dh once singed my eyebrows with one of his farts it smelt so bad

Same muscles control farting as prevent you being incontinent - or at least mine do....

fortunecookie · 29/08/2007 21:39

I fart.

spugs · 30/08/2007 13:17

i have been known to fart occasionally myself, the difference being however that mine don't smell like rotting meat and i don't waft them in anyone else's direction!

My DP is dreafull, his don'r smeel so much but they rattle the bloody walls they are that loud and he has to make such a show about it, stopping mid walk to bend slighlty then let rip.

The night time ones always smell and my bedroom constantly smells like man farts.

Then of all things he expects me to have sex with him after doing one........................................... how romantic

Blokes do love to waft.

I went out with one bloke (not for long i may add) he farted then smelt his seat as he claimed he liked to 'smell his own brand.' [vom]

Try teaching teenage boys. They fart all the time...and they think it is hilarious.........

Tortington · 30/08/2007 13:32

i think that most people can control their farts and "oops i just shat misel'" is poor.

good manners demands they lave the room cand count to ten

No. YANBU. But I am notoriously unamused when it comes to farts. I just don't see why they are a. funny b. of interest. And when DH makes a joke out of them I get cross. My children all find them funny so I am totally isolated. 'Tis tragic honestly.

So to modify my first answer - YABU to object to him farting per se, but no YANBU to object to him making a big production out of them and not attempting to suppress them until he's away from all other living creatures!

I want to build a fart room for DH....or perhaps considering the rest of my family are as bad, a fart protection zone for me

Charlee · 30/08/2007 13:34

I always ask DP to leave the room but he just laughs and thinks im joking. He has one friend who comes round to play xbox [yawn] who do some rancid farts and is really proud of them.

fortunecookie · 30/08/2007 13:36

I'm glad I didn't kill this thread with my confession!

Letting rip whenever & wherever you want is NOT an option. YANBU at all!

divastrop · 30/08/2007 17:39

'i think that most people can control their farts and "oops i just shat misel'" is poor'

i wish i could control my farts.i have never shat myself though(apart from once,during childbirth)

PippiLangstrump · 30/08/2007 18:05

i have never laughed so much on a thread!!

I could see my DH in all of yours: the stopping mid walk, the proud smirk, etc.
i do get so cross because he knows 9 times out of 10 they are going to be foul so he should go to another room and not come back for ten min otherwise he often takes it back with him.

can I also add that he is obviously so proud of DD when she does one and even likes to smell mine (I am pg at the mom so sometimes I cannot help it) which makes me vomit!!!

honestly...

spugs · 30/08/2007 18:47

ugghh men, why do we bother with them again!!

I love this thread. I love jokes about farts, prefer them to jokes about sex.
Hubby and I try to outdo each other. I'm in knots laughing at this thread!
