you cant help farting sometimes and I bet he doesnt leap out of bed every time he er 'gets the wind up'

I think he should give you the Dutch Oven.

That'll learn you.

I don't believe partners should fart in front of each other, shows a total lack of disrespect and the old adage familiarity breeds contempt comes to mind.

It is not in the least sexy to fart in bed at all.

peggotty · 26/01/2011 21:38

lol!!!! Are you generally a couple prone to farting in bed then?

Dylthan · 26/01/2011 21:38

As long as you don't waft the sheets then I feel he has nothing to complain about.

wonderstuff · 26/01/2011 21:38

I couldn't cope with that. YANBU.

ILoveItWhenYouCallMeBoo · 26/01/2011 21:39

you can't hold what is not in your hand Wink

as my old dad would say.

how does he expect you to hold farts in when you are sleeping?

VeeBee3 · 26/01/2011 21:39

YANBU .... however I can thinks of more pleasant ways to christen a new bed! Wink

"It is not in the least sexy to fart in bed at all."

are we only to be sexy in bed? cant we just be... ourselves? Confused

faverolles · 26/01/2011 21:40

Fabbychic, if DH and I didn't indulge in the odd trump, we would both explode.
Fart gas kills bedbugs, so you would be preventing future infestations.
(I made that bit up btw, but your DH might be the gullible sort)

Ingles2 · 26/01/2011 21:41

so how you going to control that when you're asleep eh?

ILoveItWhenYouCallMeBoo · 26/01/2011 21:41

dutch oven: one person farts under the sheets then grabs otehr persons head and holds it under the sheets making them breathe in the fart. not pleasant.

Lovetheskinurine · 26/01/2011 21:43

Pack him in. YANBU.

imustbemadasaboxoffrogs · 26/01/2011 21:43

Can I just say only on MN

This sort of talk would not be tolerated on other forums

Lovetheskinurine · 26/01/2011 21:44

And can I add, 'parp' Grin

Mymblesson · 26/01/2011 21:44

Oh I think GUT would cope ;-)

QueenLaQueefer · 26/01/2011 21:45

What about fanny farts?

Are they allowed?

FabbyChic · 26/01/2011 21:45

You don't shit with the toilet door open, farting is like toiletting. You go somewhere private to let off.
