Costa Rican President Luis Guillermo Solís Rivera was giving a live television interview when something unexpected happened. You k**w, the kind of thing ** one prepares for when they're going over talking points and political messaging and where to get dinner after said interview.*
He swallowed a bug.*
It wasn't just any bug. It was a wasp. Yes, a wasp — an insect that has the ability to sting more than once (http://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/invertebrates/group/wasps/).

The president played it off rather gracefully. After saying, “I ate it, I ate a wasp,” he joked about how it tasted like "pure protein," and even suggested a video of the ordeal be sent to CNN. His response video went viral over the weekend (https://www.facebook.com/pzactual/videos/1533953503346467/), amassing more than 233,000 views.* Read more...
