Are farts funny?

[GAN]

I had to set up a ‘NFZ’…No Farting Zone. Between my dad, 4 brothers and husband - it was a necessity.

Lord …I hope it was in the kitchen!

George Carlin had a very funny bit about farts. I don’t think I can post a link…we’ll it is Carlin…foul language and all that… but he was hilarious

PLEASE use the appropriate terminology... they are "Botty Burps"

As long as you don't trust them they are.

And we all get to the point when we can no longer trust them.

I have a funny story about my dad and a fart machine. We went to a photo studio with my entire family to do a big family portrait there were 20 of us. My dad wanted to make the kids laugh so he brought his remote control fart machine. Well the fart machine and the big lights for the flash set up around the studio were on the same signal so every time he would hit the button the lights would flash. The photographer couldn’t figure out what was happening, we had a big laugh once we realized what was setting them off.

Seems like it should be "booty burps".

Fart is easier and much more to the point. Last funeral I went to fart was mentioned in regards to the deceased by 5 of of the 6 people who offered eulogies.

When my nephews were younger - one of them was telling my husband that another of them had done something disgusting, gross and smelly and started with an ‘F’-my husband asked if he farted-nope said my nephew…he ‘frowd’ up

I never could do that in public or especially in the presence of women. Just brought up that way. Even after I got married, I was a little more relaxed because it is pretty hard to avoid it happening occasionally, still bothered me though. I suppose it's a guy thing, but some things you learn early on don't go away.

My dear godmother had the family over for Christmas Eve dinner. She made the questionable decision to make chili. Well.... we went to midnight mass. My dad and "uncle" were tooting up a storm. So much so that people sitting near them got up and moved! To this day the advice we give to any new bride in the family is "never serve chili before church".

My mom was a Surgical Nurse and I remember her coming home one day and saying they were doing a procedure near the intestine and the Surgeon wanted to inspect the intestine because he smelled something and was afraid he nicked the intestine. The other Doctor assisting admitted he had just farted. So it isn't always a crude term used by kids.

I don't consider it a crude term at all. It is just a crude thing to do intentionally, funny as a child, but not as an adult. I don't say anything, but unless it came out in solid form I don't find it all that funny. Then I find it hilarious, unless I am the originator.

I also have another nephew (I’ve got 8) who as a baby farted thru his whole baptism…priest made a comment about ‘getting the devil’ out of him - everyone was laughing…

I bet the NFZ didn't work....be honest

In my opinion, any male, of any age will think that farts are funny as long as it originates with them.

If it is another male, we will think its gross and make all kind of comments but deep down we will wish that we delivered that massive stink bomb

Actually - mostly it did - except with dad - he out ranked my NFZ (pun intended)

Thanks - I appreciate mannerliness. My men all conduct themselves that way too.
