If you don’t have a cloaca you can’t use birds
So anybody with a cloaca can just go around and use birds?
It’s that what you’re saying?
#outrage
Have an open mind. It’s 2024 for crying out loud. If they identify as a bird then of course they use birds rooms.
Say have you heard?
I have it on good authority that everybody’s heard about the bird.
I know some of these words
A cloaca is kinda like an anus that you also piss and reproduce with.
Efficient
Terrific username for posting cloaca facts
Find a member of staff and ask where the “human bathrooms” are. Don’t let them leave until they explain. Bonus points if you piss your pants while they are trying to explain.
Look them intensely in the eye as piss streams down your leg to establish dominance.
Better piss on their leg to mark your territory
“Excuse me sir/madam, I am looking for the human bathroom as I need to pour out some liquid from inside of my body through my urethra, something we humans normally do.”
One of the most uncomfortable episodes.
I had to look it up. Am I correct in thinking this was a transphobic episode?
Southpark makes fun of literally every and anything, so yeah it could be considered transphobic lol. Just keep in mind the intention is to be gross, over the top, nonsensical, etc…
I hate the excuse of “making fun of everything”
Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.
Eh, life is short, might as well find humor in things, if we tip toed around everything anyone could possibly get offended for, the world would be a pretty bleak place.
Humor isn’t harmless, you are affecting the quality of life of minorities if you punch down on them for no reason.
That’s how you get idiots on Twitter getting offended at everything.
This one might have been, but a few seasons later you have “The Cissy”, probably the most trans-supportive episode they made.
South Park is always “edgy” in the safest way. Climate change was widely ridiculed when they made manbearpig, and the undertones of this one were definitely pretty bad. I give them a pass on mr/Mrs garrison because he’s always been a piece of shit much like cartman, but the message with Gerald and Kyle is “surgery doesn’t change who you really are.” It dropped in 2005 so… Product of the time I guess?
Kinda. But it gets fucking crazy. Mr Garrison gets surgery to be trans fem. Kyle gets taller, black skin, and Mr Garrison’s testicles as his new knees. Gerald becomes a dolphin. It’s all over the place.
Matt and Trey use the writing technique of “but, therefore” which leads to very insane story threads (with their ribald thinking)
The British call women “birds” sometimes. Idk.
aha because it sounds like “births”
Well, bees have stingers, which penetrate…
Except male bees have no stingers, and almost all bees are female… So I guess that would leave us fellas as being the birds?
Birds are cool I guess
Women can be quite stingy, so that’s women I guess
Ain’t that a b(ee)…
I see what you did there 😏
Neither unless your a bee or a bird.
Just look for the one with a line (queue) outside.
Or be fair and pee half in each.
Or be chaotic and scrawl “Mammals” on the wall and pee under that.
If you carry and deposit pollen - use the Bees, if you are laying eggs - use the Birds, else use the floor.
I am shocked how few people know Georgia O’Keeffe’s paintings? Bees (females) going flower to flower, pollinating.
I hope those are single user bathrooms. It just simplifies things.
Wow never actually got the meaning:
According to tradition, “the birds and the bees” is a metaphorical story sometimes told to children in an attempt to explain the mechanics and results of sexual intercourse through reference to easily observed natural events. For instance, bees carry and deposit pollen into flowers, a visible and easy-to-explain parallel to fertilization. Female birds laying eggs is a similarly visible and easy-to-explain parallel to ovulation. Another interpretation of the bird laying the egg is childbirth, although that is not as common.
PS: left the links in this time, on iOS usually have to copy to PasteBoard to get plain text - just started happening in Voyager
But bees are almost only females
To be honest, the gender binary makes even less sense for bees (as well as wasps, ants, hornets, termites, and other hive insects) than it does for humans.
Hive insects have three sexes: queens (analogous to females), drones (analogous to males), and workers (which could be analogous to intersex people, but it doesn’t really translate into human biology).
Well if no queen is there one of the workers will transform into a queen.
Yeah, males are the drones.
But bees also lay eggs, and birds also carry and deposit pollen
Also male birds don’t lay eggs 🥚🥚
And only the queen bee lays eggs, any bee out and foraging around is a sterile female.
