Bees don't have lungs.

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Beekeepers intentionally use smoke to make bees docile during collection time, transfers, etc
However, what I've heard from a beekeeper is that the smoke triggers a flight response in them (from fire) so they consume honey ready to flee, and that's actual what makes them docile/drowsy.
You're telling me the bees get the munchies when they smoke...
