I don't need to kill flies.

[Dusk Raven]

They seem perfectly capable of killing themselves.

I'm talking about these tiny gnats the size of a grain of rice. I call them fruit flies, but I'm not sure if they actually eat fruit. As far as I can remember:

Two have ended up in the toilet, which I only noticed after peeing in said toilet, and both times I managed to scoop it out, but it died anyway.

The shower seems to be a popular hangout for them, even when I'm using it. One got wet and I'm still unsure if it survived, and other times I've had to shoo them out.

Another time, one of them flew in the sink, and down the drain... I didn't wait for it to come out before washing my hands.

And once I had just finished my cup of apple juice and was bringing it to the kitchen... I look in the cup... and apparently a fly had flown in sometime before and landed on the wall of the cup, and as I was carrying the cup upstairs the dregs of apple juice swamped it and stuck it to the wall. Despite my efforts, the fly perished.

And all of that happened this year. Damn, they drown easy... I'm wondering how many of them there actually are, if so many of them keep dying.

You remind me of Muse for some reason.

Heh....how opportune that you make this topic directly after my mention of your reticence to kill insects in that other topic in that other place where people go to play.

Yeah, the damn fruit flies always fly into my coffee. And I don't think they "eat fruit" as much as whatever is around that has sugar in it. Sometimes I find them around bread that was left out or an empty pop can.

I'm sure I could just look up what they eat, but I don't feel like it.

Fruit flies don't exactly live long prosperous lives. No need to save them from a bowl of ****, kid.

Re: I don't need to kill flies.

If we ever held a contest for a subtitle or tagline for the Pavilion, that would be in the running, methinks.

EDIT: No cut and paste on PS3....this was directed at Chrono. Stay around longer this time, Chrono. Don't wait until the new season of Lost to begin posting again.

I felt obligated to do so, but since they didn't survive, I'm just gonna flush it next time. The slightest bit of water seems to kill them, so....

I was gonna make it anyway, that just gave me a reminder.

What babe?

I hate it when they fly up your nose and it provides an itching/tickling sensation that lingers until you swallow one into your throat. They taste metallic.

They live, like, a day.

This topic resembles something Muse would post.

Also, let me be the first to post this.



Ahhhhh, I feel good being the first to post that.

Re: I don't need to kill flies.

I think it's funny how sometimes people who are picked on feel the need to pick on other people who are picked on in an attempt to fit in and to feel good about themselves, despite the fact that they are viewed in the exact same light as those persons whom they're picking on.
