SOUNDS OF FUTURE PAST AND PRESENT PERFECT

A Question To All Moggers

Posted about 1 year ago
h1. Gas Face-h3. The face you make when taking a poo or blowing a fart. popularized by 3rd Bass in the 80'sI had this most fascinating conversation at a bar once that started with me telling a story about how one day when I was in the 8th grade I was up in front of the class reading my book report and I accidentally foofed.Now, the people I was having this important conversation with broke out laughing because they knew what I meant but hadn't heard the word before. Growing up in my family we didn't say the word fart because it was thought to be too ugly a term so we said "foofed". As the bar conversation progressed I found that most everybody had a similar word they used growing up and now I would like to know yours.

  2. goodmusiconly says hahaha ... when I was really young we referred to them as "stinkies" but later on my family used "foofed" as well. Then there was the dreaded "SBD" ...

  9. Bartleby says I've always said fart (once I used "passing wind" but it didn't sound right)

  10. waydutch says Being raised in a rather "proper" environment it was flatulence, passing gas or if being a bit more risqué than normal maybe tooting. Really! As a teen barking spiders is a phrase I remember being popular at school for awhile.

  11. ivylander says I came from a family in which to give such a revolting phenomenon a name would be tantamount to acknowledging its existence. My children have come to know them as "windy pops."

  12. contrabandwidth says My cousin used to say "Fanny Burp", which is more hysterical than anything else I've ever heard. You can't possibly say that with a straight face.

  13. dachmo says **Contra** it's hard to read that with a straight face as well. Windy Pops is pretty damn funny too, I can imagine my 6 year old niece saying that, she gets encouraged by her older brother to release as many windy pops as possible during the course of an evening. It's funny the first few times but not the 31st time.

  14. Dale says Heheheh, barking spiders! I've tried to use that one on the kids, but they're crude in that way, and they just giggle and say, "I farted!" To which we usually reply, "Yeah, no kidding, my nose hairs fell off."

  18. Groon says I couldn't tell you why, but growing up we said "ponied." As in "to pony." With my kids we say "butt burp." And after it happens my kids always giggle and say "Excuse my butt!" as loudly as possible.
