I've told this story before recently, but somehow it seems vaguely apropos.
When I was a kid, I tried adding fried spam to mac and cheese.
As you can tell, my mom was very concerned about my diet, AKA, not at all, and she just let us do whatever the fuck we wanted to do.
So anyway, it was alright. It was not a meal I would repeat. But in addition to the fact that it was not very good, that night at three o'clock in the morning, my butthole woke me up.
This is not a normal occurrence in my life. In fact, in all of the years since then it has never happened again.
My butthole woke me up to let me know that it was about to open, and it opened, and exhaled one long continuous fart for what felt like two solid minutes.
There was no sound, it was completely silent, it did not rattle my cheeks. It was just a whoosh. Like my butthole had been waiting to exhale its entire life and finally got the opportunity.
At first I was like, why am I awake?
Then I was like, wow, this is a really long fart.
Then I was like, dear god, why has this fart not stopped yet?
Then I spent the remaining minute and 30 seconds of the longest fart in my entire life, absolutely flabbergasted that it was still happening. I wish I had shit the bed, I would be less traumatized.
I reviewed the article but not the paper direct but this could be very beneficial knowledge for gi doctors. I wouldn't be surprised to see this at least nominated for a ig nobel prize.

Most people fart before taking a shit. You probably don't think of it as a fart just because you're on the toilet. But it is indeed a fart.
BlushedPotatoPlayers@sopuli.xyz · 4 pts · 56d
One from 7 to 9, and one for the afternoon from 19 until 21
SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 56d
It's two long farts.

Some scientist is like "Jerry, you fart so much I wrote a research paper about it. "
TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world · 43 pts · 57d
Just one, long fart per day is all you need.

How did it smell?
bizarroland@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 56d
It was either completely odorless, or before it was done, I was nose blind to it.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 55d
that sounds like a post-colonoscopy fart

Who knows, maybe that was the night I was abducted by aliens?
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 55d
i've never met any aliens who were into that shit, but like most of the ones i know don't even abduct people let alone probe them.

I believe the scientific term is 'cropdusting'
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 56d
I feel seen.
You want it nice and deep. A truly satisfying fart might cost you a tooth
Lemminary@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 56d
Where is that tooth coming from. WHERE? D:
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 56d
you pay the tooth fairy with the tooth to bury the fart waaaaay up there. sorry, i thought this kind of deal was common

Sounds like you may have some sphincter trouble there. Too much olestra?

One, long fart, you say?

Well. Except for No Fart November. There's a peptide for it and everything [there isn't].

No Fart November? Oh man, I was doing something completely different.

Number isn't what's important. What matters are volume and volume.

6401 at least!
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 56d
And they're all constantly farting?
I didn't read the farticle this is more fun
AceSLive@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 57d
Oh, I am not ok then... I think some days I fart more than I talk...

Anivia@feddit.org · 2 pts · 56d
Sounds like you just have a healthy protein intake. A positive nitrogen balance will cause you to fart more often

I’d love to have been a fly on the wall with the panel required to approve a flatulence study that uses an app called “Chart Your Fart”

That's just because they didn't include me, Jimmy Fartling.. They said I was an outlier and the lab hasn't stopped smelling like cabbage

Wtf? Do these scientists explicitly eat ultraprocessed food that becomes Portland cement in your guts and kills all the bacteria in your microbiome?
Tollana1234567@lemmy.today · 6 pts · 56d
you dont need to eat ultraprocessed, just alot eggs or cauliflour or broccoli
SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 56d
Protein. The stink comes from protein rich in methionine and cysteine amino acids, that's where the sulfur comes from.
Do we really need science to tell us people fart more after eating a heavy meal?
Kolanaki@pawb.social · 5 pts · 56d
I drink so much carbonated stuff, I fart constantly.
SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 56d
Carbonation releases the C02 before the stomach.

Fast increases around breakfast and after evening meal, also the app they made was called 'chart your fart'
