Few hips would be articulate enough to convey any precise message, which would be necessary to lie. Hers have the speed and precision required to formulate lies, in morse code for example.

    Do you think Shakira has the control needed to learn bee dancing?

    Could we convince her to lie to some bees?

    I really fucking hate jazz. You can see why I have problems with the little bastards.

      As a liker of jazz and bees, I don’t agree that she should. But as too if she could… I’d say yes, but I don’t think the bees would listen. We rarely find meaning where we’re not looking for it, and as the bees wouldn’t expect Shakira’s hips to make sense, they wouldn’t keep watching enough to get the whole message. Like someone standing right next to a giant word written on a giant cliff, who wouldn’t see enough of it to realize these colours form letters.

        The last time a bee played jazz for me I just about came unglued. I tried to catch the little bastard but he was too quick, flying in his jazzy little pattern.
