    I appreciate the joke, though let me do my autistic thing and say that Honeybees have a barbed stinger, and if they sting a thick-skinned mammal like a human, the barbed hook gets stuck as they try to escape. This doesn’t happen with arthropods, so they wouldn’t know. Plus bees are democratic, so if you got stung, it was in consensus and the will of many.
