The other day, my husband farted.I was about to say...something...but then I couldn't think of quite the right words... Does one say, "Bless you?" to a poot?
Somehow that doesn't seem right. There's always, "Excuse you,"
but that rather sounds like you're saying, "Exxcuuusse YOU, you disgusting human being!" Gesundheit may do, but the thing being blessed is coming out the other end than is normal for that, so would it be then, "Tiehdnuseg?"

Hmmm.. well it depends. Usually, I think I say something like.. "Ooooouup" in a light hearted way to relieve their potential embarresment! Usually followed by a snigger.If it's somewhere where there's loadsa people around, it's probably an amused look at them then a light snigger. Yeeesss.. there isn't really a word - more like a recognition noise back! ------------------

This is not something I've actually given a great deal of thought to. It's interesting though the things other knowflakes bring to your attention. Let me have a thinky - which rhymes with stinky, and I'll be back!On a grave stone in Staffordshire { England}

I usually say..."Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww....Ewwwwwwwwwww and yuck!" Because Mr. T's are so bad they could peel paint, knock the cats out cold and cause onions to cry. LOL Why do men feel the need to share their gas with us? I heard a comedian say "When a man loves you and loves you with all his heart, he wants to share his gas with you. Because he cannot do that with ANYONE else...LOL" Mr. Taurus whole heartedly agreed with that one... Still I say...ewwwwwwwwwww IP: Logged |

Well usually they are supposed to say "Excuse me!" and then you respond "You're excused!" or something like that. If the pooter doesn't say anything I imagine they are trying to hide it so I probably wouldn't say anything.Unless it were my husband. Then I would point and laugh.

Yeah. That's a little too much sharing for me. Some things are meant for private time.Though Pid, I did get a laugh at what the comedian said. IP: Logged |

This is a funny thread. My ex Mr. Virgo absolutely NEVER farted. I swear, that man just didn't fart. I knew we weren't going to make it because we never had an open-fart relationship. That's very important, you know.Well, I made the mistake of sharing this grievence with the new Mr. Virgo, and lo-and-behold, he can practically fart Beethoven's 5th symphony! I usually just say "What...?", like as though I thought he said something. He usually claims that he stepped on a duck. He'll go "Hey. Who let all these ducks in?" My only request was that he doesn't do that in bed. He has honored that request thus far (thank God).  farts are still funny, even if your not an 8 year old.

Lioneye...My ex Virgo was like that too AND he would say...where's that darn frog. Now my ex Mr. Leo was very shy about pooting...I am also very private..LOL...Must be my Virgo rising.
My brother and my dad have made Pooting a time honored past time and they are trying to get Lance into the picture. Still, Mr. T is just as bad....boy...so bad...LOL..
Like you though I have rules...No pooting while I am cooking, in the kitchen or while we are eating..that is just wrong and makes me ILL. Also, not in bed...because I have a super smeller and it WILL annoy me all night long..sitting in the dark with a Sticky Poot is the worst. LOL. Juni..yeah...that comedian was a crack up. Mr Taurus has that XL radio and gets 2-3 comedy channels. On long drives we listen to it and crack up like two little kids. LOL... IP: Logged |

What a funny thread to come home to...
Love the fart or "poot" stories!
Love the word "poot"
he he he he he he he he he.I have nothing to share though. I still don't, after six years together.. call it saturn on my ascendant, I just can't present myself as his sexy wife on one hand, and then go making stinkies down below. Though I wholly respect the couples that can share that, and don't care on way or another if my significant other chooses to 'share one' with me. IP: Logged |

I've been married over 20 years. I'm worried that my hubbie and I just don't poot, not unless we are in a restroom in private. Are we unconsciously suppressed or what?I'm going to ask him when he gets home. I hope it won't make him  Gia IP: Logged |

It took me a while to teach my Pisces man that I don't want to 'experience' gas release on his behalf. I manage to hold it in or do it in private, so does he now  IP: Logged |

Aw, Deep, lighten up!
The majority of this stuff is said tongue-in-cheek.Most of the time when my husband farts, I promptly burp in his ear.
(He says that it's not lady-like; I respond with, "And you married ME???"
Or, alternately, "Awww, Honey!"
"What?"
"I...I love you."
"Hmmm...what?"
"That's not lady-like!"
"How's that not lady-like?"
"Well, it's not cute..."
"Well, I'm not a lady, I'm a Corri ")
I was just wondering if there was an accepted verbal response anywhere in the world. It seems like there should be, ya know? re: Bed pooting: I stand firmly against it, especially if it leads to a Dutch Oven.

Can't a Dutch Oven be considered cruel and unusual punishment?... Really! That's the worst!!!I burp at my hubby too. He gets all upset and says, "You're supposed to be a lady", to which I respond, "Lady? I don't see any lady!" IP: Logged |

Yeah...this is probably waaay too much information, but Jase and I have been known to have Dutch Oven battles.
(He "accidentally" gives me a whiff of his; I then let one, pretend to go in for a kiss, and then pull the covers over his head. It spirals.)Weeellll, we have fun, anyway. IP: Logged |

I have to agree with Pixie on the whole "being sexy" thing. LOL..I just can't seem to let go on that count- in private is one thing, but I am just not open to "letting loose".
I am a sexist I guess..hee hee..now my mom and dad - when they were together, they had total poot contests like Proxie and Jase. LOL..
I will burp though and thing giggle my head off. I haven't blessed Mr. Taurus with my abilities, but soon...hee hee.... IP: Logged |

randall - that's kinda sick and demented! but i think this string wins the award for the most reponses in the quickest amount of time. never fails... tink and i were talking in H&H about fasting poots - the kind that you think will be air but... aren't. they should have their own name. when my guy toots i say "hey, that's my air you're fouling, buddy!" because it is, and he is, and why do men stink more than women? not that i haven't made myself gag, or had to leave the room when a girlfriend let one rip, but in the decades of my life the men in my movie just give gas a bad name. the worst is the elevator SBD. ewwwww.

Just my kind of subject!
I had tears in my eyes reading some of your comments.
My hubby and I have contests!
loudest
longest
smellyist
Weirdest sound
how it actually occurred, bending or standing.
During sex?
Of course the big one is NASTIEST in public.
I will laugh at anyone farting, I don't care who or where I am. I used to be really "anal" about farting, but now I need to leave the room and laugh my butt off. I wish someone would laugh at me if I farted in public! It breaks the ice. If there are more than 2 people in the room, I like to play Sherlock Holmes and figure out who did it. Does the smell resinate around one particular person? There are sooo many laughs in the great game of farting!
