I'm getting a Bug-A-Salt for Christmas. It's getting picked up tonight. I'm very excited.

Not a good time to be a fly.

I just can't. I'm all warred out. 😔😢

What's wrong? You don't like my choice of gift?

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm tired of war and guns is all

Flies and I have been enemies for years.

How long before you start breaking out the weapons of mass fly destruction?

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

I've tested it but wouldn't you know it, no flies are around right now but I'm waiting.

I didn't know I needed one of these - but I do now.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 1 points 2 years ago

Oh you need one.

[–] bull@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I bought one for my dad back in January I think it was. Let me know how you go because I haven't managed to murder any flies with it yet. Blew a nice hole through a tissue when doing a test though.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago

Will do. I'll test it tonight. If I can't find a fly I'm prepared to sacrifice a small dog for experimental purposes.

Ooh, I think I want one…
