Do ghosts poot?

[rascalmom]

We had this happen once - wasn't a ghost.

Turned out to be the vent pipe (drain pipe?) in the closet with our hot water heater. We poured some water into the drain, I think dh said that filled the trap?, and it solved the problem.

Then again, what did your ghost have for lunch?

OH MY GAWD I JUST SPIT ON MY COMPUTER I LAUGHED SO HARD!!

I don't know which is funnier...The actual topic and responses on this thread or the fact that you used the word "POOT"!!

 

[Kies99]

Okay, now that I've wiped the tears away, here's a suggestion. Check the drain in your basement. Sometimes sewer gases get backed up into the drain. As the other poster mentioned, poor some hot water down the drain to help wash it back down.

It was the Dogs. You would not believe the smells that come out of our little toy poodle . Or you might want to check your shoes.

I don't have a septic tank. It was without a doubt a poot....I have a husband, two dogs and a 15 year old son....there's no mistaking it. I haven't smelled it since then, but if I smell it again, should I try to make contact?

Get out the Ouija board-put your fingers on the pointer and "poot" then see if you get a "poot" back as a response If you do and the pointer moves-RUN LIKE HELL

This thread has made my miserable day tolerable- thank you

Could be sewer gas coming from your vent pipes. If it continues I would have a plumber come take a look at it.

Frog worked as a plumber for quiet a while so I picked up on a few terms.

nothing sexier than a woman who knows her sewer smells You go, Sistah

Heck yeah make contact! Ask it what the heck it was eating before it kicked the bucket!!

A variety of scents have been attributed to ghosts or hauntings (cigar smoke, lilac, etc.), but that's one I've never heard before. I suppose it's possible, though.

In the case of my grandmother it's the scent of Copenhagen. Late the night of her funeral, I awoke to the smell of Copenhagen. I figured since we were sleeping in the bed where she died (creepy let me tell ya), it was coming from the bed. I smelled the bed, smelled the pillows. All I could smell was Febreeze. But as soon as I got out of bed I could smell Copenhagen. It was very, very weird indeed.

Sometimes I"ll smell it even now and I break down into tears because it makes me realize how much I miss her.

I know that feeling. My grandmother's perfume was all around outside my house last week and it was a particularly rough day I was having. I really think maybe she was there. I know, I know....

My mother also smells my grandfather's cigar smoke every now and again.

Sorry your miss your grandma - I miss mine too - I cannot even explain how much.

When I saw the title of this thread I immediately thought of the Saturday Night Live sketch from last year that did a parody on a Travel Channel show investigating haunted houses. I had to dig it up off of the SNL website and watch it again

OP, my bet is that it is sewer gas!

 

[Disney1fan2002]

Has anyone seen the Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, where a duck is walking around making fart sounds and everyone thinks it is Grim farting???

His denial on how it is impossible for him to "poot" is HYSTERICAL.

I saw that for the first time last week, and I got severe stomach cramps from laughing so hard!!!! I couldn't breath!!!

BTW, this puppy is the MOST ADORABLE creature!!!!!

 

[OK!]

I have no idea, but the title of this thread makes me snort with laughter every time I read it!

Ghost poots...

 

[OK!]

How would you even begin to try to make contact with a pooting ghost? Offer it a can of Hormel chili?

Sorry your miss your grandma - I miss mine too - I cannot even explain how much.

Thanks. I wish she'd been able to get to know what a wonderful person DS is, but because we couldn't afford to travel there she only met him through videotapes. We could just *barely* afford to fly out for the funeral but I told DH I'd hitchhike if I had to, if only so I could be there. My grandmother actually told me, multiple times, over the phone that I was not under any circumstances to go to her funeral. She knew how tight finances are for us and she would've been really steamed to know we flew out. But there was no question of me NOT going..because I loved her and I wanted to show my respect by attending.
It was an especially hard funeral, not only because Grandma had died, but because her service was held in the SAME chapel my uncle's service had been held in six years prior. She was buried a few feet away from him, also, in between her husband (who I never knew because he died when I was an infant) and the baby she'd lost in infancy that she thought up until Alzheimer's took her memory that she'd killed accidentally (it turned out to be SIDS).
Going to that funeral is something that will always stick in my mind, especially right before we took her to the gravesite. My mother, my aunt and I were all standing together, leaning on each other and just crying our eyes out.

Sorry...rambling. Scuse me...

No, Beano.

 

[LadyJeanPirateQueen]

How about just asking, "Hey ghost, was that you that pooted? If so, gimme a sign like..waving the curtains around or something."
