AIBU to avoid church because of DH’s flatulence 🤢

[itseasybeingcheesy]

DH has a rotten stomach at the mo from overeating at the pub yesterday and the house smells awful as a result. He think I’m being OTT by saying we shouldn’t go to church and inflict that on others.

I know this is disgusting but please back me up? I’m not BU am I?

lol at holding in farts. those days are gon for those of us with IBD.
I really don't understand this childish 'eww its disgusting' nonsense around wind. it's a natural bodily function which every single one of us do. If we could all grow up a bit about it, those with IBS/IBD and other gut issues might not spend our lives feeling embarrassed about something we can' help.

I am reminded of the Reeves and Mortimer two farting men. Take him to church. But don't sit next to or down wind of him

Hilarious thread. I think you should go to church and have him let silent odiferous farts out all the way just to see what happens... could range from mild disapproval through accusations and public shaming to a full scale church explosion. What fun.

Why are people asking why people finding farting disgusting? Is that serious? 😂😂 people find it disgusting because it often smells like shit! It would be much easier if it didn’t and it smelt of roses and then I’m sure people wouldn’t mind, but it’s an involuntary reaction to be disgusted by it because of the smell! I understand people might have medical issues but have they been to see a doctor about those issues? It’s really very antisocial and unpleasant for everyone else. I nearly vomited last week because someone walked past me in a cloud of the most pungent smelling gas of all time. I was genuinely retching. Yuck

" I was genuinely retching. Yuck"

What a disgusting person you are. Couldn't you control your retching? Do you see the point I'm making?

@crispysausagerolls........i'm not saying its pleasant. it not. but its also not something that is controllable. I just find the whole 'hee hee fart jokes are funny' or 'ewww thats gross' by grown adults extremely tedious and childish. @Gwenhwyfar makes a great point.

If I was retching often and it was bothering other people (which it may well do, it’s not pleasant) I would go to a doctor to find out how to stop doing it.

He needs to be more aware of what he eats the day before to avoid this.

When I was a child there was a nun sitting 2 rows in front of us in Mass who farted really loudly. My brother and I dissolved into silent laughter while Mum tutted at us. We did wonder if it was blasphemous to fart in Mass for a long time after!

"If I was retching often and it was bothering other people (which it may well do, it’s not pleasant) I would go to a doctor to find out how to stop doing it."

And the dr would immediately give you magic pills to make it not happen again you think?

I'm sorry but this thread has tickled me. "I gave him a lie in for Father's Day and all he's done is farted", saying he's a fire hazard around the candles 😂 brill.

I'm sorry he's got this complaint and I'm sympathetic for you having to live with it today, it's not great is it?

The old saying of better out than in might apply??

However, yanbu! I've got an adult DS who is disabled and incontinent, we've not been nappy free since 1993, I'm the queen of smell banishing! 😊

, when you're at the stage of being so sick with crohn's you need parts of your intestines removed because you can't eat or drink, some passing wind is really the least of your concerns.

I was in Dublin. In a bar, having been drinking Guinness most of the evening when I dropped the most SBD sulphurous stench you could imagine. A man accused my DP who protested his innocence and pointed at me, and the man refused to accept that a girl could produce such an evil smell. I was 😇

I highly doubt that every single person on this thread who has happily admitted to farting out and about has this serious a problem. Or any problem. I don’t know why people always have to bring up having a medical condition as if that blanket excuses everyone else. Obviously, as with almost everything, if you have a medical condition and it can’t be helped then it can’t be helped. Just as much as someone with a colostomy bag can’t help it!

Everybody Farts - The Farting Song | Funny Songs for Kids by Howdytoons

There is plenty of Biblical support for farting in thine pew.

Ephesians 6:16

In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one

Isaiah 26:17:

As a pregnant woman about to give birth writhes and cries out in her pain, so were we in your presence, Lord. We were with child, we writhed in labor, but we gave birth to wind.

Revelation 7:9:

Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne

Judges 1:14

When she came to him, he incited her to ask her father for a piece of land. As she sat on the ass, she broke wind, and Caleb said, ‘What did you mean by that?’

My brother once let rip in church much to the horror of the row of nuns behind.

My DH used to tell me about a colleague at his previous workplace whose farts used to be of the 'SBD' variety (Silent But Deadly). He would always deny it was him but they all knew it was.

I haven't had the problem in a long time, but there have been times when it hasn't been possible to keep it in, it was very embarrassing and I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me. If you haven't had the problem then you just don't realise what it can be like for other people. They're not doing it for fun, it's humiliating.

OP your husband need to be going to the G.P, its not normal to stink out a house after a meal out. He might have IBS or a serious medical problem.I'd be telling him to go.
Its not funny really if hes got bowel cancer or something is it?

Am I the only one who sees the word 'flatulence' in the title and just can't resist having a look?

I didn't realise so many people can't hold them in. I certainly can.

God made your husband and God also made farts so I think he could tolerate your husband releasing god's gift in his house of worship.

I am a farter and will pass wind with my nearest & dearest in the room I’m afraid! Obv at work if I feel one brewing I’ll go to the loo but one did sneak out the other day when I was saying bye to a colleague in the car park. She was too polite to say anything! Trouble is they do sometimes sneak out, and those are generally of the silent but deadly variety. The loud ones tend not to stink. Let’s say I have some issues around my digestive system which probably do contribute to my gassy nature!

We used to have flatulence tubes in hospital to ease a patients windy suffering. Maybe you should invest in one of those.
