Whatever size, form or shape, toilet humor has always brought a smile to people’s faces. So, even if someone does not like the idea of a whole post on Farting Etiquette, what the fart? I’ll still write it.

Mankind I have always harbored an admiration for the powerful forces of nature. Wind energy is the next best thing to fossil fuels, and as long as there’s food on the planet, there will be farts.

Breaking wind is an essential fart of human nature. The fart of the matter is, no one can hold it any longer than 2 hours. This is scientifically proven at the MirrorCracked labs. There are certain etiquettes when it comes to unleashing our wind upon the unsuspecting public, and not many people adhere to it.

There’s a 4-line poem in Sanskrit, which describes the different intensities of smell that are associated with different levels of farting:

Darrr-am Burrrr-am Bhayam Naasthi
(Loud, sonic-boom farts do not stink)

Koiyyam Kotakasya Madhyaman
(There’s a reasonable amount of stink when the fart is squeaky and forced)

Thissssss-adhghoram Mahadhghoram
(Unbearable attack of stink forces when the fart hisses)

Nishabdham Praana Sankatam
(The unheard fart is a killer)

With this knowledge of the ages in mind, we can keep ourselves aware of what we need to do when we can’t hold it any longer. Here are a few tips on how to behave when we fart:

  1. If you’re alone, then let it out loudly, smile and say, “Wow, what a fart!”
  2. If in a meeting with 4 or more people and you very quietly let loose, then slowly start pushing your chair away from the person sitting next to you and give him/her a dirty look. Others will follow suit. This technique is called Farting The Blame.
  3. If you’re standing in a crowded bus, then make sure that you start pushing your way through the crowd slowly but steadily, moving towards the door, while farting quietly, so that the stink is distributed evenly throughout the length of the bus. (Not applicable outside India)
  4. If you’re with a girlfriend/boyfriend and you realize that you have to break wind, then play some music and tell your partner that you’ll dance for her/him. Unleash the wind energy quietly while dancing. He/she will never know. It’s easier for smokers – they can just light up to kill the stink.
  5. If you’re with someone who’s irritating you and you just want them to go away, then do the sonic-boom.

I sincerely hope this small but comprehensive guide helps people in distress. As usual, contact me for a free demo. :D

5. Harsha - September 26, 2008

The second tip “Farting The Blame” has become so common nowadays in the IT offices. It has become a common practice for someone to just fart and make faces towards his neighbor :-) ..Especially after a heavy afternoon lunch..
And the manager leads the list here in introducing innovative methods.. The more one grows in the Org chart, the more subtle their farting methods :P CEOs & Managers r not supposed to fart, you see!

6. maureenj - September 26, 2008

This post is Fartastic. Laughed out loud. Why don’t you post a part of it in LOL? Another technique is if you leave a slightly noisy one, you adjust the chair pretending that the chair was noisey.

16. Dinesh Babu - September 26, 2008

@Sakhi – Farting is a natural thing. There is nothing Yuky about it :)

32. mysoundingboard123 - September 26, 2008

34. Kris Bass - September 27, 2008

Some people, aaaah… can’t work up a sense of humor. And the others, like me, are called intelligent!

ROTFFMAO (Roll On The Floor FARTING My Ass Off)

(Solitaire’s Shrek story also has a lot of Fartikipedia entries)

35. The Illuminator - September 27, 2008

Woah…If you created that Sanskrit poem, then kudos to you!! Very innovative. Btw, how does dancing with your girlfriend make her not notice the smell? What about people with two left feet?

36. Avionic Spanker - September 27, 2008

Dearth of topics? Or is this the magic art of seeing the silver lining in a related fiasco? If its the latter, can we have details of the fiasco please? :)

@Illuminator – If you have two left feet, use one of them to step on the left foot of your girlfriend.

37. Xylene - September 27, 2008

Dude I never want to be in the same bus or the meeting room with you !!!!
Or lets say anywhere near you. :D

hilarious man !
Good observations.

38. Xylene - September 27, 2008

And I guess your research will be widely appreciated by the farting community.

39. Piyu - September 27, 2008

which fart is more dangerous the silent one (generally the smelly fart) or the noisy one ?

48. Riti - September 28, 2008

52. soham - September 29, 2008

53. soham - September 29, 2008

Dhadak Padam Kadi Na Gandham
Phus-Phus Padam Bahut Gandham !!

54. Anshul - September 29, 2008

There is a saying, One who smiles while farting has got someone else to blame.
