I just figured out that this isn't even one of the food threads and the jackass that started all this was either too loving dumb to read the thread title or was outright trolling you all.

My Q-Face posted:There is a puff of a powdery substance that jets out when you disturb a Yellow Jacket nest. This will cling to your skin, your clothes and so on. Even if you run, this will leave a trail in the air that the hornets can follow and they will follow it for hundreds of yards and sting the ever living gently caress out of you. I know this first hand, and I never even saw the nest beforehand. Free Cheese posted:Bees and wasps do release alarm pheromones when they are threatened or die that attracts other members of the nest, and honey bee stingers release the same pheromones after they detach from the bee. That's why beekeepers use smoke when they inspect hives, it masks those pheromones and helps to keep the bees unaware of your presence I always thought the smoke made the bees dizzy or sleepy or something....

I don't like report-shaming too often because we don't want to scare people off from using the report function as intended. However we do get plenty of really goofy reports. reported for "helldumping" reported for "unmarked NWS" reported for being a "shitlord pubbie posting in the wrong thread"I didn't crop LoB's name because it's LoB. He gets reported a lot

The other day I just realized that the snack food Snapea Crisps- made of dried peas or some poo poo with spices, is not pronounced "snap-ee-uh crisps." It's SNAP PEA crisps. Ya know, because they contain snap peas.  I've never bought any; I just see them in passing at the market, but my brain never parsed the name correctly.

I read somewhere that Ben Folds Five named themselves that so more food would get put out backstage for them. Probably bullshit, but it does sound better than Ben Folds Three.

When people talked about Bon Iver, I was convinced the dude's name was Bonnie Bear for the longest time. It's a better musician's name, anyway.

It's based on the French colonies in Africa but considering India also has elephants and rhinos and was subject to western colonization, the mistake is understandable.

I was reading Aku Ankka on the bog (as one does) and there was a Moby Duck story in it and it struck me that Moby (the musician, not the duck) is the only person in the world who can use "do you like Herman Melville?" as a bad pick-up line.

Last night I discovered that Julie Bowen and Ali Larter aren't the same person. When I first saw Bowen on Boston Legal I thought "oh, it's Niki from Heroes!" and never thought about it again. I only found out my mistake because I was going through Bowen's IMDB page to find out what else she'd been in and was surprised that Heroes wasn't listed.

I learned this past weekend that all of Sublime's famous songs come from one album, and it was released after the lead singer Bradley Nowell died of an overdose. I knew their lead singer had died in the mid 90s but I had no idea the band wasn't even famous yet when he died.
