I never really liked it when sitcoms and other shows had a "musical" episode. Buffy, Ally McBeal, whatever.

... uhhh, not that I ever watched anything like Buffy or Ally McBeal...

I stopped off for a pack of cigs at 7-11 and the weather is nice enough so I got a Slurpee too. Then I stopped off for gas. I like to sip my Slurpee while I pump, so that's what I was doing. A bee decided to get all up in my shit, so I put the Slurpee down on the roof of my car, figuring it was liking the sugar from it. The bee was absolutely fascinated by me though, or something, because he wouldn't leave me alone! He landed on me a number of times. I kept flailing my arms, and eventually escalated to verbal half under the breath comments. Like, "Get the fuck out of here!" and "What the fuck, bee!?" Twice I had to take a good couple of steps away from my car, because he was all in my face. I ended up not pumping as much gas as I was gonna and just got out of there.

When arrived home guess who was waiting on my front porch? The bee! With a gun!
That's a crazy story, zig.

Jokes on you, I don't have a porch. I have a stoop!

I was about to pull the nozzle out of my car, the bee was hovering a few inches off the ground. I was about to stomp the life out of him, but I decided to just leave. That bee doesn't know how lucky he is. He can go on living, only to annoy the next customer at pump #8. He will tell tales of my compassion to bees everywhere. Years later, I will call on the bees which will get me out of a bind, perhaps saving my life.

No but for real, I did have the chance to stomp that bee but decided not to.

Read the first four MegaMan comics by Archies, very good adaption to the MegaMan series as the first four comics give an overview of the first MegaMan series. Can't wait for them to do a comic on MegaMan 2!

The only thing funnier than a man flailing his arms at a bee is when a woman walks into a spider web and goes bat shit insane trying to remove the web. In both cases no one sees the bee or the web, just someone completely losing their shit.

Seeing some dumbass trying to shove something that won't fit into a usps flat rate shipping box at the p.o is pretty funny too. I actually heard one patron curse the box, "God Damned box!" as if it were actually the boxes fault.
