alexandriawebWhy in the world had this made international news?
What ever's next? Obama's first sneeze?
Seriously people, surely there's something way more important or way more light hearted you could be fussing about? But nooo... It's Obama...And he's killing a fly...WTF?
Speaking of WTF? WTF is going on with PETA's reaction? Puh-lease...
They're sending him one of these: https://www.petacatalog.org/prodinfo.asp?number=HP220
Now while it would be great for everything to be all fluffy and humaine, a humane fly trap (which you have to close the door on yourself) just looks overly complicated. You do realise how fast flys can be right? It was a miricle (ok that's probably both the wrong word and spelled wrong) that he hit the thing in the first place. You wanna try lureing a fly into your trap and then attempt to close the door before it flies away, be my guest, but allow me to come over, sit on your sofa and eat a family sized bag of pickled onion monster munch (do those exist?) and laugh at you leaping all over the house in persuit of said fly...
You wanna be humane to flys? Ignore them, welcome their disease riddled bodies into your home, don't hug them though, you might squish the poor things.
Even better idea, get a venus fly trap...Or a cat...Or a dog (my dog is a big fan of eating wasps), and if you really must then resort to swatting then go right ahead but don't blame me if you accidently punch the wall instead.
I hate PETA, does that make me a bad Vegan?
