I’m sorry but what are you, 12? Especially when they’re around people and they just randomly force one out and start laughing at everyone’s reaction.
It’s so immature and frankly disgusting.

Do you work at the business factory?
That's funny, my ex (an adult male) happens to work there and he always wears a trenchcoat :)
Lost a lot of good men when that TPS generator blew!
love this lmao
Do you date a pink cat named Princess Caroline?
I have never once felt so profoundly understood in my life.
Farts are gross. We laugh when someone farts loudly accidentally to save embarrassment. Walking around farting loudly on purpose or farting on/near others is not funny
My wife and I rip ass right next to each other and laugh about it lol. I wouldn't do that with a stranger or something though
It's a little funny.
sure it is.
dropping a SBD in a crowded elevator is great!
The noises are whatever but I just can’t stand the smell
Yes! Person on my job could defend an army with what he puts out. Got trapped in the elevator with him. 😵💫
Someone once claimed my table when they called my name waiting at a cracker barrel. I got another table about a half hour later (fuckers). Me and my date finished, and the line thieves were still seated as we were leaving. I crop dusted them, and made hard eye contact as I was rounding the corner... right as the smell hit them. They knew exactly why.
Nice, man 😂
I agree!
That’s like, my main gripe
Farts are funny around family, but I can’t stand obnoxious rude farting . My kids get a pass because they are kids tho. But growing up, farts were a bad thing . I have heard my mom maybe fart twice, she denied it but I know what I heard.
I honestly don't remember ever finding farts anything other than disgusting, and people who laugh at it completely obnoxious. Like I remember being like 8 and my uncle making a joke about "sitting on a duck" and just being grossed out and embarrassed.
Same. Gross-out humor has always made me cringe, even when I was little.
Same, you never ever farted in front of anyone if you were in my family. My parents were disgusted that there were people who treated it like a burp -- you said excuse me and moved on. No, you were supposed to leave the room to do that.
that is because you were trained to think farts were bad.
My wife is religious but doesn't know why. She goes to church because she thinks it is bad if she doesn't.
Well I’m breaking the curse lol I allow my kids to fart to their hearts content. They can decide their own views on farts.
I agree with you, and luckily, Reddit is the only space in my adult life where I’ve found people consistently disagree with this.
Yes, we all fart. We also all shit, ‘lil Redditors! But there’s something called time and place. No, an adult isn’t stuck-up because they don’t laugh at you making an uncomfortable environment for everyone like a freaking toddler.
Same here. Frankly, if your thinking is so binary that it’s either “farts are funny” or “you have no sense of humor!!” I’m actually going to question YOUR sense of humor and why it hasn’t developed past a 3-year-old’s.
Oh, yeah. I know for a fact I have an extremely healthy sense of humor. So do many of my friends, given that we’re active (and many are successful) in the NYC comedy scene.
We don’t find farts funny because we’re not infants who think making others uncomfortable is amusing.
Right. Like ok you wanna fart loudly next to me and laugh? Would it be funny if i pulled down my pants and shit on the floor? Sounds hilarious to me
EXACTLY! Luckily, I really do only see this attitude in Reddit. I'm in my mid-30s, I have plenty of friends who have healthy senses of humor (I'm active in the local comedy scene), but only on Reddit do I find people who claim to be adults and also claim that farting or belching around others is anything other than extremely rude. Like, not since high school have I met people in the real world who think that kind of juvenile shit is funny.
Reddit is really opposed to the idea of decorum.
Yeah, I’ve noticed. And Redditors get real, real defensive when you suggest that their lack of decorum is an issue worth correcting.
Farting is never ... NOT ... funny.
Grown-assed 55 year old here tellin' you The Truth.
Unless it turns into a shart.
It’s still funny if it happens to someone else.
Not if it’s in your car.
That's why I have seat covers
That shit's hilarious. Especially when it happens to someone else.
Literally
I think they're kinda hilarious but as a 30 yo woman I'd feel cringy af doing it on purpose. Also when it's a stranger I get really mad if I have to smell it :').
Kurt Vonnegut, Galápagos, speculating that the next step in human evolution will be for us to lose our intelligence and evolve into sea-dwelling creatures:
“And people still laugh about as much as they ever did, despite their shrunken brains. If a bunch of them are lying around on a beach, and one of them farts, everybody else laughs and laughs, just as people would have done a million years ago.”
It’s disgusting, and immature.
Everybody farts. Its as natural as breathing and pissing.
So is shitting. And jacking off. Why draw the line there.
I draw my own line. I stopped caring what society thinks a long time ago.
Why do you assume I've drawn any line whatsoever ... let alone there?
