It was embarrassing, even though I didn’t get caught.i was in a major supermarket, conducting my hunting-gathering business when I had a vent-to-atmosphere release, I knew it was gonna be bad, judging from the high temp, and by the time it reached my nostrils, there was no doubt that paint was gonna start peeling from the shelves imminently .About the time I made this horrifying discovery, I saw the nose of a shopping cart emerging around the endcap, coming up the aisle. I did a little sprint to the other end of the aisle and took up station on the far side of a display, looking down the aisle I had just contaminated. I saw two toddlers, roughly 3 and 4, a boy and a girl, the mother, and an infant in a carrier within the cart. I observed this crew as they approached the effluvium, at which point everyone froze in their tracks. Mother began an interrogation, to which plausible denials were proffered. Mother then checked baby’s diaper, and my sides started aching from stifled guffaws. I escaped blame, but I was still embarrassed.

I was in the Navy, in a foreign port, meaning everyone assembled topside in the morning. After a night of drinking beer and eating pickled eggs, I took my place in formation and released what I expected to be an innocuous little poot. It turned out to be a sulfuric public health emergency. It was so pungent that one could discern the direction from whence it wafted, and the evidence all pointed to me. This was more embarrassing than the last story.

I had no earthly idea beforehand. There would have been no doubt, had I deployed a test fart, the implications would have been obvious. Perhaps my digestive tract slept in that morning - stirring itself awake at the most inopportune moment. Too much dark beer the night before. The pickled eggs had time to leisurely release their sulfurous compounds for bacterial breakdown before the colon roused itself and said, ‘get all this gas outta heah!’ Totally silent too, which added to my confidence in cutting loose. As I walk-farted my way toward formation, I was oblivious to the trail of destruction in my wake. As I took my place in formation, the horrible realization caught up with me at the same instant sulfuric fumes reached that part of my brain that analyzes strange smells. Have you seen the trick where you sprinkle ground black pepper on top of water in a glass, then sprinkle a pinch of table salt and observe the pepper fleeing to the farthest extent possible? It was like that as a huge gaping hole opened up around me.

Some years back, I was in a large queue for Dr. Sato's Screamland, and I felt a big one coming on. I decided to let it rip and play dumb. Noise disguised the fart sound, but oh man, it was a potent one. Folks were making faces and gross out sounds and looking around. I just kept on my most innocent face. I could barely contain my laughter, but no one was the wiser.

“To the Royal Academy of Farting”

In 1781, Ben Franklin drafted a letter to the Royal Academy of Brussels, one of the most respected scientific organizations in Europe. And in it, he asked a very important question: “Why are you putting absolutely no effort into figuring out how to make my farts smell better?”

7th grade classroom, and my SBD turned not-so-silent. The girl ahead of me turned to face me, and gave me this LOOK. I sat there, mortified, saying nothing.

She leaned around me and told the boy sitting behind me, "That's disgusting!"

Baffled, for he had been reading and hadn't noticed the detonation, he asked, "What?" He protested when the girl repeated her accusation.

Just in case I did get caught for doing the deed, I decided to make a joke of it. I told the boy, "Dude, I heard it come from behind me!"

As class ended, he kept following the girl, loudly protesting, "I swear, I didn't do it!"

It was from the leftover spaghetti I had for lunch. The smell was brutal- very garlic-y and very pungent from the roasted peppers in the sauce. I knew the fart was coming and I remember shifting around in my seat trying to hold it in but it squeeked out. Everyone within 5 or 6 seats from mine could smell it and that dickhead Steve Badger blamed it on me. I denied it but the red embarrassment on my face gave me away. To this day I call such farts "spaghetti farts."

My first husband used to shop with me and rip one out and then walk away. I was left alone with the fall-out while other shoppers came by. He would peer from a safe distance and laugh. That's how he entertained himself--one of the many ways I felt abused and disrespected by him.

The teacher was the basketball coach who was a particular taciturn fellow.

Nobody laughed - nobody moved. The prayer finished and the coach took my friend out the door. As soon as that door shut a big whoop went up in the room.

Almost as if it was a scene from some high school movie.

There were about five people gathered around me on the surgery team and about six student nurses there for observation for on the job training. I was sedated but not anesthetized yet when I felt the rumbling indicative of what was about to happen. I guess the sedation made me less inhibited so I announced "I've got to fart". Literally everyone took one step back from the gurney and I let er rip. Not a word was said about it and I went under shortly after that. After I thought about it later I felt sorry for the students. They were all teenagers.

the pastor, a church elder, and me. It was a weekday afternoon and I had dropped in to bring some clothing donations.

There was zero warning. Had no idea it was coming or I would have excused myself and rushed to the ladies' room. The 3 of us were talking when suddenly a large gust of air just shot right out. No odor, but it was LOUD. I swear it echoed off the walls.

