Too many flies, so little time
"Too many flies, so little time"
I saw this on a sticker pasted at the back of a truck and it's been keeping me awake for days. WTH is it supposed to mean?

Re: Too many flies, so little time
Perhaps it means - don't waste time on useless pursuits. No matter how many "flies" you kill - there are always more. It is a waste of time - unless you buy those fly catchers. They are awesome. They catch hundreds of flies and you don't have to do anything besides set the thing up with some warm water. Don't leave it up for too long though. The water dries up and wow - maggots appear and grow into new flies. Then you refill it and drown the little buggers

Re: Too many flies, so little time
i'm guessing something to do with fly fishing..... regardless... if the hidden meaning behind a bumper sticker is keeping you awake, seek help - with an urgency...
if you suffer from bumper-sticker induced insomnia and listen to SOAD... it's probably too late

Perhaps the driver is part of an ancient order of monks that catch flies with chopstick. *queue groaning masses*

Re: Too many flies, so little time
Was it by any chance a manure / sewerage truck? Then it would make sense, I guess.

When I bought Serj Tankian's solo album (lead vocalist of SOAD) I couldn't sleep for weeks. He is evil.

Re: Too many flies, so little time
A friend suggested there might be some kind of play on words with "time flies"...
