celinerific Posted July 17, 2007 at 11:08 PM Posted July 17, 2007 at 11:08 PM (edited) Have you ever heard of the expression: "He (or she) wouldn't hurt a fly."?You have? Super. I must put this out there now... Everyone hurts flies. Someone realized that the hatred of flies is so universal that they actually came up with a device to kill them. They tried to diguise it with a nice gentle name: a "fly swatter". No, it's a fly squasher. Nobody buys it just to swat at them playfully. When someone has a "fly swatter" in their hand, they won't go lay on the grass, look up at the sky and say "I see bunny rabbits." (That is, unless they're on drugs.) You won't see a 40-year-old man sitting on the side of the street with the "fly swatter" poking at ants. If you do, you walk far away from them. Instead, you'll see people running around with those devices trying to kill something that looks like a flying black bean. I have never in my life seen anyone who sees a fly and doesn't try to kill it, or at least make it crippled... Anyhoo... that was my little thing about flies. Do you have an opinion about flies? Spill it out here. This thread only came to my mind when I smooshed a fly the other day and heard it crunch. It was horrible. I felt so bad. But the truth is... that's what most humans do... we dispise (almost) all insects.
