FF1: Are you signing up for the latest experiement the humans are doing?

FF2: Heck YEAH…I hear it’s gonna be an open bar.

FF1: Well….I don’t mean to be politically incorrect or anything….but…I heard they’re trying to see if we’ll turn gay if they get us drunk enough.

FF2: Stupid humans. We’re FRUIT FLIES!

FF1: You do have beautiful eyes.

FF2: Shut up.

FF1: Hey buddy, can I buy you a drink?

FF2: That would be in your best interest.

FF1: What?

FF2: Let’s just say…..retro doesn’t mean you actually saved your clothes from the 80’s and are still wearing them.

LATER THAT SAME EVENING:

FF1: You havin’ fun yet?

FF2: (sobbing) I wish I knew how to quit you!!!

Am I the only one who sees the strangeness of this observation: they had this bunch of regular male flies (they call it wild-type) which before alcohol exposure showed mostly opposite-sex courtship and almost no same-sex behaviour; after the first and second exposure they started to hit on males? What made them pursue female flies before alcohol intake if they were attracted to male flies in the first place (as showed after disinhibition)? Group pressure, religious belief?…

I don’t remember anything. I must have been too drunk to go down the hall to my room”.

and the second fly say, “Yeah, Dude, me too.” knowing that the first fly will be back next saturday with a bottle of tequila.

(the gay folk will get that joke)
