Back With A Bang

On Flatulence, Flatus, Flatulent, Farting. is a natural bodily function performed by all living things in one form or another.

Humans are the only species so far, that have raised this bodily function to an art-form.

Farting in humans comes in two sonic types.

Silent or alternatively producing a loud report of varying degrees of decibels.

Loud but unlikely to cause ear damage.

OK let's get all the funnies out of the way first.

Slang Names for flatulence.

Back With A Bang Burp

Back End Burp

Backwards Burp

Bottom Burp

Back Bang

NB 'Back With A Bang' (is apparently trending on twitter?)

Back Door Bank

Big Bang Is Back

Air Biscuit, the floating thereof

Squeeze cheese

Cut the mustard

Crack one off

Gas

Let rip

Break wind

Who guffed? variants include; chuffed, huffed, puffed and of course the world famous fluffed.

Parft to denote the sound of the report

Let it rattle. As in the rhyme.

'Wherever you be let your wind blow free, In church or chapel let rattle'

Blow off

Bit windy

Sometimes animals are blamed or used as a deflector with a qualifying question.

Where's them ducks ?

Where's that frog ?

Phew! Is that the dog ?

The dogs are barking ?

Bodily Function Fuel Source?

Farting performs an important function in the body, as it allows the release of trapped gases, that are created by the decomposition of food and drink in the stomach.

If it were not for this bodily function; we would be full of gas. Not a pleasant thought.

Smelly farts can come about based on what we eat.

The more decomposition the more gas. Onions for example.

The only other way out would be via the mouth.

Now you can have bad breath but, would you want the gas that escapes from your butt coming out of your mouth?

A forward burp of this nature, may not only be socially quite embarrassing, but potentially flammable.

Paula lets rip on X Factor.

The smell occurs, due to a mixture of gases, including.

Methane,(flammable) Hydrogen, Hydrogen Sulphide (rotten egg fart smell) Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen and Oxygen.

The methane can be ignited, (pyroflatulence) producing a blue flame.

This should not be attempted by an untrained person.

Gas Finance

Getting Methane out of the ground is an expensive business.

We produce about 2 liters of gas per 24 hours, usual at night when we are relaxed, and in beds asleep.

If the average family had a method of capturing this wasted fuel source. Think of the possibilities?

We could probably be self sufficient in gas, for cooking and heating. If you have a large family you could even run the family car!

The oil rich countries that we rely on, would be shaking in their boots.

Alternative Urban Mining

There are easier Methane deposits that we do use, it is trapped in the old landfill sites, all over the country.

There is a large landfill site to the east of London, at Beckton. It is just down the road from the new Business & Finance district of Canary Wharf, and next door to the City Airport.

You know when you are 'passing' through because of the 'Beckton Pong'! It really stinks!

This 'free' methane resource is tapped, and sold to the local power station and recycling plants.

Having trapped wind can be extremely painful.

It is not uncommon for people to arrive at the emergency room; complaining of extreme stomach pain, only for the doctor or nurse; to insert a finger and release the pent up gas.

To the relief and embarrassment of the sufferer.

Social Class And Farting

Social Class. The Etiquette

Farting in public, even in front of the Queen has always been acceptable, as long as 'you' do not draw attention to the release.

In polite society the form, is to ignore the noxious whiff and just hope that is passes away quickly.

Some people will leave the room to fart.

Or even raise their arse from their bath water.

Even Celebrities are taking public farting seriously, as a way to connect to the masses

The Social Divide

Amongst certain groups of people. We no longer call them; the lower classes as this is not politically correct.

Farting etiquette is totally different and a great source of amusement with offenders bragging; with comments like 'better out, than in' and 'Whoa! There was something behind that one'.

Great pride is taken in producing as loud a report as possible.

In fact as recent as 1945 during the golden age of variety theater, one could go and watch internationally famous performers showing their farting prowess.

Joseph Pujol 1857 – 1945 stage name Le Pétomane

The world famous French flatulist (professional farter) performer and entertainer made a whole career from his business end.

He could fart at will, and produce a wide variety of popular tunes. This was due to a remarkable control of his stomach muscles.

I hope this has been useful and amusing for you. This usually misunderstood and much maligned bodily function, farting is perfectly normal and should be celebrated.

If you enjoyed Farting Is Back With A Bang. Share it with your friends. I'm sure they will like it too Thanks.

Words fail to express how absolutely happy I am to be the very reader on the entire world wide web, to make it to this Hub, and the comments section. (Grin!)

