A Question of Etiquette

Smile and ask her if you have something in your teeth?!0

I would pop out my smartphone and track the calories.
How many grams of protein in a fly?0 -
I would have called the waitress over, pointed it out, and asked for a fresh drink.
Proper Etiquitte doesn't require that you eat a dead fly.
Exactly, having discreetly removed the fly from my mouth to my napkin, I'd be calling the waitress/waiter over and making them aware of the problem calmly and without making a fuss. Or excused myself from the table and asked for the manager out of the hearing of my table mates if it was very formal.0 -

Run, screaming out the door, leaving the remaining guests to fend for themselves.0

I want to know what you did :laugh:0

Welllllll, if it was me I would have:
a) discreetly taken the offending fly out of my mouth whilst covering it with a napkin
b) called over the prettiest waitress I could see
c) show her the malodorous insect and say
d) "I'm afraid I will have to return your generous gift because it's rather unsafe to drink and fly"
e) watch as she giggles
f) get her number
g) meet her for a drink after her shift finished
h) end the evening doing the horizontal hoolah

Actually sitting laughing at work, haha!!0 -
Gross me out the door!! I think I'd be getting a free meal at least, I wouldn't freak out but I would let management know for sure.0

I'd have made a huge hilarious deal out of that situation - give everyone something to remember and maybe turn some acquaintances into friends0

Agreed!0 -
Spit it out into something, I don't think I would even think about the other guests at that point lol and if they don't like it tough, its a fly! Maybe caution them afterwards to check their own drinks.0
