LOL. We had a little terrier that we had shamed so much about farting. She would quietly get up and sneak out of the room with her little ears slicked back and a shamed look on her face, before anyone could exclaim her name.
Not as bad as my sister’s M-I-L. She had a little dog that would sit under the dining table waiting for scraps to be passed to her when they were gathered for meals at the M-I-L’s house. Sister said the M-I-L kept a box of kitchen matches near her plate to strike when the little dog broke wind. You can imagine how my sister looked forward to their infrequent meals at her M-I-L’s house. lol.
This may explain why Mel Brooks’ character in Blazing Saddles was named Gov. LaPetomaine. For 33 years now I figured it was a takeoff on Ptomaine food poisoning!
There is a good reason the MAN’s bathroom in this house is AKA the toxic waste dump zone.
I got pinged to this thread by someone....and I want to know why.
I dunno.
Are you a tard?
;-)
Here's one back atcha, Jurassic Fart.
Dang it - all the job listing said was "participate in a scientific study." Nothing about getting a tube shoved up my pooper or sniffing somebody's pinto bean flatulence. I gotta have a talk with my career counselor.
That is what "participate in a scientific study" means.
Ping to posts 61 & 68.
LOL
Somewhat interesting, I suppose, but, come on, what kind of guy devotes his life to human flatulence?
I read yesterday that Aetna has decided not to cover the common drug that makes colonoscopies comfortable for the patient. This is actually a lifesaving drug, since people are now much more willing to go have a colonoscopy—unless they have Aetna. Added to Aetna’s willingness to cover any abortion for any reason, this would make Aetna the thinking person’s last choice.
There was a young lady from Sparta
Who was known as a champion Farta.
From the cheeks of her a$$
Came Bach’s B Minor Mass
And selections from La Traviata.
So few, and far between.
LOL Thanks, I needed that!
Joseph Pujol was born in Marseille. He was one of five children of François (a stonemason and sculptor) and Rose Pujol. Soon after he left school he had a strange experience while swimming in the sea. He put his head under the water and held his breath, whereupon he felt an icy cold penetrating his rear. He ran ashore in fright and was amazed to see water pouring from his anus. A doctor assured him that there was nothing to worry about.
When he joined the army he told his fellow soldiers about his special ability, and repeated it for their amusement, sucking up water from a pan into his rectum and then projecting it through his anus up to several yards. He then found that he could suck in air as well. Although a baker by profession, Pujol would entertain his customers by imitating musical instruments, and claim to be playing them behind the counter. Pujol decided to try his talent on the stage, and debuted in Marseille in 1887. After his act proved successful, he proceeded to Paris, where he took the act to the Moulin Rouge in 1892.
Some of the highlights of his stage act involved playing a flute through a rubber tube in his anus, farting sound effects of cannon fire and thunderstorms as well as farting La Marseillaise. He could also blow out a candle from several yards away.[1] His audience included Edward, Prince of Wales, King Leopold II of the Belgians and Sigmund Freud.[2]
Cont’d at Wiki. ;-)
I may never eat bread again.
A low-carbohydrate diet will nearly eliminate gas production, and other diet caused problems as well.
