I thought it was getting quite educational - crumpets, bees, toast, hornets, newts...

I think the thing with de-runnied hunny is you have to make sure you get all the crystals or it just starts over again. Something is tickling my mind about a bit of water being a good idea

Yes - I think honey is essentially a supersaturated sugar solution. Any small crystals will nucleate regrowth, but diluting a bit will make it less saturated and so less liable to crystallise.

I have some lovely raw polish forest honey in my cupboard. It's not the runny sort though. I spread it on my toast.

The dead wasp on the rug did win because it turned out not to be dead. Tricksey wasp.

It that wasn't a fair fight. I think a dead wasp could have won.

I suppose they deleted the thread because we were too mean to the misogynist OP.

And fudge is evil. Only surpassed in boakiness by tablet.

So why was that thread pulled? Has the mod policy shifted from "don't be nasty to trans activists, they may threaten our advertisers" to "don't be nasty to random sexist blokes who show up to troll either"?

I guess there is a significant overlap.

I've been stung by an Hornet (not a euphemism) in Spain.
Is this relevant or should I get my coat?

Maple syrup rules! Plus trees are more huggable than bees. True fact.

Plus, it's very important you eat it quickly, or it grows this floating mould which the internet is unhelpful about the safety of (as I discovered when I peered into the kirkland maple syrup jug in the fridge once....)

I think the thing with de-runnied hunny is you have to make sure you get all the crystals or it just starts over again. Something is tickling my mind about a bit of water being a good idea, because, as I know from fudge making, it's water content that determines whether it'll crystalise or not.

My mind was rocked by leaf-cutter bees - which I didn't even know existed until I was nearly 30 and googled why I had all these perfect cutouts on my plants, and then I found one living in a burrow in my tomatoes.

No, threads started by 'random sexist blokes who show up to troll' have always been liable to be pulled, since way before TRAs were around.

I learnt about the turd harvest, I tried to forget the turd harvest, I finally managed to go about my day without thinking any more about the turd harvest.... And now it's a fresh reminder about the turd harvest.

Not that people were being nasty, unless you interpret "nasty" to mean "not catering to the poor dear's every delusion of competency".

He was also better edumacated with a degree and typing speed of 100wpm. He was unable to clarify further although it did look as if it were going to be a BSc in Chemical Compounds from the University of Life.

Place marking for later. I tried to request it was left up but it got zapped pretty sharpish :(

Horse flies make horseradish.

Dagnamit!

Having clearly started something with the crumpet comment I been offline for a couple of hours and now I will never know the scintillating heights that the subsequent bun and other assorted bread products fight reached.

At least we'll always have bees

NannyOggsKnickers · 22/04/2018 19:32

UpstartCrow He’s not going for it. He maintains it’s wasps. He did point out that Japanese Hornets make wasabi.

UpstartCrow · 22/04/2018 19:25

NannyOggsKnickers Tell your DP I have it on good authority that Japanese Hornets make Marmite.

thebewilderness · 22/04/2018 19:20

He came to mansplain the ways in which equality is bad for women like the one he saw on TV once.
He did not understand why the women would not discuss his very important facts with him but therefore he wins by default.
Meanwhile you were all brilliant and I adorable you.

Honey is bee boak?

UpstartCrow

DH has urged me to post to tell you that wasp make wasp honey aka Marmite.

He has it on porridge instead of what he refers to a bee honey. Boak. Shock

FFS. (Fish Finger Sandwich) - even better if it's actually a Waitrose breaded plaice fillet instead of FFs.

Nope: coconuts is sloth eggs.
