I really couldn't resist doing this. I was watching 'Bee Movie' and they started off with a Top Gun-style beginning. That, in and by itself, wasn't funny but the words had me laughing for a long time. Here it is.

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee is supposed to be able to fly

Its wings are considered too small to get its little fat body off the ground.

The bee, of course, flies anyway.

Because bees do not care what humans think is impossible.

I think it's because of the image of the bee being oblivious to what humans are insisitng cannot be done that is so hilarious. It's like this: Humans think they are masters of the universe (By the power of Grayskull, anyone?). This ends up as a sort of arrogance that they know and/or control everything, in this case, whether bees can fly. Try imagining a bunch of humans arguing over this and the bee is flying past them going, 'La la la la la' without bothering whether it is conforming to all the arguments.
