Now, about the Arabs on the plane who eat garlic morning, noon and night... Years ago, I worked with an Iranian lady who, although I am sure she bathed and washed regularly, continuously REEKED of garlic. Being in an enclosed meeting room with her was an “experience”, regardless of how far away I sat from her.

Combine a plate of Foul Medammes with Hummus and Moutabel and you could just about power one of the aircraft's engines.

The best thing in life is to lay a stinky fart and get away with it. To drive them before you and to hear the lamentations of their women.

My ‘favorite’ is to cut a few, always look around at another and finally say...
HOLD ON!! Trust me, If I were doing that, I would be proud and own up to it. BUT it is NOT me.... (snicker, snicker)
It does help to have zero compassion and absolutely no use for strangers in an elevator or diving bell.

I never deny. Just this week I let one go in a bar and a woman who was walking by said “Did you shit yourself?” I said “No, maamm. I always smell like this at 11:00 in the morning”.

My stepmom used to make this bean soup my dad really liked. Only problem was you dared not even go to the part of the house where their master bedroom was afterward! We joked he had to nail his sheets down at night.
