But everyone's put that, so alternate answer: "Your mum".

How did you guess? I've tried to keep my troubled, insectile family history from you all. It sucks being the eldest child of 10,000.

Is it not that colour naturally? Such a thing does exist, according to Gerald Durrell.

Wow. Cool. Do you have a link?

Er.. it's unlikely to have blue fur, cos most insects can only produce blue/green colours by light diffraction surfaces. There's a blueish bee here (http://www.newholland.com/na/news/nhn/Oct01/pic4a.jpg) - you can see it's a sort of smooth oily blue, rather than fluffy light blue.

Ha, yes I do! I couldn't find one earlier, but I've suddenly remembered it was a carpenter bee. Here: http://spiders.ucr.edu/images/xyvp.jpg

Is that one of those incredibly diddy ones that fly around disguised as non-bees then sting you before you realise what has happened?

Bastards.

Now that I can't tell you.

Alternate answer - the FBI's newest weapon of mass destruction.

But what do they think *my* icon is a picture of?

Benjy mouse? Or Frankie mouse?

Was initially tempted to write “I have no idea”, on account of my friends page not displaying icons. Thought better of it, clicked through to the comments page, was actually disappointed to see your usual icon rather than a strange, exotic image that people might have serious disagreements about…

The people need to know: Why was the answer to this question ever in doubt?

Although, why is it blue anyway?

[identity profile] cardinalsin.livejournal.com 2005-01-07 03:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Because otherwise it wouldn't be bluedevi, would it? *rolls eyes*

The text box won't let me put my complete answer:

It's a bee that's accidentally fallen into a toilet with too many of those clingy-on-to-the-side disinfectant devices full of blue stuff, then has been rescued by some caring beeophile and carefully dried with bog roll prior to being put on a white surface and photographed.

Of course.

I think it's Peter Sellers.
