Bees and flies

There are two types of people in this world: the bees and flies. Bees are smart, and flies are dumb.

If a bee gets trapped in a bottle, it'll fly straight up, towards light and get out. The fly flies into the side a thousand times, go round and round till it finds its way out by chance. Pretty dumb, right?


But, what happens if the bottle is flipped upside down?

The bee still flies upward, but there's no way out. The fly keeps trying by going round and round till it finds its way out through the bottom. The bee dies in the bottle.

In some situations, what we can't see is that someone's turned the bottle upside down, and that sometimes you need to think as a fly.
