There's an annoying fly that keeps following me everywhere. I'm naming him Earnest Jr.
ANYBODY IN MY FAMILY WILL GET THE REFERENCE
TO THOSE OF YOU NOT IN MY FAMILY - My mom had a pet fly named Earnest when she was a kid. Whenever she saw him, she would say "Hi, Earnest!" Then, one fateful day, her mother saw Earnest and said "Ew! A fly!" And whacked him.
R.I.P Earnest
Earnest Jr. is taking your place now.
