The only thing I can think of that comes even remotely close is sometimes smelling my pjs to see if they need to be thrown in the wash-I think it’s stupid to throw them in after one wearing.
Oh, and if I’m wearing some really good smelling hand cream, sometimes I’ll smell my hands-like Warm Vanilla Sugar from Bath and Body Works. It smells like freshly baked sugar cookies.
If I fart under the covers, I’ll poke my head in and see what it’s like. I’ll usually recoil in horror with a “damn, that smells like rotten camel ass”.
I’ve lit a fart on fire. Nice, little blue flame (depending on the fart). I don’t remember much of a smell.
According to my Uncle Craig, who majored in biology, it is indeed possible, and he’s seen some idiots in college who ended up singing off ALL of their ass hair.
I think a most efficatious method of capturing farts would be to sit in a bathtub with a thin layer of scentless surficant on the surface, or maybe glycerine. Wait to fart, and capture the resulting bubbles, which should be pure fart. Hold one in your hand, and break it with your nose. I can’t image getting any closer.
I’ll report that I have smelled my own farts many times, and I am sure that Wee Bairn isn’t alone in this. After all the negative comments, I think they are holding back.
Although, in my case I smelled them because I was curious what they smelled like, and what I had eaten that caused them, not because I enjoyed the smell.
