Gas Passers Sitting Happy (Consider it the anti-whoopee cushion)

It's the GasBGon flatulence filter, and it's helping provide relief for thousands of gas passers who have cleared rooms or blamed the dog for far too long.

"People tell us, 'Thank you for giving my life back. Now I can go out in public again,'" Sharron Huza, the cushion's creator, said in an interview. "They'll bring it with them to the movie theatre, to work, in the car or on the airplane."

Huza said more than 1,000 cushions have been sold in just over a year on the market. The company has been approached by people interested in taking GasBGon products into Belgium, Britain, Asia and Canada, according to James Huza, the company president.

"Second-hand flatulence knows no borders," he said.

The Huzas, a husband-and-wife team, say the cushion uses charcoal liner technology to filter out both malodorous smells and head-turning noises. The fabric is washable, and a removable foam filter muffles sounds while the activated carbon absorbs odors...

...Cushions can take about 450 toots before they need a filter change, and come in several fashion patterns with names like "The Musical Solo" and "Silent But Deadly."...

For this technology to work effectively on either of the Clintons, they will have to incorporate it into a muzzle.

Was just thinking about sending one to Sadaam...

What's the fun in that? Clearing a room is part of the enjoyment of letting a SBD rip... First one that smelt it, delt it, dont'cha know...

[rightwingreligiousfanatic]

I don't know why this made me think of you guys...

I do.....

Hmmmm....I think I'll have special sleeves built into my snowpants for these....only for when I'm hosting elvish company... ;^)

My dog needs this invention.

Oh, yeah.

Suuurre, it's the dog that needs it.

Always, blame it on the poor dog, they can't talk, they can't argue, just blame it on the poor beast.

Heh, heh, heh, if my poor little chihuahuas farted nearly half as much as I blame on them, they could keep this company in business, but I'm here to tell ya, when they do fart, my gosh, clear the doors, cause the room will empty fast!

Whew! Smells like rancid tuna fish with garlic sauce. I don't think anything can filter that out.

Suuurre, it's the dog that needs it.

Well that's my story and I'm sticking to it! :)

[Capriole]

Why don't these folks just use Bean-O? It works like a charm. I can eat anything.

[gitmo]

My bulldog can clear the room. He can make your eyes water and your legs run. I give him Beano by the case now.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

I love the FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERrrrrrrrrrrrrtttttttttttttt noise!

[DancesWithTrout]

Further enhancement can be had by blaming, in a loud obnoxious manner, the least likely candidate nearest you. Your fellow occupants will be in such shock that they forget the he-who-smelt-it-dealt it principle.

[UKCajun]

Over here we get "phwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaappp" sounds in counterpoint!

What? No catalytic coverter?

What? No catalytic coverter?

Palladium costs make it uneconomical! :)

When she farts her shoes fly off!
