OMG that is vile!  What a pig!  Mind you, I was in work last night and one of my female colleagues stood up from her chair, and farted Now I'm sure many of us have let one go without realising it as coming but I personally would have said "omg! I'm so embarrassed! Do excuse me!" Or words to that effect, but she just completely acted as if nothing had happened! One thing that makes me heave, is when people spit in the middle of the street! Vile people! |

I have a partner with a stoma fitted. It is attached to his bowel and diverts waste and gas to a bag which he attaches to his stomach. It does make noises and he has no control over it. And is very, very embarrased by this.
I do hope that you never find yourself fitted with one of these and that if you do ever break wind in public that no one starts a thread about it. Whilst bodily noises and gasses can be highly hilarious to 7 year old boys I would have thought grown ups could be more mature.

Well as I said earlier, if I let one go by accident I would say something and excuse myself, the man in the charity shop sounds as if he was just being rude and didn't give a hoot (sorry no pun intended!)And the woman I work with has done this before on numerous occasions, I would hazard a guess that she does it when attending to residents who are ill in bed and don't want to hear that! Your OH has my sympathy! Have worked with many people of all ages with stoma's and they can be problematic at times But if you were in public and had gas from either end, would you not either excuse yourself or find a quiet spot to let it go? |

I have bowel problems and often "release" when I don't mean to, but if someone was in the vicinity I would apologise. I can't help it either and it can be embarrassing, but thats life.

The problems with a stoma as I am sure you are aware Redsky is that you can't just let it go quietly and you have no control over the loudness or violence of such erruptions.
He could apologise I know. However he has found it difficult enough to deal with his belly button farting without drawing attention to himself by apologising or explaining to complete strangers about his medical condition.
Fact of life. We all fart and burp. Most of us pick our noses at some time. I'm a bugger for having a ferret around in my ears. Usually we can control our bodily functions and either do them in private or silence or save them for our nearest and dearests entertainment. However sometimes we all slip up and fart when we don't mean too, sneeze and snot at the same time, get one of those horrible sick burps or cough and wee our pants a little bit.
I would hope that if I do any or all of those in public whether I have a medical condition or not that whoever hears/sees me embarrasing myself with my bodily functions that they are human enough to understand and sympathise just a little bit. Not stand in judgement.
And as for oafs who do it to shock or just because they dont give a feck who hears them, I find a comment along the lines of 'Good ass' and an admiring glance usually does it. Or even a 'pardon you ma'am' can be equally as effective!

I totally agree amwap, we are all human and bodily functions can be embarrassing at times but as you say there are oafs that just don't give a d**n and will force one out whenever or wherever they are, I am not quick enough to think of a witty retort  And yes, I've come across many a stoma with a mind of its own  they may be necessary and in many cases life saving but by God they are not always cooperative! |

We all break wind 14 times a day on average so I am sure there have been a lot of silent but deadly ones dropped by accident. I do know people who cant help it and make a joke of it which draw attention to it but that is their way of coping. I will admit to feeling uncomfortable with that response

Lol, reminds me of a friend I had, only through my husbands work, she moved close to us for work and didn't know anyone so sort of befriended her, she was certainly entertaining. Her best had to be attending my sons 18th birthday party at our house where by four o'clock in the afternoon she was on her back with her legs apart demonstrating to the youngsters the art of "fanny farting"! It didn't go down well!
