I’m a sucker for a fart joke

Seven of the Greatest Farts in Western Literature

A mildly amusing romp from a woman who spent her twenties writing Serious Literary Papers. I mostly enjoyed the exploration of euphemisms. Rump trumpet. Butt horn. Ass cornet. Bum bugle. Booty kazoo.

I also appreciated this snippit of Chaucer:

This Nicholas just then let fly a fart
As loud as it had been a thunder-clap,
And well-nigh blinded Absalom, poor chap.

There, I have stolen the beating heart of her essay. Mostly, I just wanted an excuse to post this picture. That goat thing looks so guilty.

Uncle B will tell you, I’m helpless before a fart joke.

Curhat ya, aku udah 2 tahun nganggur setelah lulus kuliah IT karena nggak pede sama skill. Baru-baru ini mulai aktif belajar lagi lewat artikel-artikel online. Yovi Mahendra jadi salah satu referensi andalan, soalnya bahasanya nggak bikin minder. Semoga tahun ini bisa dapet kerjaan deh.

Beware: more than one link in a comment is apt to earn you a trip to the spam filter, where you will remain -- cold, frightened and alone -- until I remember to clean the trap. But, hey, without Akismet, we'd be up to our asses in...well, ass porn, mostly.
