Well, that's it -- I'm a believer. All hail the Bee God!

I don't get it. Some guy died, yes? And there were divine bees in a tree, no? Did the bees kill the guy? Do connect the dots for The Asmo, will you? :(

He dies, he transmogrifies into a bunch of nasty inter-dimensional bees, let's himself be seen in his new form.
Unlike you his enemies get it, they know he is coming for them, they quail.
He stings them most [haven't got an adjective for this yet] - for eternity or until it bores him.
I don't know if there was a butterfly sighted, I never really saw any advantage in being like a butterfly and a bee as opposed to just being beeish. Just showmanship I suspect.
And misdirection, I'm a helpless butterfly with my hands by my side, STING!Thanks god, didn't know you were a boxing fan but could we keep our discourse to your thread, I don't want people seeing me talking to you everywhere, they'll think me weird, I've got my atheist cred to maintain.
Yeah, but... Where's the implied connection? That's the bit I don't get. My pattern-seeking behaviour works in a different way, I suppose.
I absolutely understand that there is some sort of a false pattern involved here, I just cannot. See. It.
QuoteAli's most famous quotes saying he, "Floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee.
Right... That's what he said... And..? Is it *really* as thin as that? A guy uses the word "bee" now and then, and after his death, people see the Divine Bees as divine..?
If that really is all it takes, I'm SO setting up a religious scam.

Yes, I live here and it is that thin. There's some cooky people out there. Lol
He's Muslim though, so the Christians are fucked.

You'll probably have to do sufficient rounds with Joe Frazier to catch the Parkinson's though, to get the cred, but you'd be dead.

I guess we will have to wait and see. But I'm not holding my breath.
Makes me wonder about the origin of the phrases: Holy Cow, Holy Guacamole, Holy Shit, etc. :scratch:
Holy Smoke--that one I can understand :smokin cool:... but Holy Bees!? :o

I always imagined "holy cow" was referencing the Hindu religion, but maybe I'm taking it too literally :P. I don't know about the others though.
"Holy noodles" deserves a place on that list. Does anyone even say that? :query:

Is this a satirical piece? Bees gathering on a tree = god is real?
Naah, It is not that xSP. The coincidental bee in the tree thing is related to one of his most famous utterances; "Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee". He might have been a reincarnated roman. His birth name was Cassius Clay. Aside from all that he was a spectacular fighter who backed up his mouthy expressions with outstanding pugilistic skill. One of his other famous expressions was; "I am the greatest". He probably was.
He was almost god-like around here.
I still think Ali vs Tyson, both in their prime, would have been something to see.

Oh, ok, I see the faulty connection.

Have you been watching too many B horror movies lately? :P
Ali, I have missed you more than I can tell. The rest of us also missed your always fun sometimes brilliant posts. I hope that you can find time to honor us with your presence in the future.
