There is a saying that "honey attracts more flies than vinegar" but this has me wondering if honey would attract more flies than a pile of shit. π€

this is recursive, people will never stop reading this forever until they die of starvation.
"Read that again"
A sentence that never follows something of value
I love that the "read that again" is part of the quote of an unknown source quoting a nameless "wise man".
LOUDER
A SENTENCE THAT NEVER FOLLOWS SOMETHING OF VALUE
LOUDER
A SENTENCE!
I think the quoted person called "unknown" is a good indicator as well.
instructions unclear, i've been reading this in a loop for the past 7 hours
Seriously, though, what are we supposed to be looking for in the second readthrough? I can't find any sort of typo or hidden message.
That's how you end up with massive AWS bills.
Oh, but did you try reading it again louder?
tfw no exit condition
"Hey, boss, why do we have to lick shit? Isn't there a lot of honey?" - "That is just s myth, now eat your shit."
I think grown bees don't eat honey
In my experience they do.
I've given some cooled out bees some honey and warm water, and they always go for it and usually recover and fly away
I don't get why this is in this community. It's a good message. 2 groups with very different interests, they are never going to convince eachother that their own thing is better.
Person A loves skydiving. Person B loves reading. They're never going to convince eachother that the other hobby is better.
Everyone taking away that flies are stupid people are just falling in the same pitfall of fighting battles with no victory condition
I read it like a anti social guideline: don't share your good info with others less deserving or so. But that might be wrong.
I mean from the flies' perspective the opposite is probably true, so wygd
"For the people in the back"? The back of where? What is this man talking about? I'm not on stage. I'm in my living room, waiting for the kettle to boil. Are there people in my house? Who are "the people in the back"? I'm reading this sentence out loud but it still sounds fucking stupid. Help me, bald man with beard!
Sh*t
LinkedIn is finally allowed by Scarfolk council
Now with more pixels!
Thanks, reread in hi-res!
Smart people don't bother explaining to dumb people how dumb they are.
And yet the post and the message both try to get you to explain it by reading it again or louder.
Honey is bee shit
Itβs bee puke.
Tomato tomatoe
You know... I actually agree with this one. This is why I don't go around telling people Linux is better.
Thanks for a sane comment to build on.
I actually think it is a fault of the American educated class that they assume that the uneducated people understand what they missed.
We all think everyone gets it or will get it with some Cliffs Notes.
That just isnβt true.
Honey is bee vomit so...there's that.
It's not technically vomit because they have a special chamber separate from their stomach for it.

If honey is bee vomit, then babies are human piss
Good advice, why concern yourself with the opinions of LESSER MORTALS?
Typo in the alt text
Thank you π«‘
now the question is whether the edit will federate
Are there known issues with that?
I've seen it first hand
I've seen quite a few flies on shit in my lifetime.
