    I tweeted this to Steve Vai (who is an honest to god bug bee keeper), and he… ok ok I’m kidding. I don’t even have a Twitter. But if I had one, and I did tweet this to him, I’m sure he’d wail a guitar solo in your honor!

    I think this might be the 1st reference to actual insect behavior in a Bug strip. Weird, huh?

    “Trunky, not Funky” just might be the next “Not that there’s anything wrong with that”. You just have to get Seinfeld to say it.
    Also, booty-shaking niece is hilarious.
    Pollen. Funny funny stuff here. I love this comic, man!

    Heh, so true. My friends and I, quite at random, “Do a silly dance!” He’s a happy person, I’m a bipolar cynic with a distaste for human society. Take from that what you will.

    I’m a belly dancer with a depressive bipolar disorder, and I always feel better after class. Maybe it’s the booty shaking? Gotta remember to shimmy more!

    It’s because the endorphins generated from good, sweaty exercise have mighty powers against depression. No kidding.

    I dunno, man, I was having a major depressive episode last week and at one point I did a little dance just so’s people would stop asking me about it. I must have looked sufficiently cheery, because the questions stopped, but I wasn’t feeling any better. :/

    Your niece is totally adorbs though.

    Another excellent LOL comic sir. The geek (and beekeeper) in me feels compelled to point out that according to Karl Von Frisch’ seminal work bees only dance to show the location of nectar (or other calorific finds) rather than pollen (protein). They do forage for the latter but apparently do not dance for it. Unless you know better? In which case post a reference and accept my apology

    Nice, but what about bipolar people? Half the time I’m shaking my booty, the other half I’m sulking and droopy….

    The niece made me laugh so hard I had tears. Even though she’s a bug, she reminds me of my niece!

    Shaking your booty, your derrière, your rump, your butt, your hindquarters, your tuchus, your hams, your glutes, your flanks, your bottom, your sittin’ muscle, your caboose, your rapidly-growing following, your big bounder, rounder than a quarter-pounder…

    My 4 year old always jumps out of the bath and does her “Naked Butt” dance. I am guessing she is pretty happy.
