It's quite common to be slapped/smacked by people down here. Mid-conversation, mid-silence, sometimes you see it coming, other times it's out of the blue. Sometimes it stings and makes a resounding SMAAACK!, other times, it's a more humble tap. It can be on your leg, your arm... even your forehead. After you feel and hear the seemingly non sequitor tap, you look down or at your assailant, and realize they are swatting at or away mosquitoes, caborra or black flies.
oh. um, thank you.
On a side note, have you ever considered the Meaning of Life for a fly? I mean, what incorrigible little pests are they?! "I'm touching you, I'm touching you - HA! you can't get me, you can't get me!" *nibble, nibble* "Ha! You can't get me!" Besides frequenting the local dung heap, and then later your food, that's about it for them. I bet they find their irritations to be quite satisfying. What sadists.

Totally my favorite post dude. Quite the unique perspective on the flies MOL. Who would've thought they would enjoy being annoying so much?
