Sheesh. Not rude, that’s the sort of thing rest rooms are for. The conniption guy desperately needs something worthwhile to think about.
Beats farting into the clam dip.
Certainly it was rude. Etiquette demands that he should have offered his neighbor a finger to pull before breaking wind.
All of which reminds me of the two times I’ve gone into a bathroom (at airports, for some reason) where someone in a stall was grunting, gasping, making gross noises in the toilet… and absolutely peeling the paint off the walls with the smell. I mean, (1) I sympathize with people who have such problems and (2) am deeply appreciative that I don’t but (3) OMFG I am turning green just thinking about it.
Fart proudly! And often!
The guy was a jerk. I usually let one rip while draining the lizard.
No, it’s a natural physiologic process that can be controlled voluntarily by squeezing your asshole shut.
Dare I ask what “complicated flats” might be?
BTW, according to Miss Manners you should not say “excuse me” when you fart.
I’m guessing a shart would qualify.
I remember the phrase “pinstriped farts” in something I read about the men’s rooms in New York offices. Amuses me still.
Is there evidence that Kegels actually help? I read that it’s a bunch of hooey. I had a baby recently and was sick of everyone telling me to do Kegels.
>> So, is it rude to fart at the urinal? I say no. What say you?
In that situation, not really. That guywas a prude. And a prick.mAnd rude.
Same goes for at a ball stadium (definitely not rude) or large public place (mostly not rude). Certainly not worth a mention, and then THAT would be rude
In a small office’s restroom where everyone knows each other? It’s a little bit rude.
Kegels do strengthen the pelvic floor. So it can mitigate some forms of stress incontinence, and can certainly give a woman more control over her pelvic musculature, especially in terms of tightening the vagina. This is felt to be worthwhile for a number of circumstances.
But if incontinence is due to bladder or uterine prolapse, Kegels won’t do much.
So, it depends on what you’re trying to accomplish.
Not rude. Funny? Yes.
A man spoke while in the restroom at the urinals with strangers?
What the hell?
Was this guy wearing a monocle that popped out from the impertinent flatulence?
Jeez - women make all kinds of noise when in the public restrooms - I can’t imagine anyone being rude enough to make wise cracks about it. Human bodies make noise - we all pass gas, burp, sneeze, etc. etc.
Good for them I wasn’t the one they felt compelled to razz - I don’t react well to snobs with superiority complexes. 
At work I’m in the restroom. I’m at the sink washing my hands. A coworker (friend) comes in, walks into the stall for about ten seconds then walks back out. He’s now at the sink with me washing his hands. I said to him "Man, that was quick.’ His response was: “Yeah, I just had to wipe, I was feeling greasy back there.”
“Whoa! Dude, TMI.”
This.
I never talk to another man while we both have our dicks in our hands.
That is all.
I misread the thread title as “farting at the funeral” which is higher on the rudeness scale, if you can avoid it.
After rereading the subject line, I just had a mental image of a guy standing with his back to the urinal, literally farting at it (as opposed to farting while peeing at it). Don’t know if I’d call that rude, but it would certainly be odd.
