I can’t sleep so MNing in bed. DH asleep next to me. I am on my side turned away from him due to light from phone and suddenly a very loud and long fart (machine gun variety) escapes . Took me rather by surprise or I would have tried to suppress it!

DH jumps up, realises what it was and honestly you’d think I’d crapped the bed or something Hmm. He is disgusted and absolutely furious I woke him up as he has to be up for work early, as if I meant to, and has stormed off to sleep downstairs!

AIBU to think he’s being an arse!

Sorry I know it shouldn't but that just made me laugh 🤣

JovialNickname · 18/07/2021 01:43

You did machine gun fart at him to be fair Grin

Does it smell?

If so YABU

Topseyt · 18/07/2021 01:44

Of course he is being an arse. Farts like that are comedy gold.

Go and fart again in the living room now.

PurpleSunrise · 18/07/2021 01:48

Haha Grin

BedtimeFarter · 18/07/2021 01:50

No smell, mine rarely do thankfully, just long and loud. I’m generally good at holding them in.

I did find it hilarious that he was so angry about it which probably made it worse.

Still down there. Oh dear.

He is definitely the unreasonable one.

Didn't even smell.

It's not like you crouched over his face and did it in his mouth!

Rifalo · 18/07/2021 01:58

Hilarious 🤣

Aquamarine1029 · 18/07/2021 02:03

My husband and I would be laughing 😂

TrinityWaves · 18/07/2021 02:05

Baaaaaaa 😂😂😂😂😂

TeddyBearsPicnic89 · 18/07/2021 02:05

But did you snap first? Grin

Go down now and challenge him to a farting competition. To establish who can do the longest and loudest.
MaintainTheMolehill · 18/07/2021 02:13

Aw I'm sure he will laugh about it tomorrow.

I farted so loud in my sleep that I woke dh up but he just heard a loud noise and spent 10 minutes looking round the house to see what it was. I still haven't owned up Shock

petridishmystery · 18/07/2021 02:15

It’s probably just because it made him jump and took him out of a deep sleep, people generally aren’t at their most reasonable when that happens!

Let's just say that his did smell and I couldn't breathe. It was my parting gift after a long night of duvet wafting.

MingeofDeath · 18/07/2021 02:59

You probably frightened him out of his slumber. At least you didn't parp on his manhood.

Mypathtriedtokillme · 18/07/2021 03:02

Everyone farts, it’s a loud unexpected noise that’s quite funny really.

My 4 year old is the sleep machine gun farter champion in our household.

He’s unreasonable but being woken up from a deep sleep makes anyone a giant grumpy butthole.

NiceGerbil · 18/07/2021 03:02

He got a fright! Being waken up suddenly from a deep sleep is really disorientating.

FlamingVictoria · 18/07/2021 03:11

I can't even read this, I'm laughing so hard! Comedy gold. Proud of you OP!

@Megasausagehead I'm dying!

TomPinch · 18/07/2021 03:31

Put some Jerusalem artichokes in his dinner.

PonyPals · 18/07/2021 04:50

My DH farted last night in the kitchen and I ran out in fright thinking my DS was crying. DH thought it was so funny but I was really upset!!!

Horst · 18/07/2021 05:47

He should be thankful it didn’t smell. I don’t know what’s caused it but I can currently clear a room with people gagging.

I’m always farting at or on dh in bed I sleep facing the window.

ArrrMeHearties · 18/07/2021 05:52

Nothing better than an early morning farting competition, oh and I have them most mornings Grin

Marshmallow91 · 18/07/2021 06:05

I have IBS and I'm lactose intolerant.

I've managed to get my partner to leave the room we're in, exclaiming "what the fuck has died in your arse!"

Also as a side note, he does the loudest farts I've ever heard in the mornings. So we're even.

My 2 1/2 year old looks at me with such a twinkle in her eye and a massive grin when she does those big machine gun farts. It's impossible not to find it hilarious.
