It's not posited as a method for killing humans, but it would be a horrible way to go

I don't think it'd work on humans, unless it was some mutant giant bees.

::prepares script pitch for SciFi Channel::

I dunno. We breathe much more specifically than that hornet. They'd just have to be specifically concentrated bees.

Reality show casting call:

Crap. I was all excited by this until I got to the last requirement.

D'ya suppose I could fake it?

They'd just have to be specifically concentrated bees.

Plus they'd have to know where our breathing weakness was.

So we're safe, as long as we're not infiltrated by bee spies.

I know it is stupid, but I can't help it.

Given studies like this one, I'm not so sure: Flu shots don’t save seniors' lives, study finds

That's the exact place in your post where I could contain it no longer, for the record.

And, and - I don't need to do another visa. The one I have holds for ten years. And it's not all my life savings to buy a ticket, it's just a lot.

And my best friend and her two adorable kids (one is ten months old and has just started standing, and the other is almost three years old and in some pictures he already looks like the kid he's going to grow up into, and I can't put into words the amount of missing them that I do every day, and that's even without getting their mommy in the mix) - well, they're all in Palo Alto for at least two years, so most chances are, I'll visit there, sometime in the foreseeable future.

Um, wait, that wasn't the point of that post, wasn't it? But it's what's on my mind a lot, so there you go.

Plus they'd have to know where our breathing weakness was.

All they have to do is cover every surface. That'll get them inside your nose in no time at all, and then soon your mouth and into your lungs. Bingo! Deadikins.

Slowest day ever. Y/N?

And I was thinking it but forgot to say it:

tommyrot, tons of ~ma to your mother. She's in my thoughts (and, if she cares to hear such things from your invisible friends, my prayers). It sounds like they caught it early and she's in a good place emotionally; may all that continue and may her cancer just bugger the hell off (er, don't tell her I said that part).

All they have to do is cover every surface. That'll get them inside your nose in no time at all, and then soon your mouth and into your lungs. Bingo! Deadikins.

Yeah, but that'd be kind of a waste of resources. Plus all you'd have to do is cover your face with a cloth or something.

Now if they knew where our weakness was, they could use a much smaller group, making it easier to sneak up on us before we could cover our faces with something.
