I'm ashamed to say that I bloody love flies!!

[drivinmecrazy]

I'm sure I'm alone in this but I'm sat I brilliant sunshine in 30 degree heat reading my kindle and enjoying the potter patter of flies across my shoulders, also then gentle breeze passing gently.
Drives my family mad as they're constantly turning on the fans and swatting them way wildly.
Now I have to say I hate them inside or near food but as tiny masseurs they are bloody lovely!!
My argument is if people pay to soak their feet in buckets of water filled with fish nibbling at their dead skin, what's so wrong with flies???

Someone’s gotta love em, I suppose.
It might as well be you 🤣

Ewwwww 🪰

Are you a toad?

I loathe flies. They're annoying buzzy bastards but also they like landing on shit and rotting things, which personally I find off-putting. Sorry!

You are a lunatic

I don't think toe nibbling fish activity is as wide-spread and beloved that it would equalise people's hatred for flies.

such an odd comparison, the 2 things have nothing to do with each other.

so despite it being Chat have a YABU.
flies are nasty, maggot laying, poo transferring pests. to death with them

I agree normally. In the house, absolutely not.
But we have fly screens and have fewer flies in the house here compared to our house in uk.
Here they always seem more docile and companionable.
Come on , I cannot be alone in this (and if I am you're all missing a trick)

you are alone in this.
and we are sending you all the flies, dead or alive

DS6 has literally just said "I hate these stupid flies!"🤣

I take it you’re not next to agricultural land & consequently getting visits from horseflies.

Companionable flies!?
Who the hell wants to be a fly's companion?

There is something very wrong with you, op.

No, these are very sweet natured flies. We're on the top of a mountain in Spain with no agricultural works (or anything else for that matter) for miles around.
I do have an issue with the tree rats though , they're the real menace here!!

Yuk, germ carriers, and so irritating.

Fish pedicures were stopped due to risk of hepatitis and hiv.

No thanks. To the fish eating my feet and the flies walking about on me.

If anything the fish is slightly less gross because they don't walk about in literal shit and corpses and rotten bins before wanting massage my shoulder.

You do you though, no judgment (well a tiny tiny tiny bit )

Spiders and cats are free to roam in my house. Flies not soo much

Found someone else on Google images (unless this is you lol) Hopefully photo will show.

It's so nice you like them, they're so unlikeable to the rest of us Don't they simultaneously vomit and poo though, when they land, or did my gran just say that so I'd keep away from them?

Flies are from hell.. they like dead things and poo and everything disgusting

Point taken, I'll keep my fly fetish to myself then.
They'll be going soon as the house is starting to stir and everyone will be waking up soon so fans will be turned on and the flies will be gone, until tomorrow afternoon

the next time someone calls me weird I'm quoting you

Even the flies are better here stealth boast?

What species of flies are you talking about? OP? I like many species of hoverflies but bluebottles and green bottles can do one.

I don't share your love. One of my favourite poems:

Is your real name Renfield?

You realise they've probably just been sitting on a dog poo ...

They are good for spiders as they are breakfast, lunch, dinner.

Not for humans

Unless you are very, very weird.
