Farting in the shelters....

[longshank]

I hiked the Long trail this past summer and I shared a shelter with a couple of guys who blew the dorrs off of the place...Has anyone any funny stories to share on this topic? How about opinions on letting lose around other hikers, be they strangers or not?

You ever force a fart and draw mud? I hate when that happens.

Do you know why farts stink?

Ever try to lay cable and get nothing but fart. Disappointing.

[Just Jeff]

Yeah, but sometimes you get a pretty good fart out of it, and that's fun too.

Hiked with a guy named Vapor Trail once....on the first uphill I learned how he got his name!

Farts serve a useful purpose. Like when you get in the sleeping bag and it is still cold. Fart in it a few times to warm it up. That is why the sleeping bag is known as a fart sack in the military.

My wife doesn't appreciate my flatulence in the house. That's one of the great things about the trail. I can let 'er rip pretty much anywhere - anytime.

Funny story. Last weekend I was in Iowa. I got on the elevator, and halfway to the lobby the doors opened. In walked a cute young couple who had attended a wedding the night before. The cute little 20-something young lady lets one rip as she gets into the elevator. Well, the two of them laughed and I simply smiled.

I guess you had to be there.

My wife and I have fart and belching competitions...salt of the earth I know, but hey farts are funny!!! Her grandmother always told her if you keep them in you'll get sick. BTW, this is the same grandmother who used to hangout with Deadheads when they would come to Alpine Valley(Wisconsin) when they would come through for shows, she was a very cool lady!!! And man could she rip!!!

Naw, if you hold them in too long it gives you a headache

All that extra gas in your system can give you the bends.

On the trail in 05, Maine I believe, while hiking with the three remaining members of "Team Hustle" (Protieus, Buttah and Levi). With yours truly in the lead and about 150 yards separating the group, I was able to get a review on my release all the way down the trail as each person went through the "Kill Zone". A personal best.
