Boy, they really decided to go dark with the Bee Movie sequel, huh?

The Snyder Cut

I thought "Another one??" but clicked through and saw this is from June 17, 2025.

Yeah I thought it was gonna be something like the whales taking out yatchs but bees taking out super rich polo players

That poor bee

The bee took one for the team.

With any luck, there's a hive of like-minded bees near the White House.

Story is from June 17th. I thought it sounded familiar since we all read about it when it actually happened.

Ig I'm one of today's lucky ~~10,000~~ 410

[-] 4grams@awful.systems 26 points 1 month ago

He deserves a goddamned posthumous award. There will never a death more ‘billionaire’ than this. I mean this is cartoon level, over the top, absurdist level perfection.

I mean tell me, if you just saw the headline “Man dies after swallowing a bee at a Polo match” that your reaction is anything but “I wonder which billionaire that was.”

[-] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

It gets even more comic-book villainous- he asked his mother to slap his then wife because she didn’t fit into a dress, while she was pregnant! What a good guy for not hitting a woman though, that’s totally the spirit of that advice.

Suddenly bees seem a bit, dare I say... Sexy

Excited for some guys grandchild to see the unclassified docs about the CIA shooting custom bees down people’s throats in 25 years

[-] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

According to Forbes, there are 3028 billionaires in the world as of April 1, 2025. A typical bee hive can have an average of 20,000 to 80,000 bees. I’m just saying that it only will take less than 4% of 1 hive to solve the world’s problems.

[-] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 19 points 1 month ago

This happened almost 2 months ago. I am pleased to see all the bee puns again though.

[-] merdaverse@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

That's so sad to hear! Rest in peace,Bee McBuzzington, hero of the People!

Even the bees know, the 1% are at fault.

I feel for the bee...

[-] BigMacHole@sopuli.xyz 12 points 1 month ago

Doesn't that Bee know you're ONLY supposed to Kill CHILDREN in Schools or Refugee Camps?

Honeycombrade

[-] huquad@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 month ago

Thought this was /c/uplifting news for a minute there!

[-] rauls5@lemmy.zip 10 points 1 month ago

That’s gotta sting!

The Buzz bomber will never be forgotten!

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 7 points 1 month ago

When are we going to see photos of the shackled bee in an orange jumpsuit, accompanied by a 1000 heavily armed Storm Troopers?

[-] dylanmorgan@slrpnk.net 7 points 1 month ago

Bees have always been comrades of the working man.

Finally, the "Bee Movie" and "A Bugs Life" cross over that I've been begging for

[-] HiddenLayer555@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago

The money will just go to his family. A single rich person dying is meaningless.

[-] crankyrebel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 1 month ago

One less, is always a good thing in my book. The family BTW, is in a big feud over the inheritance, so maybe they will eat themselves, or we could always send in more bees. 🐝