I'm equally at a loss on what exactly to say about it.

I have a feeling, if the Royals ever see this, you'll no longer be allowed to play on the palace grounds.

I uhmm .... wow .... I'm still reeling how you took such a subject as this, and put it together with such flair and ... and ... artful expertise?

Pardon me, I must run for tissue. I've been choking back the laughter to the point that my eyes are streaming with tears, which are now dripping from my chin and will surely short out my laptop if I don't dry up the mess.

I didn't think a hub on stinky wind could be so informative.

I have been around loud ones and soft, barely audible, ones. It's those quiet ones that I'm afraid to be around because of the smell that follows and lingers on for a long time refusing to leave the area.

What really amazes me is when people leave the area immediately after they let one out, as if "it" would follow them out and no one would know who done it. Duh?

You, my friend, are a stitch! If you had asked me a couple of days ago if the first hub I would read of yours would be of the flatuetic (please include my new word for stinky prose eloquently stated) I would have said you are nuts.

But you know what? This was very creative, very well done and oh so interesting, not to mention quite gutsy!

When someone says they are considering sharing it with their fourth grade class, I think you have something there!

You've just made history and will go down on my classic top 10 List!

If you find an old copy of the Merrick Medical Dictionary and look up the word "Flatulence", you will find that the dictionary actually discusses the different types of farts--for example, the "slider". I'm serious. It's hilarious!

WD Curry 111 profile image

WD Curry 111 Level 8 Commenter 3 months ago

I see this is a popular subject around here. Personally, I think the subject stinks.

I went to military school for my secondary education. We trained the "Barking Spider". It was truly an art form and often punctuated rambling speeches by administrators. We perfected the skills required to flame up without the repercussions of a "suck back". It is no game for the uninitiated to play.

Chief Joseph (Nez Pierce) had a brother, Olikut (great war chief), who cranked off a beauty during their surrender ceremonies to the US Army. Actually, he cranked off several good ones at appropriate times during the speech of the victorious general. He saved the coup de grass for the summation. It was such a beauty, that it is still heard today in the annuls of history.

My eldest son had elaborate farting performances down to a tee (?) and we could never persuade him that they wouldn't get him anywhere in life!

Yet his grand enthusiasms for things like that propelled him into great success. ("Social skills are one of the 7 recognized skills" his headmaster assured us.)

His girlfriend has somehow put a stop to them, well to the fun performances of them. You can understand why.

Great Hub. There's nothing like a farting story to get you rolling.

molometer this was to funny. I have a grandson that is able to fart at will. He makes fun of grandma when she has the "walking farts". It is embarrassing though when you are in a study group, get up to walk to the blackboard and one of those silent and long ones slip out. I was glad there was a dog in the room and its owner really thought he was the guilty culprit. I didn't have to own up to that one.

It is a great way to find like minded people.

I had been following some and intend to follow some more.

My views have increased by at least 20% and I haven't really been that active. Maybe sharing 5 to 10 peoples hubs a day, that's all. Have you a figure in mind?

I still only share hubs I like, just more often. makes perfect sense to me.

We never know when people are online. It could be argued that we should be sharing continuously. Who knows how many sets of eyeballs we miss daily?

Hi seeker7,

every time I read a new comment on this farting hub about some new insight into farts around the world I fall about laughing. It's back with a bang alright and the dog looking to see where it came from had me in stitches.

The vision of you holding it in at the bus stop is priceless PMSL.

Fart you know it makes sense lol

Seeker7 profile image

Seeker7 Level 8 Commenter 5 months ago

LMAO!!!!! This was brilliant!! There is nothing worse than standing in line waiting for a bus and you just know a 'ripper' is on the way out! I hold my arse so tight and pray 'stay in, stay in, at least until the bus reves up or something!' I've held my arse in so tight that I had muscle stiffness the next morning in both cheeks!

I was also reading a hub about the benefits of having pets with another hubber and having a laugh about the things they do. Dogs are not too sure about what a 'fart' is. When it rips out of them, they always look at their bottom so see what it was. One of mine, when he was a pup, use to chase his bum in circles trying to find out where the noise came from!! We love our dogs to bits, but I'm afraid if anyone does let rip, then we tend to blame them!!LOL!!

Hello everyone,

I am overwhelmed by your flatulent outbursts and feel humbled by your honesty.

I feel like Oprah on Hiatus or is that flatus lol

Glad you all enjoyed a good guffaw from what ever end it came from.

