Bees are venomous not poisonous.

Where's my golden star?

True. Everyone knows car thiefs enjoy a nice bee snack. Venemous bees arent good enough, they need to be poisonous too now. We really are ignoring geneva conventions these days.

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

Bees are only venomous if they sting you.

But if you are eating delicious bee snacks out of a stolen purse, you'd need them to be poisoned to hurt the thief.

edit I just realized Zulu made the same comment I did, like 2 hours earlier. Fuck, now I look like a copy and paste bot.

[–] Exusia@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

I showed up here to make this joke too,haha

[–] lividweasel@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Username checks out? 😉

Eh I have not tried lately, idk

[–] DannyMac@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Would the bees be poisonous if one ingested a purse full of bees full of sting venom?

[–] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

No. You still need to get stung in your mouth or throat, and that's venom. You can eat bees til the cows come home. I wouldn't eat the purse though.

You can eat bees til the cows come

As far as ways to pass the time while waiting for livestock goes, it's not the MOST conventional, but I guess we all need at least one hobby 🤷

[–] supergrizzlybear@pawb.social 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

if you bite it and you die then its poisonous

if it bites you and you die then its venomous

so yeah i suppose it would

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 days ago

You don't have to die for it to be either.

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Then you are using the wrong Bee's not our fault you don't have degree in Bio-engineering.

You don't need to be a rocket surgeon to know bees aren't poisonous, they're venomous

[–] Soulphite@reddthat.com 1 points 3 days ago

How do you know for certain that the bee isn't coated in poison? Perhaps said bees wallowed in poison ivy effectively coating themselves in the leaves poisonous oil? We can't assume, you know what they say about assumptions?

[–] Ach@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

You don't actually know that. Perhaps they marinaded the bees in cyanide hoping the burglar would eat them.
