    No bee has ever stung me without cause, but I don’t have killer bees living here. I do wonder if bees often get falsely accused for wasp behavior, but idk.

      Bees leave you alone in my experience. And a bee killed a billionaire recently in the UK. So that’s something. (Flew into his throat white they were playing POLO apparently). Gonna say that was an accident, or a Kamikabee

        I agree, but I’ve been stung by a wasp that decided it was angry at me for moving my head when it decided to fly an inch from my face and hover around for a minute for an ocular pat down

        Wasps are assholes

          Agreed, but let’s be honest. If someone told you that you could sting a giant and piss him off for fun and not die, many of us would give it a try. If bees know they’ll die, probably want to avoid it.
