I’m curious about why my thread asking if Lieu was still around to share fart stories/if there were other good ones around was slammed shut and locked. Given the range of other threads that could be considered tasteless (penis size, anal sex, bottoming out, etc), I’m curious as to why a fart thread would be considered censorable? Is there a new rule I’m unaware of and have violated? C’mon!

I think one thread on this topic is enough to show us your outrage.

Closed.
