Flies normally are a real nuisance, especially when we know where they might have been. I can still remember vividly, in London, over 30 years ago, seeing a poster showing flies hovering as well as on top of a pile of shit, with the caption: "Eat shit. 5 million flies can't be wrong!" Well, in a way...
An old farmer was hauling a load of manure, one day, when he was stopped by a state trooper.
"You were speeding," the cop said. "I'm going to have to give you a ticket."
"Yep," the farmer said as he watched the trooper shoo away several flies.
"These flies sure are terrible," the trooper complained.
"Yep," the farmer said. "Them are circle flies."
"What's a circle fly?"
"Them flies that circle a horse's ass," answered the farmer. "Them are circle flies."
"You wouldn't be calling me a horse's ass, would you?" the trooper angrily asked.
"Nope! I'm not," the farmer replied. "But you just can't fool them flies."
