I’ve angered a bee

I just didn’t notice her. Then I was twisting peppers off a plant, and she started getting loud and hovering a little close. 😬 “I’m sorry, lady. I gotta make dinner. Just need some onion too and I’ll be on my w—“
She flew up higher, so I abandoned the onions and am now hiding inside for a bit. 😅 I’ve never been stung even when I’ve had bees land on me. But I’ve also never so clearly pissed one off except the time when I was a kid, and my sisters and I accidentally caught one while trying to get butterflies (we abandoned the nets after that). Oops.

Know what’s funny? Honeybees’ venom is supposed to have cancer-fighting properties. I’d need way more than a single bee’s sting. I think about that sometimes though.
Bee stings aren't that bad, black widow bite is way more painful. Wasps and hornets are the one's you don't want mess with, they can sting multiple times and they bite.
@UnderLockDown The black widow would be the worst. Any with that deadliness. Came close to an issue with a yellow jacket recently; thought it was a bee till I saw it was eating eggs off the plate (I was eating outside for a change). That surprised me (so much that I needed to stop and take a pic of it while waiting for it to go away so I could retrieve the plate. Lol) But I knew bees weren’t supposed to be carnivorous. 😅
@Colonelmustardseed Widow bites are so painful!!😖🤕 The pain can last for a VERY LONG time. The muscles in your abdomen feel like you got kicked by a horse. It sucks!!

Hopefully that bee is so busy she’ll forget about it.
@cherokeepatti Yes. 😅 I did start dinner without the onions still. Lol
I have never been stung either, even when an angry swarm passed by me. I was a kid in the 70's at the time living in an apartment complex, some idiot kids were throwing rocks in a dumpster where there was a hive, which pissed the bees off and went after the kids throwing the rocks. I was right in the middle of the swarm but showed no fear, I just stood there watching them shoot by like angry little missiles.
@Colonelmustardseed That they did, I could hear the ouches and screams of pain within a few seconds.
@Colonelmustardseed I can imagine
