    Exactly! What's a good silent fart in an elevator without it being stinky?

    I have learned an intersting thing about farts that have mystified me since I started farting. The enigma was: why, for the most part, that silent farts smell worse than loud noisy farts? The fart sound we all know and love is caused by escaping air passing through the anus at enough velocity to cause the anus to vibrate and emit the noise. If you are pre deficant (a colon full of shit for youse guys) the air must stop and pass through the fecal matter, picking up more methane, and more odor and slowing the velocity of the gas so it could not cause the vibration that makes the noise. If your colon is relatively empty, the gas can shoot through unimpeded, gathering speed and enough velovity to make a blast.

    When I get a colonoscopy, they pump my trunk full of air. Passing air out my butt after the procedure that smells like air conditioning air is really novel for me.

    We fart, we laugh, we control ourselves in public situations. We are able to make the distinction BUT I have been places with my children and someone farts (not even us necessarily) and there are the odd people in the group who are shocked and appalled that someone would do that. Relax already. It is funny and part of a healthy body!!! Let's celebrate flatulence, not belittle people who accidentally pass it sometimes. In my life, nothing is funnier than the fart - and that hasn't changed over the years.

    Probably one of the most wonderful feelings in the world (for me) is having a good fart after having had a severe bout of painful trapped wind!

    The fart scene in Blazing Saddles when they are all sitting around the campfire makes my dad laugh until he has tears in his eyes everytime. Farts are cheap entertainment.

    Haha, yes I loved that scene too. I never understood why that particular part seemed to be sensored on TV?? With the junk that seems to make it on TV these days - in my opinion, far more offensive than a fart, but they would cut it out.

    My Mom told me that my Dad was burdened by excess night wind. My Mom told me when they went to sleep, especialy after my Dad ate sauerbraten, she would not stir during the night because she did not want to break the seal on the covers and experience a zephyr of methane.


    I have another question regarding flatulence:

    Why is it when you are a man and you are about to recieve fellatio for the first time from your new girlfriend; one minute after she starts you have to let a massive fart?

    I think that has to be one of the most classic fart scenes ever.

    Ever notice there's a great deal of farting on some "Family Guy" episodes? LOL

    Blazing Saddles is a hilarious movie and so politically incorrect that it would never have been made in this day and time. I agree that Family Guy seems to contain lots of farting. Why is it that adults who have heard thousands of farts in their lifetime always giggle like elementary school kids when they hear someone fart?

    One of the world's greatest mysteries...although one day in the store while I was standing in the checkout line, someone in front of me let one rip. Not one of those tiny squeaky ones; we're talking true thunder down under (but hey, at least the offending party had the decency to say "Excuse me"). Thank goodness no smell was emitted with it or we'd all been dead. I think, however, the look on the cashier's face was more amusing.

    The thought of someone ripping off a fart that parts the hair of the person behind them and then says "excuse me" like they have some manners is hysterical to think about. The cashier's reaction would be priceless!

    Im sure Ive mentioned this before somewhere on the forum but the question of why farts never lose humor value caused me to reflect anew upon these posits:
    1. How would people consider farts if they could be seen but had no foul odor? Imagine a small colored cloud similar to a smoke bomb was emitted when you tooted. Everyone would be aware but there would be no negative olfactory consequence. Would people alter their diet to emit startlingly visual gaseous expulsions?
    2. What if farts had a pleasing fragrance? If you ripped a huge and powerful one with an especially large volume would you alert others to the fact? I another person noticed and found it to be exceptionally pleasing would they inform others and instruct them to come hither to intimately experience the scent?

    When presented with Pope Leo X's papal bull of excomunication, Martin Luther said something to the effect (I wish I could remember the exact quote) that he had learned more from the farting of pigs than from all of the edicts of the Church since Constantine.

    I am not hung up about farts, but I am civil enough not to share them if I can help it. Its not that I am ashamed to fart around folks, its just that I cannot force people to endure smells from my entrails.

    I have been living with my present girlfriend for ten years and I still refrain from gassing around her when I can. However when I am asleep at night she says rumbling occurs on my side of the bed and I am mortified about this.

    I had fish for dinner last night, and let's just say it's a good thing I only live with the cats, because I scared the sunrise out of them with the one I let go this morning.

    Ha ha!! As a kid we spent the night at my Uncle Bert's place and I was sleeping on the couch right outside their bedroom. Their siamese cat had crawled beneath their covers and was asleep. Uncle let out his beer/pizza/garlic sausage gas and the cat came out, choking and gasping. I was about 10 years old and laughed so hard I had to get up and go pee.

    It's even funnier when they try to blame the dog/cat.

    Speaking of which, my 11-year-old gray tabby occasionally passes silent ones that could curdle milk and peel paint. UGH,

    Lentil soup farts will probably give you the most bang for the buck.

    Locally, there is the infamous "Handkaese mit Musik" (small round cheese with music), which is EXTREMELY pungent both going in and coming out. Served with chopped onions, it guarantees a splendid time for all. Worse than taco farts, and kind of like Chinese food farts in that once you have been done farting for about an hour, you feel like farting some more.

    Egg farts are potent, but they don't even compare to White Castle farts. Their burgers aren't nicknamed sliders for nothing!

    They're trying to blame us.

    Found this classic while reading the Gross People thread. Talk about an interesting job interview, to say the least:

FARTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT I mean it was LOUD and long. Ahhh ive been waiting since the night before to let that one loose she says. She thanked me for my time and said shed be in touch.

    Holy Crap

    This has definitely been my experience. We had lentils yesterday and OMG, I almost ran out of the house to get away from myself!

    You'll soon starve if you avoid every food that we say makes stinky farts. My husband could drink water and it would make him fart. We call his asshole (no, not me, the other one) his pressure release valve.

    I have two farting stories. Actually I have more, but will tell two for now.

    It was my first full time job. Second day. I arrive at work, and my boss, trying to be cool leans back in his chair, puts his feet on his desk and accidently rips a huge fart. I managed to contain myself for about five seconds, thinking about being fired for laughing, then I could hold it no more. I laughed until tears were running down my face. I said "What a tuba butt". He started laughing too, and I knew I was going to like working for him. We are still friends and he still refers to himself as tuba.

    My second story came after I moved to South America. Many neighborhoods here have older retired type men who will stay awake at night and "guard" the area. Our guard liked to plunk his chair directly under our bedroom windows. He would wake us up farting all night long. My kids and I called him "Toots" One night, my boyfriend was spending the night. I was lying in bed awake, and he was sleeping next to me. Around 3am "Toots" ripped one and my boyfriend sat up in bed and told me I needed to go to the bathroom if I was going to do that. I kept protesting that I didnt do it, but he didnt believe me. Luckily I was exonerated when "Toots" ripped another one. My boyfriend was at the window in a milisecond yelling at "Toots" to keep his gas to himself, that people were trying to sleep. "Toots" took offense, my boyfriend went outside and the yelling woke up everyone in the neighborhood. "Toots" shoved my boyfriend, who unknown to "Toots" was a cop. "Toots" almost got arrested until I begged my boyfriend to let it go. I already stood out as the Gringa in the neighborhood. I didnt want to be known as the gringa who had "Toots" arrested for farting!
