@strawberriesandcandy]

Melodie-Allyn BenEzra I want this fanfiction

[@sourdemon]

I'm sometimes the stay-stiller and sometimes the panicker

[@tiffariff]

Only a panicked when there's that one person who's trying to kill it, or "waft it" away not.listening to my usual stay still strate and then it starts flying crazy around us. Cause I'm not GETTING BIT FOR YOUR MISTAKE.ive had a yellow jacket on my hand for half and hour once...couldn't move my hand-but could walk around- didn't get stung. Done the same when other stingers have landed on my head, leg and shirt, I have never to this day been stung except for once- my freinds decided to stay down a hornet nest above us eating lunch with hairspray and a lighter (wind didn't work), then a broom. The stay still strategy only works if they aren't already angry.

[@notareallin620]

@@tiffariff Haha. One day I was out with my friends at the pool when a wasp literally stuck itself to my wet thigh. I'm usually a stay stiller, but when it gets close, cue the panicked reactions. I become a violent wafter. One that hits the target 80% of the time. So I panicked and then made a swipe at my thigh. Scoop the wasp up and toss it across the pool all in one move. That wasn't the last time I've had a wasp stuck to me. I'm a bit wary of exposing wet skin outside now. Next thing you know there will be wasps clinging to my back.

[@debbiehenri345]

My son's a panicker in the extreme. It's hilarious, and is the only time I see him him actually animated past the 'yeah, fine,' computer-obsessed, sat at the desk 24-7 nerd that he is. We know when a wasp is in his room become he screams, flies out, and leaves me to cope. Michael forgot the beater. I stride in the boy's room and manage to end its existence with a few hearty blows of a newspaper (this is Scotland, and they are not rare). They live in harmony with my husband. Every year they set up home in his workshop, placidly fly over his head as they construct monster nests, and neither get in the way of each other.

The picnic graze ready man pose.. I never really thought about it before - next picnic I have I'll be sure to remember this!! 😉 😉 Lol 😂 😂

[@hatchingdraggon8073]

I'm a stay stiller. But once, whilst staying still and eating a jam sandwich, the wasp landed on my face. I continued to stay still whilst it made its way toward my mouth and attempted to burrow through my closed lips and into my mouth. In that moment, I became a wafter followed by immediate panic.

[@len17948]

Hahaaa it was going for the jam.

[@contr4dixion]

Yes....

[@clickbait007]

😰 I'm a wafter/exterminator. But anyone would panic at that point! Hope you were ok!?

[@nchia]

Michael is a great squealer.

[@klwl]

Hornets are NOT fun! Was on a field exercise and a platoon mate accidentally disturbed a nest. All we could do was RUN, as fast and as far as we could! No time to waft, stay still, or panic. Despite wearing a combat helmet, a few were able to fly into it from below and stung me on my scalp. Thought that I was fine, but ended up feeling weird/off and running a high fever that night and had to spend it in the medical bay...

[@debbiehenri345]

That might be American hornets? I'm not sure that any British ones do. We used to get a lot in my garden, but they never stung or threatened me.

[@klwl]

I am from Singapore, and am uncertain whether we also inherited hornets from our former colonist or imported any from the US? ;P

[@waywardgoddess1153]

He forgot one. Dodgers lol. Those people (like me at times) that just dodge their heads about looking totally bonkers. They tend to go hand in hand with wafters

[@8888-9]

[@Itspavi98]

Shit I’m either the wafter or having a total panic meltdown HAHAHA

[@peaceandlove6670]

Ps cos I’ve already put a comment... as a student, I once went on a picnic and yes, the wasps descended upon us. I took a swig of cola from a bottle not realizing that a wasp had fallen in. It stung me on the tongue but as the young medical student in our midst didn’t overly react, I did not get alarmed, just spat it out. Nausea and head ache followed but nothing worse, thankfully. Ever since, I’m very wary of wasps!

[@w.s.4634]

[@minniepop90]

I the Panic One. I cant..I would literally run for my life.

[@spacepisces9287]

minniepop90 me too, and it has worked so far! I’ve never been stung by a wasp. In the summer I met another person who panics! It was just me and her screaming at the wasp as it buzzed around the tables! We were both probably thinking the same thing : ARGGG NONONONO WASP ITS GONNA STING ME! Whilst the people we were with just sat there telling us to calm down and that it’s only a wasp.

[@ellabellabingbong08]

Total panickier here! I saw a wasp when I was walking down the pavement, I’m pretty I went faster than usain bolt 😂 My fight or flight gut came in, I chose flight 😂😑

[@og87]

Staying still is literally the only way to deal with any flying insect. It won’t harm you. It’s just interested in the smells. I agree with this so much (like he said) that once a bee fell asleep inside my ear. I just left it. It was tired. I was fine. It left eventually. We even gave it some sugar water for its troubles.

[@dans3.macabre]

Definitely a wafter 😂

[@MysteryGamerGirl07]

I was mildly creeped out when Michael sat down for the picnic bit, as I found I was sat exactly the same! (Edit: there is also my group of people when it comes to wasps: the people who let the wasp go about heir life, and you go about yours. One landed on my bag, and people were either yelling or saying that there was a wasp on my bag. I just moved on with my life. The wasp stayed on there for 3 hours, but I didn't mind. It just wanted a free ride XD)

[@emdee7744]

Agree. The blasted bees would land on the open soda can and then crawl inside for the sugary goodness. And balancing food and swatting and dodging persistent bees, then getting ants crawling around too, was ridiculous. I find no joy in picnics and haven't been on one in decades.

[@jammiestdodger]

Bees are like stay-stillers in insect form, they only sting if you get near them and would rather leave you alone. Flys are like the wafters, very cool and chill but would rather go about their day then focus on the ‘target’. And then there are wasps. These little buggars are the total and utter panickers. You don’t even do anything or go near them but they will go out of their way to sting you because they feel you have entered their personal space and irritated them.
