Have you ever farted in public?

I wonder, if you keep holding back do you eventually burp it out?

Interesting thought once your username is factored in. 😉

The CD certainly will poke fun at ones labeled as farters. I stay neutral in this discussion however. A famous farters words (and I am quoting)

Why fart and waste it when you can burp and taste it!

God I WISH people turned on the tap when they used the washroom at work. It's quite disturbing listening to all the sounds (ya they natural, so?) and looking people in the eye afterwards.

Loudly? Accidently -- at least a few times over my life. It's only been around people I know, so it's just kind of "whatever." A little laughing and not wanting to go near the general area for a few minutes 😉

Nope. I excuse myself and go to the rest room. I think passing gas in public is a guy thing.

I don't think I have ever experienced a group of women sitting around seeing who can be the loudest when it comes to flatulence.

And yes, sometimes in a public rest room, I flush the toilet if I need to pass gas to block the sounds.
 
Me and my friend were leaving work at 7am ( We worked night shift together) as we were going down the escalator, 2 older women were coming up the opposite side. When they were about 20feet away i ripped one so lound, they both got startled. Pwned :-D
 
I was at Kohl's the other day trying some shoes on (needed something cheap for work that I don't care how dirty & torn up they get).
It was pretty empty in there. I had to fart, so I looked around and there was no one there, so I let it rip. DAYUM did it ever stink! And not 5 seconds later did a couple walk over to where I was sitting to look at the shoes and very quickly walk away.
 
Best bet is to look very angrily at the nearest person (unless he's bigger than you) and say "WTF??"

My aunt is pushing 70 now and is a stereotypical little old lady. She has gas like you wouldn't believe and not a qualm about letting it out whenever, wherever, usually at pretty respectable volume. At least they don't stink. She says its her osteoporosis medicine.

The sink thing is funny though, I was in a doctors office waiting room once when an old woman finished up her appointment and used the restroom. Unfortunately the doctor didn't see me right away. I could hear her turn on the sink full blast, then completely drown it out with the loudest bout of what must have been diarrhea I've ever heard, including my own. Nasty stuff. I pretended I hadn't heard a thing and buried my face in a magazine as she made her way out as if she hadn't just defiled the whole building.
 
quite a few times, but the ones that get the stink eye are the ones that *look* like they passed gas eg, the homeless dude on the train, the scruffy looking teen, etc

I released an SBD at work, and while there are other people in my office, the cubes are set apart and theres good ventilation in there. However, this time, I released it, and not 30 seconds later, in walks an executive from our sister company right into it. It must've hit him like a brick, but he didn't flinch.

When my spouse was in high school and college, he used to work in a grocery store. On more than one occasion, he pointed at the back of some innocent little old lady as she left with her groceries and made everyone think she was responsible for the stench that he had just made.
 
I farted (loudly and completely by accident) during my first date with my Wife. To make matters worse, her Mom was standing right next to me when it happened 😱

We were sitting on steps in front of my Wife's house BS-ing. We decided to go into the house and when I tried to pull myself up using the railing, FWAAAAAP, all hell broke loose. I wanted to laugh so damn bad but I tried to play it off like it never happened. Later that night, my girlfriend/wife laughed her ass off at me while we were alone. Her Mom never said a thing until last year (15 years later) when we were all at a wedding and half drunk. She told the whole table (around 10 people....some of which I had just met that night) and they were laughing so hard they almost pissed their pants. I wasn't pissed, I was laughing too. Why, you ask, was I laughing??? Well, farts are fvcking funny!!! 🙂

Well thank you SkyKing! I am honored to be a part of the select few who have gone to that place where few return from such a vulgar display of social ineptness (for a second date that is). 😀
