No, then they're going to have walked over everything, then bleed their juices over whatever you flattened them on.

For some reason, I like regular flies as long as there's only one. Just like bumblebees, they're sort of cute.

Sometimes, I'll let one of those regular flies walk around on my hand and play with it, making it walk from finger to finger. Their buzzing reminds me of good old times at my grandparents farm when they were still alive.
How do you even do that? I can't even kill a fly without swatter assistance, let alone get them to be friends.

You just have to move very slowly so it doesn't get startled.
Alternatively, you could just not bathe for a month. Then you will be lord of the flies.

That's what antibacterial wipes and spray are for. Also, I don't always kill them. Like I said, if I can flick em out the window or out a door I'll do that, then they become SEP.
Sorted.

tfw you ride an old school rigid frame chopper for the first time.



My father has been building choppers since his early 20s. He built the bike in the foreground when I was about 10 years old and he has been waiting patiently for me to get my license and ride it ever since. I don't think I've ever seen him as happy as he was that day.

Nothing can prepare somebody for the intensity of a rigid frame chopper. The engines are mounted directly to the frame with bolts and washers, not a single rubber shock absorber, so you feel every twist of the throttle ripple outward through every bone in your body. It literally feels like blasting down the highway at 100 mph on a washing machine. The handlebars vibrate so much that if you don't hold them loosely your hands will be numb within minutes. Pure adrenaline.

You know your Pap's BA when he high fives you for passing him uphill at 180 km/h.

So even Australians think their wildlife is ludicrous. I feel better.

Tarantulas are the real homies.
