It was kind of a normal one. Post here every time you fart please. Consider this the official fart census or something. ---

> [@Inner\_Stickler](#): > > Kind of a normal one? Yeah I’m sorry to say that I just can’t find the words to describe it other than to say it was fairly normal. Had a bit of the classic fart sound… but not like the really loud whoopie cushion psssfffftthhh sound, but not really the high pitched squeaky kind either. The one that’s kind of in between… has a bit of squeak, has a bit of the cheeks flapping sound to it… there was a bit of a punctuation in the middle of it too. So… overall, kind of a normal fart. ---

I dunno. Announcing your farts just seems like bragging over nothing. Now if you go over by the window, grab your cheeks, whistle out three octaves, and make the curtains move…well then and only then will we be impressed. ---

A good one last night that had me opening and closing the blankets, fan style, to circulate some air. The dog was looking at me like I was a sick F\*\*\*. :mad: ---

Is this like farding? Because I don’t wear make-up. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Make-up on a middle-aged guy. Living alone in the woods of Eastern Tennessee. Maybe some lip balm. Occasionally. … Oh wait… you said farTing. \Never mind!\ ---

The #Ijustfarted hashtag was trending on Twitter a little while ago. Are people really supposed to report all their farts? What if they’re away from the computer/cellphone/tablet/whatever people use to access the internet these days? ---

Anyone can fart, no big deal. Light the next off and set something on fire with it, like the curtains or a chair. Post a YouTube video of it. That would be impressive. ---

I’m not a fan of fart humour… but you have to admit, this is indeed a mundane and pointless thread. ---
