To Bee or to be SuperBee



What drives ordinary mortals to feats of unnatural strength? Is it the fame, the glory, or a morbid desire to inundate half of the continental United States with water?

The buzz around this ad is that the bee featured is a supervillain. Lower mortgage rates mean more people buying more houses; more houses mean less flowers. Less flowers means less honey, and ergo, less bee.

When threatened with extinction, all living creatures, even giant insects that can lift a whole pitcher of water, will strike back with vengeance. Hasn't mankind learnt anything from Super Mothra documentaries?

I mean cannot ebay and the other at least halfway decent sites DO something about these horrible ads?
They are extremely low-class and don't belong alongside these sites. Does ebay and the others need the ad revenue so badly that they would compromise and lower their standards to this degree?
Is this the mentality of the majority of their viewers?
Thanks much for being there.
P.S. I read the NYTimes article Jnuary 18.

Rob, have you been to ebay recently? I just lost two auctions because spammers raised their bids to insane amounts and the auctions were made null and void.

On topic, the mentality of the majority will remain a mystery as long as elections remain unpredictable. :)
