Get the drinking with flies mug.A) A predetermined act on your opponent to test their attentiveness, knowledge and intelligence on a particular subject. A test of one's eyesight, subjecting a hypothesis to a test. An evaluative device or procedure in which an outcome of the opponents response is used for self gratification. Inaccurate verbalization or over-inflated claims are intended to 'see how it flies', meaning to see if they fall for it. It is contemplated in either written or verbal form.
WRITTEN:
1. "Jahinder's CV says she can type 200 words per minute with 99% accuracy, is that possible?"
2. RPL/RCC assessments require the performance information gathered and mapped against competency standards, to determine whether the information correlates. This is especially useful for someone who is already operating in the workplace at a particular level and wants to verify that they have the required skill and knowledge for an upgraded work position.
eg: When Jon was asked to conduct a Powerpoint presentation on 'Occupational Health & Safety', he failed to do so.
VERBAL:
1. "I swam 1.54.55 in the 200 meter butterfly two years ago, almost beat Michael Phelps at his own record of 1.54.58!"
2. Annie was disappointed to see that Tajdeed's penis wasn't really 12 inches, it was actually six inches. When she confronted Tajdeed about his exaggerated measurements, he blamed the six inch decrease on the cold weather and said that all men experience penis shrinkage in winter.

Stace told Kyle that she paid $5000 for a 2015 Honda civic. When he went to congratulate her on the car, he noticed it was dodged up with a stolen engine and it didn't have an owners manual. When he told Stace, she became defensive (although she did know it was stolen) and redirected the conversation. "see how it flies' did not work for her on this particular occasion because he was motor vehicle enthusiast and had a vast knowledge about the car industry.
Stace couldn't pull the wool over Tajdeed's eyes, he proved to be smart, aware and socially articulate.

Get the see how it flies mug.Irish phrase, used to describe someone who lacks any skill in the sport of hurling/ camogie. When referring to Ireland's national sport, one may commonly hear people mention the act of 'pucking' the sliothar (ball) with the hurley, one of the many skills in the game. Pucking is in fact considered to be the sport's most fundamental skill, with any inability to perform this skill essentially dooming a player to failure. In rural Ireland, where hurling is commonly played, it is not uncommon for one to encounter the fecal matter of cows or other animals when strolling through a country field. On closer inspection, one may observe insects such as flies and dung beetles congregating around the fecal matter. The proximity of the flies to the fecal matter is generally such that they would be very easy targets should one feel compelled to swing a hurley in their direction. Thus, for someone to be considered unable to connect with flies in close proximity to a cow's fecal matter, they must be completely lacking in the basic skills of hurling/ camogie.

Get the and no flies mug.Also referred to as "Yellow Flies," for the yanks in the audience. Commonly seen in the Southern States. It is what it sounds like for the most part. Just a fly that's yellow in color and has a bite that ain't no joke.

Get the Yella Bitin Flies mug.A novel written by Ann-Marie MacDonald, often recommended in grade 12 English classes. Whatever you do, DO NOT READ IT. It's 400 pages of boring, followed by 400 pages of pure trauma-inducing scenarios.
"Bro, have you read The Way the Crow Flies for class yet?"
"Haven't you heard? That book's terrifying! No way I'm reading it."

Get the The Way the Crow Flies mug.A close family member to the fruit fly, but lacks discernment. Rather than gravitate to the sweet and sticky goodness of a booze bottle or fermenting raisin juice, the DOG PECKER FLY prefers to swarm around the swollen testicles of mangy dogs, too hot and apathetic to rid themselves of these pests.
Good Lord! Look at that swarm of DOG PECKER FLIES on MushHead's ball sac! Guess the only thing he's going to be humping is a bucket of Vaseline!
