Q: Is it wrong to not say excuse me after I passed my gas?
I've done it recently just want to know if I was in the wrong or not. Is it necessary or do you consider this a natural thing that cannot be controlled? I admit I did it in places I was not supposed to do it. Would you say excuse me or rather let it go as it is a natural thing?
You should generally say you are sorry for all the stuff you let out.
Not saying that I have done this or anything. But is there any better feeling than letting off a "silent but deadly" in a crowded elevator? Even though my eyes are burning, the tears are nothing but pure pride.
mArtiAn:
I think we've all done it once or twice. I remember standing on a tube train waiting at the door for my stop. The Devil got the better of me and I decided to drop one just as I was leaving the carriage. But you know when a train stops there is a moment of complete silence before the doors open? Yeh, well I broke that silence. Sounded like a car back-firing. Should have set it to vibrate. Embarrassing.
Scandinavian:
I will not admit to doing this either, but the other day, riding down, an old woman and a child got on on the 20th floor. When they realized what they thought to be an elevator was in fact a box of terror, I couldn't help but feel proud (for whoever did the deed)
Traveler:
From personal experience, it is quite embarrassing when you try to let out a silent one in an elevator, and it is very audible instead.
Reminds me of the old joke:
"Matty" goes to meet his finances' parents.
While they are having dinner, he suddenly feels the dire need to let out some gas. Finally, unable to to hold anymore, "Matty" decides to let out just a little, so as to relieve the worst of the pressure.
As soon as he does so, the finances' father yells at the dog "Rover!!!" who happens to be lying next to 'Matty'.
-Aha!- Thinks "Matty", -they think it was the dog!- So, he lets out another.
"ROVER!!!!!" yells the finances' father again.
Emboldened, the "Matty" decides to let it all out, letting out a real loud and long one.
"ROVER!!!!!" yells the dad. "Will you get away from him??!! Can't you see he is about to sh*t on you???!!!"

Thanks, Doug!
I was on a cruise ship with a bunch of Mates
we were rolling some special cigarettes so the door was locked
One of the boys let one rip and can only be described as weapon graded
and as the cabin was below the water line there were no port holes
sort of like that movie Up Periscope
the bastard who let it rip had the key to the door and just sat there smiling as we were hammering on the door trying to get out and to fresh air
the Stuart's came and opened the door with a master key and sprayed air freshener into the cabin
You see as the deck had no windows the fowl smell went through the venting system and cleared the whole deck (60+ people)
and my so called mate just sat there laughing the whole time
and know he did not excuse himself
Silva: You let rip with a lot of shit on here and never apologise, so why would anyone expect you to apologise for farting?
when i pass my gas to sb else i always expect a thank you. when sb else passes their gas i always say thank you. what do you expect when you pass your gas?
(china needs more foreign english teachers. they clearly should be taught only from foreign english teachers)
You are Chinese, you should learn that it is wrong to pass gas in front of others.
