body functions: farting

When I was younger, my grandpa used to tell me that no one could smell your farts if you did them around no one else. I didn't want anyone to smell my farts so I would run behind the couch every time I had to fart..even during family dinners.

i used to think that, because i knew hot air rises, that if a girl with long hair farted, you would see a bubble shape rising up under her hair until it poped out at the top of her head!

When i was smaller, i thought that when you farted, it produced a bubble on the outside of your buttcrack, and then it popped.
Really random thought, I know, I know.

For the longest time, I never thought farting was rude or anything. It's just as natural as breathing; how was I supposed to know doing it in public was socially frowned upon?

At home, my sister and I would fart freely, whenever we felt the need, and my parents (though somewhat more inhibited) weren't especially shy, either. I only learned otherwise after one particularly embarassing incident in grade school. ]_]

I used to think that a "Wet Fart" or "Shart" (fart with a little more to it) was called a "Wet Birdie".
It wasn't until late in highschool I found out that it was just my family who called it that because I made it up when I was very little.

When I was in boot camp and a recruit farted, the drill instructor would yell "turn on the air conditioners" and that meant everyone had to start breathing very deeply through their nose and blowing out their mouths. I believed that was funny till after the first time.

I used to believe that farts were bubbly-like,so whenever I was about to fart, I tried to pop it by poking at my butt to try to pop it.

I believed that a giant cartoon-like skunk tail, black with stripe, would pop out your butt when you farted, and go back in before you could see it, which explained the "pop" feeling that comes with a fart.

When I was little, I used to think that people don't smell my farts whenever I hold my breath in.

I thought that farts were invented one day by my parents when I was about three for the sake of my own amusement. I really thought that before this moment there had been no such thing.

I believed that if I held in my fart, it would travel up thru my intestines back thru my stomach and come out as a burp.

I used to believe that whenever u let one out there would be a line of green smoke behind u wherever u went, So I would always turn around and kinda woosh it away lol...

I used to believe that if you farted too hard and the heat was on,thehouse would blow up because of the noxious gas and the mix of heat together.So one day in the winter,I made my brother try it.I held him up to the radiator,he farted REALLY BAD,and i ran down the front stairs and outside in the freezing cold holding my brother close to me.The neighbors shoveling their yards stared at us and laughed.I was so embarrassed and my brother started to cry.we went back inside and i NEVER tried that again.too bad it didn't blow up after all of that embarrassment!

my friend told me that if you burp and fart at the same time you will explode, i didnt believe her so i tried and tried but i have never been able to do it.

My neice thought that when you burped it was a fart coming out of your mouth.

She looked at us and would say

"Whoops I just farted in my mouth"

When I was younger my dad told me that he had what was called a 'poot jar.' He said that everyone had one and if I misbehaved he would take it out and open it and make me smell it.