HINT: I haven't.
I nurture my inner child with the oldest formal version of comedy. Literally, the very earliest written joke ever found had a punch line of the woman on a mans lap "making wind".
Farts piss me off. My fiancée and I both agree that purposefully farting in front of someone is rude and disgusting. It’s sometimes funny if one slips out while we are tickling each other or something but if you have to fart just go to the bathroom and do it.
Amazing how this is controversial on Reddit.
It is immature, it is gross, and it is situationally very funny.
Agree. I'm not into toilet humour but a fart at the exact right (or wrong) moment can be fucking hilarious.
Sometimes it’s the little things in life.
Human bodies are objectively disgusting. We do gross things, produce gross stuff, so you might as well laugh about it because you can't change it. Better to have a sense of humor about it than constantly be ashamed to the point you're either embarrassed when it happens or you try to hold everything in all the time and make yourself super uncomfortable or worse.
You know there are other options than “Laugh at making others uncomfortable” or “Be ashamed,” right?
it is only gross if you think it is gross. It is natural so it doesn't freak me out.
I will derive joy from farts as long as I live. I don't associate with people who can't laugh at a fart. It's something that everyone experiences and it brings people together for a hearty laugh, I love that.
We all know you fart. But you probably scowl while you rip it
No, I just do it in private.
Or supplies and denies 😱
Lol, an even greater offense!
but we all know he who smelt dealt.
He who said the rhyme, did the crime
And I think it's the mark of an incredibly rude, immature, and annoying person; I also don't want to associate with people who find that kind of low brow humor "hilarious." We don't have to be friends, you can enjoy your Nascar or whatever it is you people like.
That's funny... I like science and horticulture, as well as mycology. I also like deriving joy from the little things in life.
Do you scold yourself whenever you fart alone? You don't laugh, but just feel shame? Lol
OK. Good for you. I find farts to be the sign of a juvenile sense of humor, and people who think it's the height of humor are, generally, stupid and irritating.
I tend to find people who can never find merit in juvenile behavior to be, generally, joyless, pretentious, and insufferable.
We all know you fart.
There. We all do it. Often can't avoid it. May as well enjoy it.
Thing is, people with double digit IQs don't want anything to do with some troglodyte that laughs at farts
ok LongLiveTheQueef1...
People with triple digit IQs realize that humor is subjective and all humor is valid. It matters only a little about what makes a person happy, only that they are happy.
Sadistic sociopaths laugh at other people’s pain and suffering.
Would you be one of those people with a double-digit IQ?
ever fart in someone's mouth before?
Fuck no lol
Good for you i guess?
Not to brag, but I am thankful that I am capable of experiencing joy from such a simple, accessible source heh
I'm glad I haven't allowed my inner child to wither and die so I can't feel joy over a funny sounding fart.
If you ever stop enjoying farts, you'll have significantly less enjoyment and the same amount of farts.
Words of wisdom.
But how on earth can anyone enjoy something that’s objectively unpleasant for those around them? I can’t imagine having that kind of main character syndrome.
That's on you for thinking it's "objective"
We evolved to find the odor of farts unpleasant because they carry particles of waste and harmful gases. Humans evolved to find the odor unpleasant.
Do… do you actually think people enjoy the smell of your flatulence?
Farts are always funny
always *never
always never *occasionally
occasionally > as long as you can't smell them, they're funny
I will say there’s always a time and place, and it is really unfunny when it is not the time or place.
Agreed.
I don't think it's funny but it never really bothers me when other people do it around me. Unless there's a horrible smell that comes with it, I just ignore it and move on.
I think sometimes we forget that even though we are human, we are still animals in the biological sense. Everyone needs to burp and fart sometimes just like how we all need to use the bathroom. It's not disgusting, it's just a biological necessity that we've decided is inappropriate in polite company. It's only really gross if you try to do it intentionally to get a rise out of people, otherwise it's just how our bodies operate.
100% agree OP
You're so right and I don't get these comments. Farts are funny?? Maybe when you're 12 years old, yes...
Pull my finger, OP.
It is immature. Sometimes we just like being immature. Unless it's particularly grotesque, or a Liar Liar elevator moment (IT WAS MEEEE!) it's harmless.
Listen, farts are funny. Sometimes my girlfriend relaxes and one slips, that funny. Sometimes you go to pee and a massive one rips, funny.
Now if you force a belch at a funeral? Not funny. Rip ass at a fancy dinner party? Not funny.
We're all human. Farts are funny, burps are funny. But there is a time and a place to be funny.
