You know you're a Drosophilist when...

you get really excited when you see a big, white, puffy female.

you get really reallly reallllyy excited when you see a spot of meconium/poop in said white, puffy female’s abdomen.

male virgins are the worst UGHHHHH.

you have suffered the pain of flies getting stuck to the bottom of the vial.

you have attempted to save sticky flies by bathing them with some water and a paintbrush under a microscope.

you go in to work on the weekends because flies wait for no one.

you have accidentally swallowed/inhaled your test subjects.

you get feel like a proud mama/papa when your brand new stock starts to emerge.

you have a no squishing policy.

you have stood in your kitchen trying to sex the fruit flies hanging around.

mutants make you happy.

you have purposefully abstained from coffee because you know you have dissections to do that day.

you have gotten sleepy after too much time pushing flies with the CO2.
