What's your favorite thing about farts?

In light of the fact that my “I just farted” thread was too mundane and pointless even for MPSIMS (an utter shame, really), I figured I’d create a more structured thread conducive to worthy discussion.

In my humble opinion, everyone likes at least something about farts. Whether it’s the way they sound, or the feeling of relief after letting one rip, there’s something for everyone to enjoy about a good fart.

So, what’s your favorite thing about a fart?

Really, I like most of these things. But the feeling of relief after you unload a really big gas vent, man, that’s fantastic, isn’t it?

Scaring a pet with a fart is a wonderful thing but now the only pets I have are fish and a gecko, neither of whom give a shit. I’m not sure sure geckos can hear.

I like. Good. FartsandIcannot lie…

Actually, I’ve come to think of farting as one of my hobbies. I’m good at it and I enjoy it; it let’s me be me.

There are lots of different kinds of farts: the full throaty ones (my favorite,) the thin balloon-neck ones, the wet ones (uh-oh) and the ones that sound like a comment in a conversation (maybe are.)

If farts had color I’d paint the full throaty ones yellow. Don’t know why.

P.S. My farts don’t smell anymore.

I think.

I enjoy making my family gasp and run away from me while saying Stinky Mom!

Plus they can warm up the bed on a cold winter’s night. Hey, my husband always tells me to warm up the bed for him, he didn’t specify how.

The sound of course! Most good humour stems from the sound rather than the smell.

With my ex, I would often play “turtle”.

Thats where, while shes asleep in bed next to you, when you feel the big one on its way, you quickly encapsulate her with the bed sheets in an airtight manner, then let it rip. (like a turtle retreating in its shell).

Ps i miss my ex…very pretty, and we never argued. No idea why she left.

they incorporate all the sciences; especially biochemistry, chemistry, physics, geology.

Otherwise known as a Dutch oven

They help spread Whirrled Peas.

I always heard the smell was so the hard-of-hearing may also enjoy them.

Could it be that you gassed her? ROTFLMAO

Before my first prostate exam, my farts sounded like a oboe. Now they sound like a french horn.

I like the sound.

The relief. Especially one of those long ones that make your pants fit a bit better.

I chose “sound.” I’ve been known to make a stuffed chair seat resonate like a drumhead when I activate the ole ass annunciator.

HO man… those are the best (and kind of the worst in a way too)

As George Carlin once said “Farts are shit without the mess.”

I like to startle the cat. He’ll be sleeping on my lap, and I’ll need to get up so I let one rip. He jumps up, looks around like WTF?? then runs off.

A good fart can be life saving. Really.

Intestines keep producing gas during a scuba dive. The added water pressure at depth compresses those gas bubbles, but as the diver ascends the gas starts to expand. If not released the gas does cause pain and might cause injury. A good fart is just what the dive instructor ordered.

See:
Gastrointestinal Barotrauma

emphasis mine

Losing consciousness underwater is not good.

Friends don’t let friends scuba dive without farting. The life you save may be your own.

Yep, when you force your dog (known for his own brand of stinky farts) to move off the couch, you know you have achieved victory.
