he had so much honey that the bees ENVIED HIM!!


That's why they killed him.

You see what I'm saying? It's all in the song, My Girl, by The Temptations.

Greatest conspiracy theory of all time?

You decide.

No? Nothing?

Hmm. Then how else do you explain that striking connection?

I've got so much honey, the bees envy me
I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees
Well, I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl.


Emphasis added.

But Thomas J. didn't have any honey. All he had was Vada's ring. And although your song lyrics could be construed as proof of your theory, in fact, at that point, Vada was not his girl. Remember, she had it all planned out. She was going to marry Mr. Bixler. She had only agreed at that point that Thomas J. would be her second choice, and even then, all she would agree to is to "think of" Thomas J if she didn't get to marry Mr. Bixler, not marry him.

This on the other hand is a pretty keen response. Thanks, person!

Dude we get it!
It's just not funny or clever.
Especially considering another IMDb user posted the exact same thing 5 months before you did. It's right here on the same page

IMO it's super funny and clever but you have to be awesome to understand why. Thanks for turning me on to that other page, but I've had the idea since way before 2015, so I will assume that person reached into my brain with telepathy and stole it. Take care of yourself, you crazy kid.
