I don't know why, but this grosses me out so much.

Yeah it looks really disgusting, like it's shitting soft teeth

oi you didn't need to put that image out there in the world

you could have just kept that to yourself

Nobody needed to share that picture of bees making wax, either. 😩 We've all had our share of trauma from this post.
