Hm...for all this killing that supposed to be happening in this thread, all we have is a pretty boring bunch.

Bees are a social insect, like ants and termites. To me they've always been fascinating because left alone all fertilized eggs develop into sterile females. They need hormonal stimulation to develop into fertile females. This is provided by feeding the larvae royal jelly.
Drones like Reddy up here develop from unfertilized eggs.

I don't know if I'd want to be a bee. Male bees just hang around looking bored then they all go chasing after some queen so they can have sex. None of them really benefits from it. It's like living in a gay bar.

I heard Everyday Girl had the perfect opportunity to shoot Red Bee right up his stinger - how come she went PG-13 instead of rated R?

'Cause that's what heroes do, silly. Great-Uncle Space Ranger would be spinning in his grave if I killed someone in his name. He always found a way to do the right thing and he expected me to do the same thing.

You're absolutely right, Ev-Girl - and what you did, i now realise, made a whole lot of sense... It would have turned you into another "Willow" had you gone through with bumping off the Red Bee...

Mmm, this thread's still alive? Sadness... and here I'd had such hope that the Red Bee would put it out of its misery.

No villain (aside from myself of course) could possibly bring redemption to this thread by killing it.
The Buddhists amongst us believe that this thread is indeed bound for an easy go of it in its next incarnation having suffered so heinously in this one.

I am nominally a Buddhist of the meat-eating, alcohol-consuming, bug-stomping, gambling, non-meditating variety.
Often when I use the footpath near the local Catholic high school, I observe to see who can fail in living up to their nominal religion more. It's a close call between moi and some of those hedonistic teenagers.

Okay, now we're talking religion. I think we've already done politics. I can only think of one other "forbidden" subject, so here goes:
Are you aware that the Great Pumpkin rises out of the most sincere pumpkin patch on Halloween night and flies through the air to bring toys to all the good children in the world?

There is no such thing as the great pumpkin. The belief that he brings toys is a lie perpetuated by retailers on a unsuspecting public. They wish to increase commerce in the early fall period. In general Hallmark Holidays are sucky excuses to spend money. Let me list them now.

They aren't holidays. If I don't get the day off work, they aren't holidays.

I would post something snarky but I will refrain from cynicism today because it is Canadian Thanksgiving.
Ie. I promise that I will make no smart remarks about politics/politicians, the machinations of marketers or how stupid I think people are in general. Now excuse me, I decided to make a turkey after-all, though it's just me this year.

Ohmygod, you cooked yourself? Or is making a turkey one of those wierd sexual references that I haven't learned yet?

I've begun dreading leap years. We have our presidential elections here in the States in leap years. Those are becoming quite painful.

I have been remiss in my duties to this thread. I promise to honour my pledge to win this competition.
Do elections really end in the States? Seems when I watch TV, there's always some inane ad for a judge election or county prosecutor or sheriff. How novel, elected judges and prosecutors.

Elected judges are not universal. It varies from state to state. I think it's kinda dumb myself. Then again, most US politicians are pretty dumb. Here in Houston, we have a city election (mayor and council) every odd-numbered year. Add that to the gubernatorial, congressional and presidential elections and we have one every November.

I love reading those stories about Boss Tweed in Tammany Hall and Richard Daly in Chicago etc. Now those boys could rig an election.
