Mortified in the office!!!!!!

[oldgirl2]

Just happened.....speaking to a lovely guy in the office, mid pleasant chat, when yours truly lets out a loud (and unexpected, by both of us) fart........ (a la Jackson Lamb for those that know......) lovely guy in office pink and rather surprised (to put it mildly), me scarlet and gabbling.......... anyone else done anything similar, please make feel better.....(just told 24 year old daughter on facetime, who is now howling with laughter 😆)... as dp will be, when I tell him later. I'm just trying to hide behind my computer....

Ok I will be serious, do you really have no control over that, as I think that’s a medical issue, you should have sufficient muscle and also notice, be able to feel it, if you can’t and have no control that’s a concern

Should be easy with all the gas in😂

Well Im nearly 67 so maybe had a lot of luck so far 😂

Ahhh well thanks for all the replies, I'd no idea there was such a thing as 'fart fetishist' I've clearly missed out, will google it 😁 you learn something new every day! For those assuming I've weirdly made this up, beginning to wish I had now...as he sits pretty close to my desk. Possibly you are over thinking......for all the funny replies thanks for making my morning a little better. Will be burning the office down as suggested, resigning and seeking medical assistance also as suggested ......... thanks again...

Lol erm how old? ...So I can prepare myself (haha no I don't in front of people)

The only thing to do is follow up the fart with the question “more tea vicar ?”

Oh I love a good fart thread 😅 I was fart walking through the underpass near home and when I got to the fork in the path I realised that a young man had been walking a few paces behind me.
No wonder he took the other fork🤣🤣🤣

I am not a fetishist but I want to hear the tannoy story

A fart fetish is a thing?!

Yep you just bend over and announce you have done so with a trumpet quartet!

There is literally a fetish for everything

This. ^

Yes, sadly MN has piss trolls, shit trolls, period trolls and fart trolls.

And they're never short of people queuing up to tell them their stories.

Which I expect is why they're often so persistent.

🤣🤣🤣

🎶 Let it go 🎶 🤣🤣

I was coming on to search for threads about farting in Pilates for reassurance- but perhaps there are none for fear of being accused of a fetish.

I will just deal with it then

Someone did this to me walking from station last week. He was wearing headphones and didn't realise a) How loud his fart was and b) I was just a couple steps behind him. It was like one of those tik tok skits. I crossed the road.

There was a post on here the other day about someone who always farts in the office, and said HR wouldn't dare complain due to her age. Not saying it's the same poster!

I farted in the school assembly hall i was only 7 we were sat on the floor legs crossed was so loud .. I was sat next to my friend and said " Kim "

I was reading a post about etiquette a few days ago, and apparently you should never acknowledge a fart, never apologise, just carry on as normal, then you don't embarrass other people and they don't feel awkward, as they may think you didn't notice. I remembered today when my inlaws visited I got up off the sofa and parted, I didn't say anything and kept talking and actually it was all OK, nobody batted an eyelid. Just thought I'd tell you for the next time. 🤣😂🤣😂

@veryoldwoman before you go to Pilates, lay down and bring just your right knee up to your chest. Hold it there for at least a minute. It gently disperses gas. It works!

How do you fart over a tannoy! Were you sitting on it!

Whats 'parted' .... is it a combo of fart and pee? or worse?

Thank you for this. Will definitely give that a try.

I did this when I started working at a snooty national newspaper in front of about 5 new colleagues. One of them - who 15 years later is a good friend - pointed it out loudly and laughed. I could have died. However I survived. You will too!