Isn’t it mostly just hummingbirds that would get involved with pollen? Or are there others?
It’s not exclusively hummingbirds, there are a few others. The wikipedia pages on Ornithophily and Nectarivores have some info about this.
Doesn’t matter, just wash you hands when you’re done
don’t pee on the seat and flush would be my priorities
Anarchist answer: They’re both unisex - bees for pees, birds for turds.
Hmm… You might be onto something here
Yes, this establishment’s blacklist.
At least they’re not charging people to use these bathrooms. Then you’d be kicked out of a fine establishment.
ngl I’d shit in the bees stall bc the other one probably nasty af
Do I have to hold my pee while I’m pooping until I can get to the other bathroom?
You don’t already?!??
I would say they’re unisex and just pick one.
That’s an easy one. Just wait for someone to come out and you’ll know the answer.
Androgyny person leaves.
But what if they didn’t know and just winged it themselves?
Haha, winged, like a bird.
… oh my god
No, winged like bees.
No, wings like “love take me down to the streets”
If Spongebob has taught me anything, it’s that that won’t work.
Slang for women is “chicks” and a bit more archaic, “birds” too.
Bees have a…stinger? Dunno about that one.
Aren’t most bees female though?
They are. Hence confusion with the signage.
_prick /prĭk/ noun
… A small, sharp, local pain, such as that made by a needle or bee sting … A pointed object, such as an ice pick, goad, or thorn. _
- The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition
Suppose calling men bees are more polite than calling them pricks…
Bees are all female, so…
I got the stinger :p
No they aren’t, the males just live in the hive and their only purpose is to fuck
Death by snu snu.
Drones also maintain the temperature of the nest/hive.
Additionally, carpenter bee drones defend the hive (although they don’t actually have any defences, and therefore do this by repeatedly bumping into the adversary); and Asian honey bee drones help to kill murder hornets, by enveloping them (alongside other bees) and essentially cooking them to death.
You’re thinking of honey bees. And no, honey bees do not “live in the hive and fuck.” They fuck once mid air then die.
Fucking living the dream
This sent me down a rabbit hole. It’s estimated that less than one in one thousand actually mate though. So… Maybe.
Lol no they aren’t. Honey bees have male drones. Carpenter bees have male bees that guard their nest from other bees.
No they’re not, that wouldn’t even make sense. If all individuals of a species are of a single sex, there wouldn’t be male and female, they are hermaphrodites. Bees reproduce sexually.
Honey this is an Applebee’s, shit wherever you want.
Especially in the microwave. Adds flavor.
Answer the question, Claire!
Just pick one and piss. I’ve pissed in the woman’s bathroom before when the guys one was full. It’s not a big deal. No one cares.
Women are Bees. Men are Birds. Arrhenotoky OP.
Of the 60,000 bees in a hive, almost 99% of them are female! Female honey bees, or worker bees, make all of the decisions in the hive and do all of the work. There are a couple hundred male bees in a hive, but they don’t do much but sit around and eat food.
Thats a little to common sense for the average American.
I’d wager bees are boys, for bathroom purposes, cause boys have a “stinger”
Maybe this isn’t in America.
That said, if it was in the UK, ‘birds’ would be for women, so the result would be the same.
Same thought different reasoning: the expression “a bees dick” exists. There’s no equivalent for birds.
Well, there is the fact that “bird” is itself slang for both penis and woman, though of course in the case of the latter it is antiquated enough to be considered offensive (of course, since as I’m informed the only inoffensive ways to refer to those who identify as belonging to the gender traditionally known as the “not male” gender are “girls” for those under 18 and “women” for those above, the offensiveness of this term is perhaps expected.)
A birds pecker?
Huh, not heard that one
Meanwhile I’ve never heard “a bee’s dick” in my life.
average American… for bathroom purposes,… boys have a “stinger”
Exhibit A!
I think it’s a play on words Bees -> Bs, B stands for Boy. Birds -> British slang for women.
Birds -> Bs, B stands for Boy…
I mean that if you say “Bees” out loud it sounds like “B’s”, as in the boy’s room.
I actually got that after I read my own post
But it did remind me of the joke that Quebec labels the cold water with C for cold and hot water with C for chaud
