nasty and very offensive? Me, i just ignore it! I don't embarass someone for such act, it should be assume that they couldn't help it, or they might have a trouble in there stomach...Im sure it could all happen to anyone... how bout you, what are your thoughts to that? be honest...

my roommate's father blames it on the animal - even if he didn't do it! he's a funny guy - on his good days

Although i do tend to think its funny when my hubby or son pass gas. I dont laugh when its those out in public. As said before, sometimes ppl just cant help it, they may have stomach issues and such. I will just go about my business and just hope i dont have to myself, because it can be embarassing.

haha.. I won't laugh, neither will i find it nasty and offensive too, because they also dun mean to fart.. Fart is uncontrollable and so why should we laugh?? ^_^ BUt if the one whom laugh, ended up being the one farting too, i will sure to be the one laughing the loudest and rubbing in with all the neccessary things till that person gets so embarassed that they feel like dying on the spot.. lol

I happen to work with a woman that just turned 50 and she does it all the time. I don't think she realizes what she's doing. Her mentality is a little backward. I think she lacks manners and brains to act so nasty. I have to walk away and bite my tongue or I'll blast her, she also will sneeze without covering her mouth along with the coughing in your facae.

During my school days i used to laugh at those when i was with my friends but being older i feel its not right to joke at people because its not at their fault so i ignore by walking on my way

While it is often funny, I'm sure the person would be embarrassed enough without my having to laugh at them and add to their discomfort. If something like that happens I usually just ignore it and pretend like I didn't notice (or hear, or smell it). Some people have no control as they age, and to me it would be rude to point it out that it was noticed by anybody. Saying something, or laughing or snickering, would only make an embarrassing situation even more embarrassing to them.
