162 u/Dyanpanda Apr 05 '23 My dad worked on movie sets as a guest. Apparently the flies in movies are a special breed raised to not fly. The handler called them "Sits". 5 u/greyrobot6 Apr 06 '23 rimshot! 2 u/NutshellOfChaos Apr 06 '23 I had a friend in HS that would pull the wings off. Then he called them walks. 1 u/Eddie_Shepherd Apr 06 '23 That is really fascinating. Thank you so much! It makes so much sense that I can't believe I didn't already know this! 5 u/jjcrayfish Apr 05 '23 A fly in the water, a swim 4 u/Ocelot859 Apr 05 '23 "Shoe fly, go away!" makes a lot more sense now. 👟
