Poll: Lord Of The Flies

[Treefrog]

Well I'm going to make myself unpopular but here goes:

The flesh fly looks like a pinstriped city fat cat and the bluebottle looks like a ch4v.
Microwave them both and see which goes pop first - I'll vote for the one that lasts longer.

Bluebottle

 

[PardonTheWait]

Flesh Fly looks much radder. More evil. Cooler.

Plus the Bluebottle's just all fat and ploddy.

 

[SidewinderINC]

the Flesh fly has far more acute senses, did a whole module on flies in forensics, and we all decided that the flesh fly was one of the coolest, ive got a table of the best/worst flies somewhere in my notes

 

[SCM]

Bluebottle for me as well tying the scores at this stage at 24 each.

25-24 to the Flesh Fly now

It has cooler looking eyes

 

[Dinerty]

neither, if they came near me I would squash them

 

[The_Blue_Dragon]

I voted Flesh Fly just because it sounds cool

 

[phykell]

Bluebottle - it's a tricked-up flesh fly with its really expensive iridium-looking two-tone paint-job

And don't forget the bluebottle's cool name: Calliphora vomitoria

Could do with a nicer picture too:

And has anyone named an album after the flesh fly? Death Metal band Pyuria named their album "Calliphora Vomitoria Introitus"

The flesh fly just looks so eighties too

 

[WantoN]

This is madness surely anyone can see there's no point to this thread... The flesh fly wins hands down

The bluebottle looks like an incarnation of the gayest homogay I myself, have ever seen. I mean look at him, he couldn't be gayer were he to don spangly star-shades and start calling everyone precious

The bluebottle has aviators on but fleshy has baked beans for eyes so I can't decide. I abstain.

 

[robmiller]

The flesh fly! Look at those eyes

 

[NeedleGunner]

Vote for Flesh Fly!!!!1!

Looks like it would kick the BlueBottles dirty little ass

 

[Jenjey]

Neither, use drosophila

But... I think it'd be nice to have a blue sheen, which you'd only get with a bluebottle

I crossed drosophila the other month! Christ they have a large offspring

I'm with you hun (sorry leon ) that other thing looks mean and ugly!

 

[cleanbluesky]

Neither, use drosophila

But... I think it'd be nice to have a blue sheen, which you'd only get with a bluebottle

Anyone who paid attention to Jason Donovans suit in the video for "Especially For You" would probably agree with you.

Retrofly for the win!

 

[Stan_Lite]

Has to be the Flesh Fly - it is so much sleeker and has a far cooler name

I'm voting for nothing that eats poo all day.

 

[Lostkat]

I'm voting for nothing that eats poo all day.

So you're voting for the flesh fly then?

 

[Berger]

Im voting for the bluebottle because they are huge, and make a class noise when they fly .
