Flatulance

Now I would expect that most Venus types will not want to read any further about this particular subject, so they may be gently excused if they so prefer. However, most Mars types think that farts are funny. Now this activity is something that everyone does, including some dogs. We had a doberman that could emit green clouds that would have been selected as a poison gas in World War I or could melt walls, whichever was more useful.

One of our teacher friends, Munera, taught math. She never had any kind of response from Steve, one of her students. One day, he unintentionally and loudly had much gas. Munera said to Steve,"Steve, that is the most you have ever contributed to this class."

My mother liked to make a dried butter bean casserole with sausages. It was delicious but deadly to all who ate. One time we had friends in for dinner, and Mom served her casserole. At the end of the evening, Maurice and I went out of the house and sat facing each other on the bumpers of the cars in the driveway. At that point it started, and the farts came out like a continuous set of bullets from a machine gun. We both thought this was very funny and could neither stop laughing or farting. The company came out of the house and wanted to know what was so funny, but we were laughing so hard we could not speak. After all, how do you answer, "Farting!"

At a party a friend had a gas problem and decided to go into the next room to relieve the pressure, thinking that slamming the door would cover any noises. Little did he realize that he went through a swinging door, until he returned to a room doubled up in laughter. I am sure that each my readers can relate an embarrassing moment, but to me, they merely underline the fact that, "Farts are funny."
