I'll bet the mosquito didn't spill it!

I shouldn't be laughing, but I am.

I loved this! Made me think of two different scenarios - spilling blood from the mosquito's bite and then actually tipping a glass as you try to spill mosquito blood. :)

Lol,Today i was having a conversation with a friend that had similarities with this Haiku.
It was about our ability to call someone´s attention (so that person could have some awareness of something wrong or bad about her,him) without hurting their feelings.
We came to the conclusion that it was like telling someone they had a mosquito on the cheek and we would volunteer to get rid of it.
Well, some people would slap the other person really hard on the face some would just gently blow it out and some would use a baseball bat.
We couldn´t stop laughing.

I can just see this, Magyar - hope it wasn't expensive wine or I'd be lapping it up. Good 'un, m' friend. Warren
