A search for "bees" return tons of "beer"-tagged images with nothing bee-related in them.

It also returns actual bees, but why the beer? Is it not an exact match search?

I'd be inclined to believe they trim the 's' to "singularize" the search term, so "cars" becomes "car", etc, then query where " LIKE '%bee%' "
