Scorpions are common in some parts of Massachusetts

I've never heard of such a thing. Lived here for 65 years.

Scorpions in an airport. At least they aren’t in airplanes yet.

I’m ok with the scorpions if they’ll kill the Asian Tiger Mosquitoes

“Woman rushed to hospital after being attacked by terrifying creature at Boston airport”

Probably saw a Trump supporter and took it as an attack. I suspect she’s never seen one, given where she is.

I thought the article was describing the Mayor of Boston.

This is Spirit Airlines. This just means she didn’t pay for the dangerous-creature-free baggage movement.

I picked up what I thought was a small maple leaf seed in the house last year. When it stung me I realized it was a small scorpion. It felt like a wasp sting. Must wear glasses when working around the house.

I had one latch onto my hair as I leaned over sink toward medicine cabinet. Thankfully not stung.

Not so lucky another time, I moved my leg while sleeping and got stung by a baby scorpion. Thankfully only like a bad bee sting, ice helped, but could not sleep the rest of night wondering how it got under covers in my bed.

I see that the media carefully avoids mentioning the color of the scorpion. I think we all know what that means. If the scorpion had been white, they would have put that in the story.
