farting

In my first year of pre school i still hadn't quite figured out that it is inpolite to rip farts in public, so the first time i walked in after i introduced myself i proceded to rip a huge fart right in front of everyone.

when i was younger... i used to cry every time i would fart... b/c my friend told me once, that if you farted too much... you would lose all the air inside of you-- and deflate lke a big balloon.

I used to believe that whenever my dad farted (which he did WAY to much) that it was a duck quacking somewhere.

When I was a child, well after being potty trained, but before ever experiencing or even imagining such thing as a "wet fart", I was nonetheless scared to death for some reason of farting when I was naked. I was afraid that somehow if I farted when naked, I was in grave danger of doing more than a fart and spraying doodoo all over the room. But when ever I had so much as just panties on, I farted fearlessly, never expecting it to soil my panties. So I can't imagine why the thought of farting naked was fraught with such apprehensions of something I'd never known to happen!

I used to believe that my immediate family were the only people in the world that farted

Sometimes I would walk through a room and let a fart, and then say "Watch out for that barking spider". One day my 8 year old son jumped up on the couch to avoid the spider. That's when I found out that he thought barking spiders were real.

when i was younger (8 or 9) and i farted my dad used to tell me not to worry, that my bum just coughed.

A friend of mine used to think that if she let a poot that she could sniff it all up in her nose so that no one else would smell it. yuck!

When I was younger, I thought that when you farted, a little brown, smelly bubble would pop out of your butt, and then it would pop loudly. When it popped, a nasty-smelling gas would be released, and if some of the gas got on your clothing, you would smell bad forever. This resulted in: a) me looking behind myself after farting (to see the bubble) and b) me jumping as soon as I farted (so no gas got on my clothes!)

when i was 8 or 9 i used to think that when i farted i couldn't breath in. that was cuz if something can smell so bad, then it MUST be poison

out of breath

I used to believe that if you stood in front of an open woodstove when it was hot, and farted, the tozic fumes of the fart would catch fire. I tried this many times, and so did my brother, but alas we could never make our farts catch fire.

I have a friend who things that if you don't let all the air out when you yawn it will turn into a burp and if you dont burp it'll turn into a fart

When I was about six or seven my Dad told me that the hospital sold corks for children who farted too much to hold it all in! I believed him for quite some time.... at least it got me to go away from him to fart I guess.

I used to believe that if you farted you could blow a hole through the chair.

i used to belive that you drive your car on the line in the street.

I used to think that when somebody farted, little black dots came out that looked like pepper specks.

when i was younger i thought that if you farted by a raidiator your bum would explode!

i used to think if you didnt fart you would float away into the sky because i was weird like that. that was 23 years ago

Because i could not see them, i thought my farts came out as green bubbles

When I was a kid in gym class, we went on the field to do some sprints. As we were lining up to race our classmates, I could feel a rumbling in my nether regions. "3....2....1....GO!!!" We all bolted, and as my belly desperately jiggled over to the other side of the field, the rumbles increased. Half way across the green, a woosh of air escaped my bum in several pieces. I guess by running it blocked and unblocked the fart flow, which sounded like a man clapping in the rain.