Keep up the good work and our wind will lift us all up.

I see from my anal-ytic's that her majesty has read this too. lol That Prince Phillip is such a card, don't you think?

Omg! I love it! I read on Yahoo a couple of months ago a state here in the USA(cant remember which one) was actually petitioning to fine people for farting in public!(Dunno where they plan to go with that..what evidence is there to proove one guilty..fresh skidmarks in your underdinks upon arrest?!)

btw, got another laugh watching what ads google posted with your article:D

I read this on my phone (Android) via Twitter. I am glad I found it again on my HubFeed so that I can comment! I have to admit, I pass gas. Sorry! Sometimes it pisses off my people (sorry for the language). I was trying to think of a new phrase for passing gas, and my kids agreed that "Ass Ghost" was appropriate for the "Silent But Deadly" (SBD) ones. I thought it was funny. Anyway, I enjoyed reading this and I am still trying to think of different phrases to embrace the art of gaseous expulsion, due to Respiration, resulting in Flatulence. I appreciate how you brought out the truth that everyone farts, even the Royals. Amen to stomach stability.

This reminds me of the older couple in bed having a farting competition they were both doing very well but one of them let loose and called a half time to propose a switch of sides. I'm guessing marriage really is about sharing.

Hi thoughtforce,

I wanted to give everyone a giggle before thanksgiving and the Xmas madness, and as many of my hubs tend to be rather serious I thought I'd do something light and fluffy lol

I think I may do more like this, it was fun.

Thanks Tina

I had a good laugh with this hub molometer. Only you could combine comedy and great information about farting. In college I had just started dating this cutie pie. He was building my bed in the dorms. At one point as his butt was pointing towards me, out came a loud fart. The poor guy was so embarrassed. He turned red but never said a word about it and neither did I. LOL

By the way, check out my latest Thanksgiving hub as I mention you. Happy Thanksgiving molometer and thanks for your support and friendship here. Your awesome!

Laughed at the pics of the royals, the Queen is pretending she doesn't know the others. Lol

I am a man of many passions.

I rant hard and fight mine and my friends corner.

I love life in all it's absurdities and beauty.

There is nothing as uplifting as laughter shared with friends.

I am so happy that it tickled your ribs as that was the plan.

Wait until you see whats getting published later you'll freak. I'll give you a hint. (The dismal science) then you'll know why I had to have a laugh.

Happy sad two sides same coin. lol I'm sounding full of wind lol

It is worst of all when you are in a situation where cracking up is deadlier than farting. Something has to give, and it will either be the methane or the guffaw. We are only human.

nikashi_designs Level 4 Commenter 5 months ago

Perfect flatus hub...really fun read. It reminds me of an occasion when I went to a church to listen to Mass and for a brief minute, complete silence except the very loud explosion of resonating gas, silent laugher spread like wildfire. Thanks for laugh.

molometer profile image

molometer Hub Author 5 months ago

Well what can I say guys,

you have all had me cracking up.

I have visions in my head now, that will never leave.

The memories and experiences are hysterical and we have all been there.

The dreaded follow through to the high jinks of exploding methane with friends add to the rich tapestry of life.

I'm with MM on this one 'let's celebrate' our bottom burps.

Pyroflatulence maybe we should tap into this unused energy resource. lol

ROFL my arse off. Did I slip one, I hope not. god I can remember pulling that stunt with some drinking buddies at a party. We all wanted to see who's arse would get singed the quickest, man that flame can sure shoot across the room depending on the speed and abundance of gas being released from the arse. LoL...this was a riot, loved the video of Paula and the pic of Prince Phillip..no one is beyond a good Fart now and then, feels great, except for the nausea of gases that sometimes follow. LoL

The line "A forward burp of this nature may not only be socially quite embarrassing but potentially flammable." made me laugh ... and it would sure cure the habit of smoking fast!! lol

Hello Mrs MK,

You are very brave, I wondered who would be the first to comment on this hub. Might have guessed It would be you.

Did it make you laugh as I was in stitches writing it.lol

Nataliemk 5 months ago

What about laughing, coughing and sneezing and accidentally letting one slip? Those are the funniest as there's no guilt!

Not speaking from experience ;-) however old age will creep up on us all one day.

Have you every been in the presence of an OAP when they let rip but maintain the flow of conversation blissfully unaware of the loud expulsion of bodily gases. I have :-(( my life will never be the same.
