What I Taught Myself....October 21, 2010

So I'm probably one of the most open people.  I tell every one everything about me.  No secrets from this guy.  You wanna know something, you'll find out.  From sleeping habits to hygiene, I'll let you know.  But to me, its surprising how people must keep some things hidden.

Like farting.

Every one farts!  Its a fact of life.  You either burp or you fart.  Me?  Well, I sure as hell don't burp.  I haven't belched since I was 6 years old.

But in other countries, its a compliment if one farts at the table during a meal.  Its customary to fart on the streets, in a cab, or even on elevators.  You could get thrown in prison or beheaded if you don't fart in front of royalty (don't take my word for it).

So why is farting such a insult in America?  Is it because of the stench?  Is our society so obsessed with dousing ourselves with colognes, perfumes, and deodorants that we've decided that anything that comes close to smelling bad an insult?  Especially when the average smell of a fart lasts for less than a minute.

But like I was saying before, people have to hide their farts.  Squeezing their cheeks together to make it more silent.  Crop dusting across a room so no one knows whom to blame for the foul smell.

I believe its time for Americans to open up about their flatulence and just let it go.  Its only going to be embarrassing for a little while.  Fart away my friends!

Thats it for me!
