Accidental animal cruelty
I once invented a brilliant game - I'd sit at the top of the stairs and throw cat biscuits to the bottom. My cat would eat them, then I'd shake the box, and he would run up the stairs for more biscuits. Then - of course - I'd throw a biscuit back down to the bottom. I kept this going for about half an hour, amused at my little game, and all was fine until the cat vomited. I felt absolutely dreadful.
Have you accidentally been cruel to an animal?
This question has been revived from way, way, way back on the b3ta messageboard when it was all fields round here.

Would You Like Flies With That?

This isn't accidental cruelty, it's deliberate.
For years, when faced with flies, daddy-long-legs, wasps, mosquitoes and other assorted vermin, I've dealt with them in my own special way.
Some people use fly spray, RAID and it's ilk. But not me. Years of experience have taught me that, when you hit a wasp with fly-spray, they get very,very pissed off and attack.
The safest way, kiddies, is hairspray. One shot turns the little fuckers into gliders.
"WYYYYMMMMM... splat

Alternatives
I discovered the same thing about RAID etc. Completely useless and ends up making the place stink.
Out of desperation one day I found that any kind of kitchen/bathroom cleaner works especially well... basically the chemicals in them melts their legs/wings/eyes/etc and they'll be dead almost immediately. Brilliant.

good stuff
i find that, being in the motor trade, the odd bastard wasp that wanders in is very flamable especially when using brake cleaner and a lighter :-)
