Farts

[Cheezy the Wiz]

Farts are fun.

It's almost a shame that they are 'inappropriate'. Everyone loves farts.

True story. I'm particularly prone to gas, so I fart a lot, but its always satisfying.

I was somewhat lactose intolerance (hives). Not major or anything. No ice cream, cheese, milk, just formula. Kinda weird.

I was very, very lactose intolerant. No dairy products at all. I had to have soy formula until I was put on solid foods. Now I love dairy.

If you can't find farts funny, there's something wrong with you. And for you religious folks, think about it: God could have had us expel our gas out of our ears, or our bellybutton, or anywhere else, completely silently, but no. He had us expel it through the two biggest flabs of flesh on our bodies so that it makes a big funny sound. If you don't laugh at that, you are disrespecting the Lord.

If you'd read the link from the OP, you'd know that those flabs of flesh are irrelevant.

The real question is why do some smell like rotten eggs, and why do people always let them out on stairwells and other heavily populated areas? Ok, the second part I know...

Dude, that was the first thing in the OP.

What makes farts stink?
The odor of farts comes from small amounts of hydrogen sulfide gas and mercaptans in the mixture. These compounds contain sulfur. Nitrogen-rich compounds such as skatole and indole also add to the stench of farts. The more sulfur-rich your diet, the more sulfides and mercaptans will be produced by the bacteria in your guts, and the more your farts will stink. Foods such as cauliflower, eggs and meat are notorious for producing smelly farts, whereas beans produce large amounts of not particularly stinky farts.

Whenever we farted in our house, my dog darted towards the smell to investigate.

Many of my friends found the poking nose quite hilarious. I didn't.
