I would just like to note

that while finding a fly in my mug of tea is bad, finding it there after taking a large swallow is worse.

I poured the cup out, and brewed new tea, using my nice Chinese mug with the matching lid.


(Also, and unrelated to the above, detachable handles can look a lot like candles at a quick glance.)

I've been in fly-infested places and attempted to drink fly-free beverages. I am distressingly empathetic to your plight.

Meanwhile, I'm also reminded of the legendary "how you know you've been in-country too long" Vietnam vet stories about flies and coffee.
