‘D’ P farting while he’s prepping food

[Easipeelerie]

He’s in the kitchen chopping meat and just let out 2 enormous farts (and quite deliberately, not like there was nothing he do about it)- doesn’t care and doesn’t think it’s a big deal. He’s in the kitchen prepping food,
Am I being unreasonable to not want to eat with him now. I find when he does this sort of thing that it’s so disrespectful and just unpleasant.

I'm reading the comments out to my husband in a Jane Austin voice and we are both dying of hysterics!!

"Absolutely dizGAHSTINng!"

I disagree.

@Easipeelerie I wouldn't like it, there's a time and a place, and in the kitchen while prepping food is not it 😂

Literally 😂😂

God if I sent my husband outside every time he needed to fart the poor sod would have to set himself up a little living area in the shed

Don’t think anyone ever got sick from someone else’s fart

You’ve hit the nail on the head. That is what’s required.

It's just farting, it's not like it's going to do any harm to your food 😂 this wouldn't bother me. DH occasionally lets off a really wiffy one in his sleep which creeps out from under the duvet and this makes me irrationally annoyed even though he's obviously not doing it on purpose!

Blame it on the sprouts.

I bet you do fart in reality. If you were in the middle of something that would spoil if you abandoned it, I suspect the reality is that you would let a fart go without really noticing.

Loving the image of you and a succession of lovers dutifully charging outdoors to fart, irrespective of the weather.

I could never be sexually attracted to someone who does this.

Go to the bathroom 😂We have a chair in my hallway so I can accompany my husband to the toilet and have somewhere to sit while we have a long chat, this is a good reminder that some people are living very different lives to me 😂

He's asleep 🤣 how do you know you don't let off smelly ones in your sleep?! We've been married 35 years and he's absolutely lovely - he's seen me through much worse things than a nocturnal fart and still finds me attractive!

really, if he can't just relax at home then where can he?

Using the word lover gives me the ick more than farting.

You are being incredibly precious

You know the food he was preparing was all going to end up as poo eventually, right? And probably loudly announce its imminent departure for the coast before it left the station?

It's preparing. Not 'prepping'

Sorry but the number of people who get worked up about farting is seriously weird. It's just wind. You do it, if it's loud you say excuse me.

Some people on MN really are uptight

Many people can relax without emitting offensive flatulence.

When did "relaxing" come to equal "zero effort or consideration for others"???

Well, I would think the farther needs to get more of a grip, literally. It’s certainly not polite and I would expect an ‘excuse me’,

Its not great but as long as there's no follow through, not too much of an issue.

How do you know we’re not preppers, and he was farting all over my emergency supplies?

The thing is, I wasn’t to know if there was follow through or not. It sounded like there could have been.
