I'm on holiday right now, and I let one slip in the public jacuzzi earlier. Not as bad as my DS, who announced to everyone in the pool that he had had a wee because it's easier than walking to the toilet.

I once let a real stinker out next to the chilled cabinet in Asda. My dm sniffed the air and said 'ew somethings gone off!' I just agreed. A few months with dp and I let out a silent deadly one that I wasn't going to own up to. Just as the smell hit an elderly lady shot past in a motorised scooter and I'm ashamed to say I agreed with do when he blamed it on her.

This is the kind of thread I joined mumsnet for...apparently one should apologise for top wind but ignore bottom wind.

I find it funny as hell and so does my not so dear husband, my granny, my mum and her partner, my son and all of my good friends.

We all fart. May as well laugh about it. It's fucking hilarious.

I once briefly inflated my knickers with a fart, 'twas most disturbing.

Ds2 giggled for 10 mins when I recounted the story to him, then again we do enjoy a good parp in this house.

I am queen of the mustard gas under duvet fart.
I am such a child Grin

THIS IS HILARIOUS! I have a wind problem that i let loose with a smile at home but just about control it at work. My dp farts very rarely, like every two months! I wonder why his body doesn't produce as much wind as mine and his diet is awful.

SaucyJack · 23/03/2016 23:02

Whoever eschewed it, brewed it.

UmbongoUnchained · 23/03/2016 23:14

Me and my husband are not currently living together (Long story) but he did one in my kitchen this evening that was so bad that I banished him back to his own house.
I did find it absolutely hilarious but you can't tell him that

memyselfandaye · 24/03/2016 00:25

reservedlaydee I read somewhere or maybe I heard it on Embarrassing Bodies, if you never trump, or think you never do, its because you fart all night in your sleep. Grin

LifeofI · 24/03/2016 00:34

lol and looked at you. When it comes to farts and people accusing, i always get accused cause i laugh but its never me I'm just childish

Abecedario · 24/03/2016 00:41

I let out a very loud fart in a yoga class last week. It was in a tiny studio, my arse was in the air in some pose or other and it took me very much by surprise. I got the giggles but nobody else acknowledged it. And now I can never go back.

There are several correct responses to a fart:

'Speak up caller, you're through'
"More tea, vicar?'
'A bit more choke and she would have started'
'A confident appeal by the Australians there'
'Keep shouting sir, we'll find you'
etc etc.

Very rarely do I laugh out loud at anything on here. But 'Confident appeal by the Australians there' made me chortle for a good few minutes. I am going to practice my best Richie Benaud voice for the next time ''er indoors' lets fly.

TheCricketWidow · 24/03/2016 06:31

Hilarious clinton, really made me giggle! Definitely going to pinch those.

KenDoddsDadsDog · 24/03/2016 06:38

My gran used to say in a faux posh voice "Who's let Polly out of the cage?"

Stanky · 24/03/2016 06:47

My dad used to look up and say "Oh, there goes concord."

glueandstick · 24/03/2016 06:50

My newborn has awful wind. But reserves it for meeting new people mainly.

This is x... Little silence. Handed over for cuddle.. Oh isn't she cute.. Everything silent and being cuddled.. Earth shattering fart erupts. Little smile (bad sign) more farting then falls sound asleep.

honeylulu · 24/03/2016 06:54

Once felt a massive one brewing in Debenhams just as i got to front of queue. "Ha" I thought "I'll let it seep out as they are serving me, then escape before anyone realises it's me". Seeped silently. Alas then the assistant said "sorry to keep you waiting, I just need to change the till roll." Arghhh! It stank!

Chiggers · 24/03/2016 07:09

Just a few links for those big kids who can't help but laugh at farts Grin

GastonsPomPomWrath · 24/03/2016 07:13

We have a 3 year old who can't help but share. It doesn't matter where we are, if she farts, she let's EVERYONE know.

"Mummy. Mummy, I farted"

"Mummy, you're not listening. I said I farted"

"MUMMY!"
"shhhh dd, I heard you"
"Good, cuz it SSSSSTTTIIINNNKKKSSSS"

x2boys · 24/03/2016 07:20

ooh thats sweet glue little newborn farts!

glueandstick · 24/03/2016 07:29

There is nothing little about her farts. I had to turn the tv up yesterday.

RidersOnTheStorm · 24/03/2016 07:44

I do love a good fart thread.

cbigs · 24/03/2016 07:49

Aww op! You can't have expected anything else from mn on this one surely?! Clinton thoroughly amused by your suggestions upon hearing a guff .
