Have you ever witnessed someone else give a tremendously loud or long bodily function in public?
Doesn’t have to be a friend or family member or co-worker, just someone random you happen to be around. Maybe you were with others or maybe it just wasn’t in an “informal” place to do it.
Much earlier this summer I was eating in the workplace kitchen with a co-worker who was like 50 or so years old. We just talked and stuff.
And then he farted.
And I really really really really REALLY tried SO HARD not to laugh.
There wasn’t any excuse or indication that it was coming, no complaint about being bloated – nothing. Just a massive maybe 3-second fart. And he just kept talking and talking.
I don’t know – maybe you reach a certain age when you really don’t need an excuse to be gassy – you just do it.
Have you ever cracked up or said something or just held it in pretending not to notice?

I am happy to say no. lol
Aside from my own gassy moments I have never witnessed anyone in public let one rip. haha
However, that said, something about really old people, they tend to fart as the go, my grandmother used to take a few steps and it was like a few little rocket jets went off. Maybe inadvertent flatulence helps propel older folks.
A wise old man once said to me “Where ever you may be, let your air go free!”
I am a little more restrained than that.
But his meaning was clear.
When you get down to it, how liberating is it to be so personally comfortable that you can be able to fart anywhere and not give a shit about what people think.
@josie As long as you’re actually not giving the shit, we’re cool.
I was at the home of a friend, there were about eight women gathered for a meeting, we all knew each other. My friend farted and it just went on and on, I had never heard anything like it before, the look on her face was priceless, mouth open and eyes wide open in disbelief. When all had gone quiet we all just laughed and laughed and laughed, it was great fun.
I farted on santa’s lap one time as a kid, just a little gift in return…least I could do.
@ucme Occupational hazard for Santa I reckon.
I was examining a patients hemorrhoid/ anal fissure. It looked really odd (yes, even given the circumstances), and I was taking my sweet time. I was puzzling over it as I left the room, only to have my reverie interuppted by single loud fart from him. I laughed because I realized then while I was examining, he was holding it I. Had he not, he would have farted on my face.
Ever been to Wal-Mart at 3am?
@drhat77 If I was a physician I would sub-out the rear end work to a specialist.
Infact, I’d make sure my colleague was a proctologist. Right next door.
Looks like you got your head out of the clouds just in time. lol
Yoga class is often good for a loud fart.
Go to China and eat locally. You will see all of that and more.
@Adagio Yeah, that & the fact they probably despise kids.
A couple of years ago I went to a monkey sanctuary not far from where I live. A number if us were looking into one of the cages when the man in front of me let out a loud fart! My boyfriend had to escort me away as I was laughing so much!!! I’m still very childish when it comes to farts!
@trailsillustrated
Hey….I love China!
I never witnessed anyone farting in restaurants. I did steer clear of the yellow sausages and fried duck heads on a stick at the night markets though. lol
@ucme I waited in line for a hour to see Santa at the mall and I peed myself on his lap… I don’t for long line ups any more… not even for an Iphone5.
I’m in the doctors office waiting room RIGHT NOW and the guy across from me just let a big one rip.
on his defense he just had a colonoscopy.
When I was about 20 I worked for Boeing Computer Services. I was walking back to the tape room. One of my co-workers was coming toward me. He farted really, really loudly. I politely ignored it. But then I walked into to the cloud. OMG!!! It was thick, suffocating and smelled horrible. My manners fled me and I involuntarily cried out, “Jesus Christ Orlan!!!!”
He just grinned, embarrassed.
