I thoroughly enjoyed it. Not just the OP but the responses too. Some hilarious people on here.

Really? There were back in the day, but I rarely see a very funny thread now.

I’ve just spent 10 minutes sniggering 🙈

I liked the poster who thought that because Harry can be short for the name Harold that Barry was short for Barold. Still makes me laugh now. I think someone has Barold as their user name.

Just read it, hilarious.

FangsForTheMemory · 21/04/2024 22:58

I found it funny and still do.

TheBell · 21/04/2024 22:55

It was funny at the time !

You may have snapped and farted but I much prefer screaming at the Sistine Chapel.

That was also unfunny bullshit.

UnionRep1 · 21/04/2024 22:49

None of these ‘classics’ were even funny.
So much on here is hilarious- but not these.

walnutcoffeecake · 21/04/2024 22:49

It was not funny at all i just could not see where it was funny.

I think, like many posts on here, it was contrived

From memory there's a bit of pattern with this one, T-Rex arms and 'owling'.

Deadpan dropping in weird phrases, sitting back and letting the confusion take hold, coming back all naive and wondering what the fuss is about.

Sure, but it’s one of two things:

Either a genuine poster who thought it necessary to add, in the middle of her story, that she farted, or:

A troll.

But it doesn’t seem that it was a typo.

Definitely wasn’t a typo because the sentence wouldn’t make sense anyway. Still funny to me

This is the internet. You don’t ever know when people are telling the truth or lying. I still laugh either way😆

Yep. Shame really, classics used to be full of genuine posts.

I never understood the hilarity, what was it a typo for.?

I don't know what it was a typo for, or what was meant. But it was so out of place that it was funny.

shuffleofftobuffalo · 21/04/2024 21:51

It also made me laugh out loud at the time but it's not OMG funniest thing ever. In the moment it was funny that she'd made an apparent typo and she came back with a deadly serious explanation for the farting.

Chickenwing2 · 21/04/2024 21:48

It made me laugh out loud. Explaining to DH why I'm laughing made me sound very silly though Grin

ButterflyKu · 21/04/2024 21:35

I’ve just had a read through it again😂😂 it’s the fact that the OP just carried on with her mundane story and came back with updates. She really didn’t understand why everyone was commenting on that particular bit. Bless her, I wonder how she’s doing

ButterflyKu · 21/04/2024 21:33

It’s not dying with laughter funny. However, the reason why I found it funny is the fact that OP came back to clarify that she had IBS and had indeed farted. If I remember correctly, she didn’t even seem to find it funny herself which was even more confusing.

I just think it’s funny that someone can say ‘I snapped and farted’ and carried on with the sentence like it was entirely normal😂 people are strange!

Starbugg · 21/04/2024 21:32

Not funny at all. I don’t understand why it’s so popular.
