The Waitabits is a science fiction short story by Eric Frank Russell. Like the stories in his collection The Great Explosion, it tells of an encounter between a mighty spaceship from Earth wishing to carve out an empire, and a planet whose inhabitants frustrate that wish. The Great Explosion dealt with oddball human societies. The inhabitants here are not human and very odd by human standards.
