Gnats

Post by heyzeus »

Our office has been infiltrated and infested by tiny gnats over the past week. I've killed probably 15 of 'em today. It's highly gross and annoying; one even landed in my water.

Even worse, they're obviously coming from somewhere...but I just don't want to know where.

Are they knats or fruit flys? I bet someone has some old fruit laying around.

I googled that to see if it was all alternate spelling.

Don't GIS "knats"

When I was a kid, I used to think that was the name of the National League baseball team in New York.

You can't really throw that out there and expect me not to.

Well, don't click on the images that looks like contact sheets. Or help yourself.

Fruit flies look like the flies you experimented on in high school while you were studying Mendelian genetics.
