Just try not to swallow the fly. I’ve heard if it gets inside you, the only way to get rid of it is to swallow a spider
That’s just straight up not true. Fly paper works just as well as spiders.
Then how do you handle the fly paper? You can swallow a bird to handle the spider. No problem. But I know of no solution for fly paper.
That depends on what score the judges gives the fly.
Below 5, drink away, he was holding his team back.
5-7, still no big loss, but showing improvement, so if you can remove the fly, he might perform better next time.
8-9, his team will take a big hit if you drink him, you should immadiately rescue him.
10, it is your duty to not only save him, and for the next 17 days you are responsible for acting as his bodyguard
Damn you, was just about to say I’d give him a 6.9 for obvious reasons

Lol … I was born and raised in northern Ontario. I’m indigenous and I’ve spent a lot of time in the northern wilderness which has lots and lots of swamp land and in the summer hosts billions of biting insects.
My parents were born in the bush so life out there was normal for us.
I remember spending summers out camping in July with clouds of black flies, mosquitoes, deer flies, midges and sand flies… when we drank a cup of tea by the fire, you first had to skim off the drowning insects before taking a sip.
I think one fly in your wine is OK
Just asking questions, just asking questions ;) Horseflies were the worst! I feel like I lost a part of me when they’d bite
Which is why when you meet many old timer Indigenous person in northern Ontario, they’re dressed in long pants and long sleeved clothing in the summer. The only time I wear tshirts or shorts is if there is a strong wind or I’m planning on jumping in the water some time soon. In the evening and especially at night, I’ll cover up every inch of exposed skin.
It always amazes me when I have my southern friends visit me, sit around a fire at dusk in tank tops and shorts and complain about the bugs … then slather on tons of insect repellent and complain about the chemicals they put on.
… all while I skim off the bugs from my drink and take a sip.
slather themsves
I’ve heard a dryer sheet works for this purpose, can u confirm + deny?
Sure. Extra protein.
You’d probably cook a calf in the milk of its mother too, wouldn’t you? Cheese greater ಠ_ಠ
It’s safe and it’s ok to do so. Whether it’s socially acceptable depends on whether you sing the “Shoo Fly! Don’t bother me!” song as a fun little kid’s song or if you do the whole 1860’s minstrel show version.
