Cluster Fly Invasion

Monday, August 3rd, 2009

I came home today and noticed one of those weird flies on my shower curtain. One of those flies that seem to be really dumb – you can squish them and they don’t seem to even notice you coming.

I tried to swat it but didn’t know where it had gone so I had a bit of a search. Lo and behold, there was a swarm of them all over the window! EEK! Gross. So I sprayed the bathroom and fled the scene, but not before taking a photo.

It’s been a while, but do you recall the hooha from PETA about President Obama swatting that fly? PETA still thinks Obama needs to be more caring about flies. If we could send a swarm of cluster flies to PETA and see if they like having them around. They’re persistent things that will come back after sitting on dog poos unless you exterminate them.

According to the post Obama and the fly on the PETA Files (not such a great name as it sounds like some disturbed individuals obsessed with other little beings), if you use a bug catcher you can be a bigger person (figuratively, as well as literally)! Yes, you read right. If you need to be a bigger person literally, just use a bug catcher!

I don’t need to get bigger literally as eating and being pregnant is doing that already. But thanks for the tip.

17 flies just in the corner

Ew flies! PETA in general are stupid mother fuckers. Not because they care about animals, because they go about it the wrong way to the point that they put animal well being above human well being.

We had more flies today too – about 80 in the kitchen this time, and a bunch on the bathroom floor. We’re going to need more fly spray…

And well said re: PETA. They seem to be a bunch of hypocrites from what I’ve read and heard.
