Whether you try to hide it or not, you fart. Everybody does.
But even though it's such a routine activity the average person farts between 10 and 20 times per day there's a lot about farting that you might not know.
As part of research into the microbiome the rich community of bacteria that live throughout your body scientists have learned all sorts of interesting things about the bacteria that produce gas inside your intestines. Here are 9 crucial things to know about flatulence.

10. Is it possible to ‘kick-start’ a fart by pulling someone’s finger?
Thread going to Chat 5, 4, 3, 2 .......
Are those young women discussing flatulence?
Did-a-chick? Dad-a-chack? Dum-a-chum?
99% of gas doesn’t smell? Where did they get this data, a fishing village in China?
I don’t actually know what that picture is about, but when I searched for a photo of lighting gas, they were all so less appealing in reality than in theory, that I settled on the pizza eating girls.
My wife burps but rarely toots and if she does you only hear it if she’s asleep
My old girl American Bulldog could burn your eyes farting...my Rott not as bad
My boys seem to enjoy competing
I rarely rip except when I wake up
All women I’ve known toot quietly but some have been known to toot at the most embarassing intimate moments
Spinners and yoga chicks worst offenders
I'm sure there are lots of people that would disagree with that one.
DANG!
And Herring in Sour Cream and Onions -
What are the odds?
(Feast fit for one of the "Old Ones.")
I may be viewing it on a very small screen but they appear to have nice cans, especially the one on the right..
Whether or not they are “making noise” I believe you should be commended for this photo of a controversial topic: “fox flatulence”.
One more thing. Women rarely seem bust noisy dorsal explosions like us guys—you know, a real detonation that makes the dog start.
My mother, once, many years ago as I was hiding under a table—what sounded like a kernel of corn popping, and the same with the wife, just a little ‘whoof’ that smelled like lilacs.
Viva le differance, eh?
You know though...my ol Aunt Jane entered an international fart contest....she let such a blast with such a distinct picante order(which is still lingering over Lake Erie) that even the Russian judge had to score her a 10.(which he then had her kidnapped by the Russian secret police for use as a sonic cannon against Chechnyan rebels...better than a neutron weapon with no radio active fallout that could be detected by any international monitoring groups. The UN radiation monitoring groups are just a pain in the royal Russian borscht, if you get my drift. Just dont get into my Aunt Janes drift...if you get my meaning! Anyway they pay her well and when not on duty she lives in a nice dascha.... very far away from anyone else.)
PS:Of course it wasnt called a fart contest...it was called the International Invitational Voluntary Flatulent Release Competition; judged by 4 categories....decibel amplitude, volumetric measurements and/or length of time of release, wetness vs dryness(dryer is better), and finally lethality. Under the lethality judging, special rules mitigate for lack of decibel noise range if lethality was rated quite high. This of course became known as the stealth or SBD(silent but deadly) clause and because of the SBD clause; a few previous winners were able to win, despite lack of decibel amplitude and volume
Exactly the kind of hard-hitting journalism we’ve come to expect from Vox.
Your American bulldog farted rank farts? I have a 5 year old Scott variety American bulldog. He’s a great boy, but for one thing ...
I have been around many hounds in my life, but this dog farts like a fat man after several bowls of ham and pinto beans. Not just audible, but the stink could singe nose hairs. It’s like sulfur, rotten eggs and something that died and seems to get worse as he grows older.I keep a bottle of air freshener next to my lounger. His breath isn’t that great either.
Maybe he’s eating woodchuck turds out back? I’m thinking he needs more kibbles and less canned Alpo pony.
Better than their usual Obama-servicing, at least.
hmmm, crop dusting and depth charging ... I miss the fun we had at work.
