farting!

[Arthur Little]

I believe I might've recounted this TRUE [honest!] tale somewhere on here before. Anyhow, I make no apologies for telling it again in the PRESENT context:

As a youngster in the pre-Qualifying Class at Elementary School [circa mid-1950s] I recollect being required to learn, and recite, certain poetic works. I cannot seem to remember now, the name of the poem - nor to whom it was attributed. I DO, however, vividly recall one particular LINE ... which read thus:-

" ... But listen, listen, listen ...
And you shall hear afar ...

Some bright spark had pencilled in the letter 't' to make the last word of the second line ... 'afar' ... appear as 'afar[t]!

Out of the mouths of babes & sucklings, right enough.

P.S. IMpurely out of curiosity ... anyone here tried adding a "new" dimension to the old custom of "blowing bubbles" by farting in the BATHTUB?

I DO realise Filipin(os)/as might well encounter certain difficulties in perfecting this particular "art" on account of their penchant for using the TABO?

Would I be correct in my assumption?

Brits are obsessed with body gases we used to have a cartoon character called "Johnny farty-pants" in a magazine called VIZ,the story always revolved around his chuffing and guffing as he called the release of his methane

I see everyone else seems to have forsaken this topic [either THAT, or they've exhausted themselves into a state of constipation by now!]. "T'is an ill wind", as they (who are THEY, I wonder?) say! So I'll just "blow-off" ... ... or fck off ... sorry, sign-off for my tea (supper if you're from the Phils):lol2:

Cheers! & Ta for sharing (or should that be "airing"?) your views.

Art' the [Old] Fart/Farty Artie

... I was wrong! ... there's still some forumers "farting about" after all. How about 'pooper cushions'? D'you think we should include THEM in Fart ... ... I mean PART 2 of our discussion? Maybe we even ought to go as far(t) as conducting another poll!