I feel the same. I can’t stand it. Poop jokes too. There are so many other things that are funny and to joke about
So you're saying poop jokes are shit?
No, I agree with you. I never remember finding it funny.
I never found it funny. Its just a normal thing that animals do
This includes media
With the increased frequency of such events as you get older it would do you good to learn to laugh at it all. Your alternative will be to be permanently mortified. ;)
I agree. I have only ever burped silently and held as silly as I could do as not to clue anyone in and have only ever farted while sitting on the toilet. Unless you are an infant or so old, your mind has left you, that you have no clue what you’re doing so might as well be an infant or you’re deaf, both of these are 100% controllable and both can be done silently. I too never found either funny and the fact that there’s a possibility you could throw up or shit your pants while doing either should seriously stop people from especially forcing both to happen.
At work I was helping a coworker lift a big box off the ground. he squared down and as we started to lift he ripped a fat one n I laughed my ass off. I'm 31 and farts are fucking hilarious but context matters. The master of disguise fart joke was the best part of that movie hands down. It's a low bar but my statement stands
It's rude and improper etiquette.
What if I hold my pink out?
Are you wearing a cool hat though?
Hold out your pink what?
God dammit. I hate my lack of proof reading. Pinkie. Pinkie finger tbc.
um lets see here, 12 finds something easy and stupid to laugh at increasing their quality of life for that moment vs adult who stands there all angry faced.... yeah idc if im fucking 80 im laughing at farts and burps. I'm also wearing silly clothing to malls and riding a bike and anything else that brings joy and laughter. The idea that being an adult means being serious and miserable all the time just makes me not want to be an adult. Im out for a good happy enjoyable life, im not out here to be miserable, especially not at the behest of someone else who isn't contributing any happiness to my life lol. You got asks, better pony up. I'll take payment in the form of company while doing fun shit thank you.
I've never understood why people think farts are funny
Because we don't live with sticks up our asses.
I just farted like 3 minutes ago. It was hilarious.
my ex did this. she was immature as all fuck.
She is happier without you.
She was a pedophile and preyed on me at 14, so I’ll be glad she’s happier without me
It is funny because this post cones off as childish to me. Once I had kids you kind of have to get over the ick of this stuff and it is just funny.
I love that you mention having kids as the criteria because it reminds me of a conversation I kind of participated in a few years back.
I was walking my dog around they neighborhood like I did every day. We passed a fenced corner yard. All I could see was the occasional face of a kid as they bounced on a trampoline. One of them farted. They all laughed. Dad scolded them from the patio, telling them all to settle down because farts aren't funny.
So they settled down as I rounded the corner. As soon as it was quiet, I blasted one purely for their benefit. I wanted to escape silently but I couldn't help laughing at the chaos I'd just set off in that yard.
Nice 😂
Fährt
My ex-husband was like this. Could not understand when I didn't laugh along with him.
Glad he left ya and is happier now.
Ha! He's dead!
Poor guy
He's in a better place now....
At home, that’s hilarious. In public, it’s not as funny. It’s still funny though.
I gotta fart don’t I? If it’s comes out and it’s heard oh fucking well, it’s a normal bodily function
True maturity is embracing immaturity where appropriate.
Depends on the timing, but it isn’t always funny.
Why do you want your wife to smell your shit particles ?
My dad does that exact same thing but doesn't realize just how immature I take his behavior when he does it. Acts like a total golden child too.
23 here, farting is bleh to me but burping always makes me laugh. tbf everything makes me laugh though so idk
He who smelt it dealt it.
I find it funny. It is a funny sounding natural bodily process.
It is only unfunny and disgusting to people who like to make rectum diamonds out of coal.
I was a Marine, and part of the training to be an embassy guard involved a trip to the main State Department building, and we got a special treat that they never do for any of the MSG classes, we were going to be given a tour of the Secretary of State’s office. We passed word back down the line mischievously and as we all filed in a thunderous roar echo’s down the hall as 90 Marines all NCO’s and above farted rapturously in Hillary Clinton’s office. It was hilarious.
If they're intentionally making a spectacle, yes it's immature and not funny. If it's inadvertant and they're embarassed by it, it's a little funny ONCE.
Which seems to be everyone in Hollywood these days. Oh how I miss witty writing like in Designing Women and Frasier!
I totally agree with you. It’s so uncivilized.
I’ll see myself out…
brap
😂
It's gross! And at 12 I was the farting kid. Now I never do it in front of people especially my wife!
I 100% agree with you. It’s immature and rude.
I've never understood this, either. It's so juvenile. It's awkward, so I guess the laughing is just to cover the awkwardness.
"It’s so immature and frankly disgusting." sure, and funny AF though.
