    Wait, how is honey not vegan?

    It’s literally processed nectar! Sure, the processing is done by bees, but they’re not hurt in any way whatsoever and they seem happy (inasmuch as an insect that sometimes seems to enjoy playing with balls for no practical purpose can be happy) with the arrangement…

    I mean, I practically live on cheese, but I could see arguments for dairy products not being vegan given industrial farming and the whole veal thing (which is admittedly quite monstrous), but honey?

    Bees are clearly where they want to be and consider the whole deal worth the hassle… they have a built-in way to show they are (sufficiently) unhappy… and a swarm that doesn’t like its current domicile or the whole collecting excess honey deal can just leave if it wants to, and sometimes do…

    Probably miss obvious attempts of being hit on.

    “What floor you guys going to?” “Oh, we’re GOING DOWN.” “OK, so like, ground floor or basement?” “Oh we dont mean the elevator.” “… did you mean the stairs?”

    Bathroom’s down the hall.

    I feel it’s wise to have a realistic appraisal of oneself, and broke, damaged, and almost 50 ain’t landing 1 or 2 college girls. Hell I couldn’t do that in my 20s or 30s.

    TBH: oh… hi

    That’s it. I’m not picking that up, nor would they be impressed with me. No reason not to make basic small talk, especially if I’m in an area where that’s expected.

    They spend more on their appearance in general public than I would on a date.

    and not that looks are everything, but i’m def not into that whole blonde-maxxing thing

    Honey isn’t vegan

    Honey will be whatever you want her to be if you’re an important enough asset.

    / I’m here all week!

        So much this. I’d be too busy holding my breath avoiding the smell of piss and dried flowers.

        They’re also 100% not my type.
