Better as a spectator sport

If it wasn’t for the lead times required, I would almost think this was commentary on recent political reporting.

human intelligence at its best

Let karma be swift.

Co-habiting with Mother Nature.

Aww. Why can’t they let them bee?

Sounds like something Steve Irwin would do !

Human nature summed up in one strip.

You do that boys. I’ll just be standing waaaaaaaaaaay over there.

Since Darwin hasn’t been born who will they name this prize after?

FOR SCIENCE!!!

Mother Nature’s original and (of course) natural Piñata.

Well, boys, that’s a wasp’s nest, not a beehive! And there’s nothing in it but a lot of pain—unlike bees, wasps can sting you again, and again, and again …

They will be stealing Bee puke.

Honey has a shelf life of thousands of years.

YOU’LL BE SORRY

The first “stirring the nest”

Interesting how one can sound so smart one moment and so completely stupid the next!

Better wait until in the morning when it is cooler , then run like HELL !

They’ll soon find out something else they’re capable of

This is early scientific research. Today they would put it in a particle accelerator first, then hit it with a stick.

Yup, just like those old guys in the northwest used to say, “I won’t believe in Big Foot until I see the carcass.”

I heard there’s a lot of buzz about this

stupidity at work…

They don’t have a stove to burn their hand on…oh, WAIT. They’re NOT 3…what’s going on here???

This may not be a honey bee hive, but a hornets nest. Get way, way back before you poke it. Or, better yet, leave it alone.

Stupidity knows no bounds.

Let’s have some fun! Here hold my beer.

I would not be expecting much honey from a paper wasp nest.

…and thats the last thing they remember….zzzzzzzzz

The Pinata from Hell.

As an aside, 5 million bees just died from heat on a Delta flight to Alaska that was rerouted to Atlanta. :(

Species envy.

M & H…what a perfect political metaphor of a toon today! Applicable to so many situations but none more apt than Desantis and Disney….rampant stupidity for the sake a controversy and attention.

Think that’s a hornets nest and they eat other insects which really is beneficial. Better think twice about that stick thing….

You’re gonna need a bigger stick!!!

Boys…

Hopefully the colony tracks them down and every worker bee suicides on their twitching carcasses.

I do believe he was supposed to end that with “hold my beer”

As a beekeeper, I am appalled by the… oh, not really. But seriously, as someone pointed out, that’s a hornet nest. No honey, just the a$$holes of the insect world waiting to chomp on you.

Let’s set it on fire!

Sigh…….

The learning curve will be steep and quick for these two!

Humans…

Too many people don’t know the difference between honey bees and wasps. Look it up!

Those are wasps and I like them.

Better yet. You hit it with a stick and I’ll stand about 100 yards away if they don’t come out we’ll swItch places.

Which would explain why the Human species isn’t liked by the animal kingdom very much.

what would posses a person to want to hit it with a stick in the first place?

Famous last words.

This is why we need women. Well, and that other thing… cooking. [Runs away, followed by a hail of brickbats from the distaff side…] JUST KIDDING!

And this is one of the earliest reasons as to why I’m not crazy about humans as a species.
