Always seems to happen when I’m about to get into someone’s car. I’m cursed with clingy farts!

Three posts, and **lieu’s** not here yet?

I thought he’d smell this one a mile away.

Actually, MY underblanket farts aren’t bad at all. I think it’s cause the blankets act as a filter, soaking up the stank. The ones that drive me crazy are the ones in the morning after drinking beer the night before, and having eggs for breakfast.

I think they can ‘stick’ to your clothes. Maybe if you go outside, drop your pants, and _then_ fart it wouldn’t happen.
