According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible. Yellow, black. Yellow, black. Yellow, black. Yellow, black. Ooh, black and yellow! Let's shake it up a little. Barry! Breakfast is ready! Ooming! Hang on a second. Hello? - Barry? - Adam? - Oan you believe this is happening? - I can't. I'll pick you up. Looking sharp. Use the stairs. Your father paid good money for those. Sorry. I'm excited. Here's the graduate. We're very proud of you, son. A perfect report card, all B's. Very proud. Ma! I got a thing going here. - You got lint on your fuzz. - Ow! That's me! - Wave to us! We'll be in row 118,000. - Bye! Barry, I told you, stop flying in the house! - Hey, Adam. - Hey, Barry. - Is that fuzz gel? - A little. Special day, graduation. Never thought I'd make it. Three days grade school, three days high school. Those were awkward. Three days college. I'm glad I took a day and hitchhiked around the hive. You did come back different. - Hi, Barry. - Artie, growing a mustache? Looks good. - Hear about Frankie? - Yeah. - You going to the funeral? - No, I'm not going. Everybody knows, sting someone, you die. Don't waste it on a squirrel. Such a hothead. I guess he could have just gotten out of the way. I love this incorporating an amusement park into our day. That's why we don't need vacations.

The longtime unofficial mascot of the Standard Oil company and its agents; part of a branding initiative which contained the red-on-white "Esso" brand in a blue oval, next to which was posed a yellow-on-white honeybee carrying a petrol jerrycan instead of a jar of honey. The local filling stations issued snappy uniforms with the attendant's name next to the logo of the Esso Bee. The promotion immediately caught the imagination of the motoring public, who affectionately referred to all of the folks working for Mr. Rockefeller as the local "Esso Bees" - a moniker which the company embraced with pride.
Alas, all good things must come to an end. The ownership of the Standard Oil and Esso marks is as fragmented today as the ownership of the Bell System logos became after the 1982 court-ordered AT&T breakup and for much the same reasons -- both companies had structured themselves as multiple businesses in each state (such as "Standard Oil of New Jersey") and the individual components being sold apart only brought confusion and chaos.
America, terrorised by the Arab oil embargo, saw widespread shortages and skyrocketing prices. Esso was rebranded as Exxon and the mascot changed to a tiger driving an Abrams battle tank across the Iraqi desert with the tagline "put a tiger in your tank!" Full serve was displaced by self-serve and the service bays which used to dispense free air for your tyres replaced with overpriced "convenience" stores with little of value to offer. Service went down, prices went up.
The old-timers were not amused. They'd pull up to the pumps, become visibly upset and ask "Where are the Esso Bees who are supposed to be running this company?"
Disenchanted motorists had come to expect that there's always one Esso Bee in every swarm.

The Trojans kept falling off; so to stop impregnating his cousins, Leroy stopped by the store and picked up a value pack of bee hats.

A cartoon movie that just cannot be real but yet it is.
It shows bestiality to children and so becomes a meme on the internet.
