Do fruit flies have feelings [see details]?

This article in The New York Times suggests they do. It seems young male fruit flies, if rebuffed time after time by attractive female fruit flies, will turn to drink to drown their sorrows. Yep, they self medicate on fermented fruit.

So, can we guys get a little sympathy? If rejection hurts a tiny fruit fly brain that much, just imagine the pain it causes in us human males. Fruit flies have brains with about 100,000 neurons. We humans have 85,000,000,000 neurons. So have a heart. Save us from drink. OK?
