Poll: Fly lands on your lunch, what do you do?

A co-worker of mine just threw away his entire lunch because a fly landed on it, which I thought was a toal waste. If it were me, I would have just cut out or removed the place where the fly landed and still ate it.

So vote. 🙂
 
I'd smack the fly for being stupid enough to land on my lunch while I'm looking, as opposed to 5 seconds before when I wasn't looking.
 
Alright, heres a twist to that poll. If you are outside eating at a little bistro, this hot chick with a poodle comes walking by, the dog sh1ts on the sidewalk. Being the b1tch that the hot chick is, she doesn't pick it up. You are upwind from it so it doesn't bother you too much. You do however notice that couple flys have found it. You watch them for couple seconds and notice one that was on the crap happens to take off, you track the fly thru the air, and were does he land, smack dab in the middle of your bacon cheeseburger while you have the top bun off. What do you do?

Go see a psychiatrist to find out why I'm so damned obsessed with flys....

Wave the fly away and eat my lunch. Sheesh. It's not as if the dog came over and crapped on my burger, after all. For all I know, the person who made the burger wiped their ass with it.

As long as the food doesn't smell bad or look bad, you're probably going to live through the horrifying experience of having a *gasp* FLY land on your food.

Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
 
If there's a bunch of flies at a restaurant, indoors, I usually will just leave w/o ordering food. That's usually not a good sign.

Outdoors, or random, I just shoo fly away. I may or may not eat around the spot.
 
As long as the fly didn't carry a turd over with him, I'd eat the burger. Flies are the least of your worries. Imagine how much nasty stuff you eat every day with out knowing it. I remember reading a survey done about the dirtiest everyday things or something like that and the number one turned out to be the peanut bowl in a bar. Gah!

Not to mention, your *keyboard* is most likely dirtier than the toilet. There was an article posted to Slashdot about a year ago about this. Just something to think about next time you touch your keyboard.... 😀