The other 2 were visibly startled and looked at each other the way you do when you hear a sudden bang and wonder, 'What was that?' You look around to see if something fell off of a shelf. While the noise was still reverberating in our ears, they both turned to look at me as it dawned on them what the sound was. Neither one spoke, but the pastor's face looked stern and annoyed, as if I was a crude barbarian who did it intentionally.

I was mortified. I know that I should have said, "Excuse me. I'm sorry." But I was so horrified that I could not speak. I just froze. Then I managed to mumble that I had some things to do and left quickly before another one escaped. Felt like a cowardly clod.

85. There was one other time when it was a close call
Tue Oct 29, 2024, 10:15 PM
Oct 29

but I managed to hold it back.

I was having outpatient surgery in the doctor's office, a gynecologist. He was removing a section of my cervix after a positive PAP and biopsy. Local anesthetic, so I was awake through it all.

So there I was on my back, feet in stirrups, nude from the waist down, and the doc was crouched down, face up close as he he gave the anesthetic shot into the cervical area. I could feel a small intestinal air bubble and thought, "Oh no. I can't fart in his face." So I tightened the muscle, not realizinlg that the simple tightening caused movement. He asked if the shot had pinched. Not willing to admit the real problem, I said, "Just a little."

He said that once he started the procedure, I would have to stay perfectly still because any movement would put his hand off course, removing more tissue than necessary or the wrong tissue. He moved away for about ten minutes to let the anesthetic take hold and I released the small, mercifully silent and odorless air bubble.

The surgery went well. I stayed still, so there was no veering off course. In fact, he told me that healthy tissue would grow back, good as new. So I said that he was a miracle worker, turning me into a virgin again after two marriages.

the biopsies (the doc did 3 biopsies from different parts of the cervix).

But I looked it up and learned that it develops slowly and is easily cured with surgery when caught early. It's fairly common. That was 30 years ago. No recurrence.

When I told friends about almost farting in the doc's face they cracked up laughing. (Never told the doc about it.)

You have asked many questions over the years, but this one is a DUzy. You're truly the Barbara Walters of the Democratic Underground.

So many hilarious anecdotes in here. My tale isn't nearly as funny as others'. It would have been in junior high, Grade 9, I believe. Standing at our lockers with a group of friends, talking. It was mid-afternoon and I'd been suffering from gas pains all day. Ready to pop like a balloon. Sure enough, another friend approached from behind and jabbed me in the side. That compressed air expelled like an afterburner!




I turned beet red. Everybody heard it. Didn't want to go back to school the next day because I was so embarrassed.

91. On a rifle range at Fort Drum, NY
Wed Oct 30, 2024, 04:16 PM
Oct 30

In the 10th Mountain Division it is required that when a unit does its annual weapons qualification it has to go to the field on Monday, return on Friday and do other field training during that week. (As opposed to Field Station Berlin, my previous unit, where you went to the range, did your weapons zero and qualification exercise in just a couple hours, or in the 101st Airborne where we set up all the ranges we'd conduct that week and just send troops to the ones they had to attend - as a Screaming Eagle issued an M203 grenade launcher I had to fire a rifle qualification and a grenade launcher qualification, and our officers did pistol qualification.)

Well anyway, when you go to the woods in 10th Mountain you eat MREs at least once a day. I have NO idea why they let me eat MREs because my MRE farts are classified as Prohibited Chemical Weapons by an international agency based in The Hague. But...they did.

So I'm out there on the range getting ready to fire in the Prone Supported position and I let loose a stink bomb that cleared the range for fifteen minutes. Army ranges are outdoors, so you can pretty much envision how bad these things are.

Army Airborne Unit in the 1960s. The unit was in formation waiting for the Commanding General of the base to arrive. Anyway, the General finally arrived and they called the formation to Attention.

The Commanding Officer of the Unit (I think it was a battalion), Senior First Sgt of the Unit, Command Sgt Major of the Base, Commanding General for the Base are walking in front of the battalion inspecting the troops. Anyway, someone in the middle of the unit releases a loud, long one that my brother said, seems to go on and on.

The General was red faced - and pissed. He stopped the inspection and looked at the Commanding officer and then just abruptly left with his entourage. The Commanding Officer of the Unit (probably a Light Colonel) turned to the Senior First Sgt and said something, and then left.

All the officers have left, and the 1st. Sgt turned to the soldiers in the battalion, still in formation at Attention, and demanded that the man that cut loose that Fart - come forward. He demanded that the soldier who did it, come forward. No one moved - although everyone wanted to laugh, but couldn’t.

Finally, the 1st Sgt tried psychology on the battalion and said - the man that cut loose that fart should be proud of himself. It was such a loud and long fart, and the 1st Sgt wanted the man to come forward because he wanted to congratulate that man in front of the whole company. No one came forward, so after another 10 minutes - he dismissed the unit and everyone started laughing.
