    That word is certainly not acceptable in my home or my 'circle' of friends. Flatulence would have been much more appropriate.

    Joe - That's what hoses are for! When we biked from Long Island to various parts of New England for over 15 years (I did 5 of those trips by bike), we just stayed at churches and used their hoses. Gotta say, Maine hoses are WAY colder than Connecticut hoses. Oh - and we showered in our bathing suits since we were outside. :)

    Well, I'm teaching my kids not to use the "F" word, but it's difficult to use another word that's too long, so they whisper it to me.
    No public showers....just....eew! And I never undress in front of anyone but my spouse.
    And I put makeup on. Noone wants to see that, I'll bet!
    One of the hardest parts of being in the hospital was there was no modesty at all. I love nurses to death, but "modesty" is not in their vocabulary!

    love,

    Sopranette

    Burr...cold

    A hose :eek:

    You can sure rough it! Wonderful

    Did the men and women wait in line to do this? Sounds like an inexpensive way to go.

    After riding 60-80 per day, I want a shower. There are also sinks and a mirror. I need to blowdry and style my hair with gel. Must shave and wear deodorant or I don't feel right. Maybe I'm a wimp

    Sorry I am blessed, but if you said flatulance in my presence, I'm afraid I would burst out laughing! This is the funniest word!!! It's way funnier than the "f" word. :laugh:

    You could say "silent emissions". Although some aren't so silent. :laugh:

    My kids say "toot," at least in my presence, and vise versa.

    I think Sue stole the word "Flatulence" from a Walt Disney movie. LOL

    Ummm, Joe, here in the south, twitterpated means "puppy love".

    As in: "Awww they're so twitterpated."

    Flatulence | ... 'flatus''', and is expelled from the [[rectum]] in a process also known as 'breaking wind'.

    You got it! :applause:

    We just finished watching Bambi, that's the only time I have heard the word "twitterpated". Remember the word from watching it years ago.

    But that might not mean much, as I hadn't heard of the word flatulence either....

    A friend told me Twitterpated was a made up word for Bambi. Yet I couldn't find the orgin of the word online


    Here's a portion of the movie

    I never thought breaking wind would take the topic.

    I appropriated an old phrase regarding flatulence. It was "hoist by his own petard."

    The phrase basically means one was injured by a device intended to harm others.

    One of its meanings is "bomb," used to breach city gates or walls in medieval times. Another meaning is to "break wind."

    In our family, then, flatulence became known as "hoisting one."

    Even though it's been said that the "f" word is offensive, along with the obvious action it defines, the subject has taken over this thread.
    Why?
    Because for some reason, it's the funniest thing on earth and we all know it.

    I'll bet even Bro. Shane has had a laugh or two. :p