Of the immature things I enjoy as an adult that hurt no one, farting and burping loudly is on that list. Being affected by this, imo, shows an intolerance for trite things immaturity I'm not so ok with.
An exgf/now friend has crazy impressive belches. I love hearing from her "That was a good one" to this day.
Lemme paraphrase something I once heard. The taoist does something immature and child-like. "Grow up!", says some jerk. "Certainly not!" is the reply.
When grown adults think burping and farting isn't funny
Its always funny. This is a you problem op
Oh, you're so mature for noticing.
If you don’t find farts funny, I wouldn’t want to be around you.
Fine.
I don't want to be around people whose sense of humor is "haha funny noise, fart, haha so random." Those people are annoying and boring.
It’s visceral and reflexive, but sadly not available to those po-faced naysayers and joy-hoovers who have undergone a series of sense-of-humour bypass surgeries.
This so immature, and frankly disgusting, chap sends thoughts and prayers… https://viz.fandom.com/wiki/Johnny_Fartpants
People not finding farts funny only makes it funnier. You are only proving yourself wrong.
I'm so with you. Potty humor is so asinine. If my literal twelve year old boy can behave with some basic manners and have a more sophisticated sense of humor than that, then surely an adult can manage.
I make fart noises when my colleagues bend over. Gets em every time.
I would report you to HR.
The older I get, the more my inner 12 year old boy child comes out in me. I will laugh at farts and I will not apologize.
don't take life so serious
This is funny. Most of the ones who think it is funny are men. Most who don't understand it are women.
Yes, to a man, it can be hilarious. We might have developed a mature sense of humor as we age, but we don't get rid of the old sense of humor.
So yeah. We can react to childish humor. Why tf do you want to always act grown up?
I just think it’s rude to force others to smell your shit particles. I haven’t thought they were funny since I was like 12. I’m actually a pretty childish adult, I watch cartoons, I eat a lot of kid meals like chicken nuggets, etc but farts piss me off because I don’t want to smell it but now I have to leave where I’m at so I don’t have to smell it or stay and be subjected to a horrible shit smell which is sometimes not possible like in a car or something.
I think you guys have a really weird definition of grown. Farts are immature but going to watch avengers endgame is really mature and bitching about people spoiling a fucking comic book movie with dialog written for 6 year olds to understand is extremely mature.
I am trying really hard to understand what you are saying here. What do movies and comics have to do with natural bodily functions? I'm not trying to be deliberately obtuse, I'm just not catching what you are throwing out.
I fart loudly in public and keep a stone cold poker face.
Come on, farts are funny. They come out of nowhere and they sound funny and stink lol.
Farting will always be funny.
Sorry but loud farts will always be funny.
Look me in the eyes and tell me with full honesty that if you were sitting in a quiet area and somebody ripped the loudest ass out of nowhere when you least expected it, you wouldn’t burst out laughing
To heck with you. Farts are funny.
Depends on the circumstance .
It pisses me off when people try to do it when you're in an enclosed area .
And then there's also my mother. I've had visits with her the majority of my life in public spaces. And she deliberately lifts her butt up to let the biggest and loudest and smelliest facts rip. She doesn't care and thinks it's OK to do.
However if I'm with my friends or sibling and there's a fact it tends to be hilarious.
Sometimes the burp surprise me. But if I hear someone else release there tummy troubles.. I’m gonna release a giggle
Yes I'm 12
I understand but this episode on parks and rec when Jerry bent over and split his pants /farted at the same time had me laughing longer than I'm willing to admit . I'm 28 f BTW
Know why farts stink? So the deaf can enjoy them too.
Farting will never not be funny.
If you don't laugh at farts you still have the same number of farts in your life but less laughs.
I'm a 24 year old 12 year old.
Farts will never not be funny. OP, take the stick out your ass.
Agreed that it's not funny to force out farts for a laugh
But I definitely giggle when my dog farts, before the stench overwhelms the room.
Blowing ham is a love language in my family
My dad once told this joke at a deaf church "why did God make farts smell? So deaf people could enjoy them, too" and not a single person laughed except the kids. Legendary
But 10000 years ago nobody cared. Why do we care so much ? I’m not one to fart or burp on purpose in front of others. But we are human our body is supposed to do that. Cats and dogs fart all day long. If you know or deal with someone like that then move around them or whatever stop talking to them. But as mammals we all do that sometimes it’s uncontrollable
you're opinion is wrong. it's funny
I inherently can’t trust anyone that doesn’t find flatulence funny.
When I turned 36, I just became three 12-year-olds in a trench coat, yes
