Think of all the people with bee allergies who didn't get stung!

Still, not helping the whole Bees crises, is it? Given that their numbers are decreasing.

This. Even if you're badly allergic to bees, they are super important to the beecosystem and wonderful creatures in their own right.

Prffft, I can pollinate my own flowers thank you very much!
Bee honest, those pesky little creatures are annoying as hell!

I remembeer, when I was younger we went to get some ice cream on a hot summer day.
Problem was, there were bees all around. I got stung way too many times that day. Only positive about it was that I got a lot of ice cream toys that day, just to make me stop crying, lolz. Anyway, the point is, that I've hated bees ever since.

I love bees, particularly honeybees. They're lovely little things to be around, gentle and kind, only fighting back in self-defense. Wasps on the other hand are assholes.

Hmm, Bees don't tend to be aggressive, that's usually wasps, from my experience.

That may be true, but the fact remains that plants rely heavily on bees and like insects to germinate, in turn, plants are relied upon by other creatures as food. And other creatures rely upon said creatures in the food chain. At the end of the day, bees might be annoying and scary, but not having them could very easily disrupt how nature works.

That, and they make honey, which I find goes pretty well in some dishes.

Harpic, I think you misunderstand what Master means by 'aggressive'.

Seriously tho, I really feel for people with those kinds of allergies, particularly if they're severe ones. Heck, any kind of allergy for that matter.

I can sympathise with those who have allergies, but I don't go round tearing up plants because of my Hay Fever.

Try being allergic to one of the most widely used basic medicines aka paracetamol. Thank god that's my only known allergy but still.

I saw about that overturned bee truck on BBC and man that must have sucked. I don't like any bug that buzzes being near me especially since I got stung by a bumblebee as a kid but yeah the bee crisis sucks.

Paracetamol? Cheesus. :shock: I hope you don't get ill too often.

My most traumatic ex-bee-rience was stepping on a bee with bare feet as a kid. Hurt like a bitch, and, you know, that's a horrid way for any creature to go out.
