Then, out of no where, the fart I was trying to hold comes out really loud (the chair started to vibrate), and everyone in the restaurant is staring at me. My friend looks at me like and it's like time freezes. I felt another one coming on and I couldn't just get up, so I had to let another one flap out . Then some lady goes on a rant about how "disgusting that is" and the people at the table next to me start to hold their noses .

We ate our meal and people were still kind-of staring at me. Hey, there are Waaaayyy worse things you can do at a restaurant then bust one!

So my question is, why are people so disgusted by bodily functions? It's not like they don't fart and burp!

you should have used this opportunity to comment on how loud the roar of the naval bombardment on the morning of D-Day must have been.

Thanks for the laughs.
