I've never been more cross about a thread being pulled.

The OP getting all hoity toity about the wimmin not answering his beautifully crafted, hand tooled, leather bound destruction of feminism (we're all jelly cos we're ugleh) and having educational discussions about tea and bees, was possibly the funniest thing ever.

Now... crumpet bees?

doctorcuntybollocks · 22/04/2018 18:52

Crumpet bees use crumpets as hives, the holes in the crumpet being used in the same way as the cells in honeycomb.

Also sloths hatch from coconuts.

There are a couple of Queen Bee crumpet cafes in Seattle, apparently 'The Queen Bee is dedicated to all strong, resourceful mothers and nurturing women. '

Sounds like our kind of place.

I think I just invented crumpet bees but they do sound delightful.

I got the impression he was at home powdering his nose - the rampant egotism seemed to increase as the night wore on.

Another thing the thread bought to light is the 'Spring turd harvest' that people with dogs in cold countries have to do, when the snow thaws and you have to pick up a winter's load of dog poo from across your garden.

But as this isn't a TAAT, I'll go back to bees...

Has anyone read Honeybee Democracy? It's an amazing book about how bees in a swarm are using consensus decision making to decide the location of their next hive.

“Put the jar in a bowl of hot water for about 15 mins to warm it up. Should sort it out.”

Who the hell has time for this in the 21st century?

Women do, as we are brilliant at multi-tasking Smile

And thanks AsAProfessionalFekko for letting me know it was deleted. I was searching, but couldn't remember what it was called.

I would have loved to learn about crumpet bees!Envy

See MNHQ, it was educational!

TotallyLibrarianPoo · 22/04/2018 17:55

Noooo, damn, I loved that thread. It was all tea, wasps, bunnies and turd harvesting. I came in at the end, but had to go to bed. So I missed being there in real time and missed the end tooAngry.

Poopy. Couldn't they just have pulled all his posts (they were boring anyway), and left all the brilliant lovely MNer posts?!

There was a 'late night tapper' who kindly came on board to tell all us girlz how to manage our careers, childcare and life in general.

They knew best because if their vast knowledge and experience (asking the girls in the office) and earning loadsamoney.

It was decided that crumpets bees are infinitely more interesting (need) and intelligent (crumpets) than the OP but the thread got pulled anyway.

I was so annoyed that thread was deleted. It was brilliant. Thank you for posting that picture showing the difference between bees, wasps and hornets. 😁

TotallyLibrarianPoo · 22/04/2018 17:41

Hmm something is missing today. Are we not allowed tea and nasty buzzy things? Can someone PM me to fill me in on missing details?

AngryAttackKittens · 22/04/2018 17:01

(Freaked me out so much I can't type, apparently.)

AngryAttackKittens · 22/04/2018 17:01

Argh, can you not warn people that there are going to be picture of horrible buzzy bitey things when the open a thread?

(Not the bees, bees are fine.)

Honeybees don't have to die when they sting you. If you can resist the reaction to swat them off, they can unscrew their sting;

I am vegan so don’t eat honey. I like agave nectar though.

LangCleg · 22/04/2018 16:59

I don't know about bees and such, but I'm still reeling from all the lack of butter on toast.

Not until you put that thought in my head, Smurf, but now I do...

Now I can't even manage proper sentences

boatyardblues · 22/04/2018 16:43

I smell fake news there, Upstart. Wasps make nests out of spit and wood cellulose. Their skills do not lie in a culinary direction.

SmurfOrTerff · 22/04/2018 16:43

Am I the only one who has Alison Moyet running around in my head ?

UpstartCrow · 22/04/2018 16:42

Bees make honey.
Wasps make mustard.
The WI make jam. #fact
