Let's play a game of "Which is Worse?"

Ripping a 7 second odorless fart that sounded like a machine gun with a car backfiring at the very end or unleashing a series completely silent burps that smelled like chicken nuggets that had been marinated in apple cider?

I suppose I should ask the two women who had the pleasure of standing on either side of me while at the elliptical machine at the gym.

This made me laugh out loud.

The burp is worse. Anything with foul odor takes it, hands down.

I want to go to the gym with you. That right there is entertainment!!

LOL

Posted by: Jen at December 27, 2007 7:43 PM

OMG

That's some good shit right there, good shit.

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

Posted by: CharmingDriver at December 27, 2007 8:21 PM

You rock.

I think the fart is worse. Because people will assume it is going to smell even if it doesn't.

Posted by: Suebob at December 27, 2007 8:44 PM

At least you were working out!!!! Way to go!!!

Posted by: Pops at December 27, 2007 8:45 PM

hahah did you do that?

Posted by: pookie at December 27, 2007 10:10 PM

The burb...definitely the burp. My edition of Which is Worse for this holiday was...."getting caught playing Santa or getting caught screwing Santa"???? OOOPS!

Posted by: Jerri Ann at December 27, 2007 10:52 PM

I just died in your arms tonight! I love this kind of story!

Oh my goodness! Can you imagine the stories both of these women are telling tonight to anyone who will listen?

"...so anyway, after this chick ripped a cyclone, she let loose some burps that smelled like they came from beyond THE GRAVE..."

Is your gym right next to a Buffalo Wild Wings?

Posted by: elizabethsheryl at December 27, 2007 11:28 PM

Lady, this is too funny. You can't unfart. I learned this today at work.

With the husband I'm "lucky" enough to get SBD's.
I'll take loud over Silent But Deadlys' anyday!

Posted by: grammice at December 28, 2007 4:58 AM

This is awesome. Hopefully this will be your biggest problems this upcoming year!

And I think that farts are Super Funny and would vote that they burp that stinks is much worse.

Posted by: Danielle at December 28, 2007 5:56 AM

The burp - definitely the burp. Chicken nuggets in apple cider?!? LMAO!

Posted by: Jules at December 28, 2007 6:37 AM

From my experience I wear headphones so the McCider belches would be worse although if your were doused in cheap perfume and reeked of cigarette smoke too you'd fit right in at my gym. Not that I wear that much perfume, but a guy's got to smell nice, right?

Posted by: Bill at December 28, 2007 6:45 AM

Yeah totally the fart. Just the sound alone makes you wait in anticipation of the smell. Someone with bad BO could walk by and you'd totally be blamed for it.

Posted by: Candy at December 28, 2007 7:03 AM

Ah, the burp, definitely the burp. I'd simply giggle over the fart, but stinky things are baaaad.

You are seriously funny. Hope you got a laugh out of it, too.

Posted by: FishyGirl at December 28, 2007 8:17 AM

hahhaha!!!! thanks for the ab workout!!! ;)

btw, as long as you didnt burp and fart like that at the same time, i'd forgive you. (then again it might not matter cause you'd have imploded! LOL!) did anyone lay low or duck when they heard the machine-gun fart? HAHAH!!!

...im crackin up as i walk outta the room still...ROTFL...!!

Posted by: josey at December 28, 2007 8:41 AM

Thank you for that. I can always count on you for a morning lol. This time, though, my employer is going to make me pay for the new keyboard. Damn coffee.

Posted by: Christine at December 28, 2007 8:52 AM

You must come & work out with me at my gym ( The Y) because it smells like cabbage & feet... no one would ever be the wiser.

I have a love/hate thing going on with the eliptical....

Posted by: Lauri at December 28, 2007 8:54 AM

The important thing about this post: you were at the GYM! And it's not even January yet. I tend to go to the gym regularly in January, then...not so much. By December, I'm swilling egg nog and thinking how I'll hit the machines again next month. So, you totally rock.

Are you feeling any better?

Posted by: Eliza at December 28, 2007 9:16 AM

OMG! My coffee just went spewing all over my desk!

Thanks for the laugh Y!

Posted by: Katie at December 28, 2007 9:16 AM

oh man, accidental gym farts are the worst!

Posted by: manda at December 28, 2007 9:37 AM

The burps are far worse, because smelling a stinky burp (especially from someone you don't know) is always disgusting. And a loud machine gun fart is always good for a laugh.

Posted by: Anna at December 28, 2007 10:42 AM

Definitely the smell-less option! Though both was mortifying I am sure.
Were ya nervous? HEE! :P

Posted by: Kay at December 28, 2007 11:38 AM

Dude, if I wasn't already married, I would propose to you right now. You're my kind of woman.

Posted by: Dad Gone Mad at December 28, 2007 12:10 PM

We would be best friends in real life. HA! A farting, burping girl after my own heart!

Posted by: Jennifer at December 28, 2007 1:10 PM

That is why I don't go to a gym. Not really, but I think it sounds good. Fart would be worse.

Posted by: patois at December 28, 2007 2:27 PM

This makes me so proud to be your friend.
And it's such a shame that your burps didn't smell like cook-ays!

Posted by: Heather B. at December 28, 2007 3:21 PM

Holy Cow. I needed a laugh today and I've come to the right place.

Posted by: Mama DB at December 28, 2007 4:38 PM

Now if you could just make them smell like yellow cake. Oh wait, that's under your boobs!! : )

Posted by: Laura in Michigan at December 28, 2007 5:42 PM

Haha. I think I'd rather be the burper. LOL.

Posted by: Kyla at December 28, 2007 7:40 PM

Y, thank you so much for a much needed laugh.

Posted by: Sarcastic Mom at December 28, 2007 7:47 PM

A THAT is why I don't go to the gym.

Yeah. That is my reason.

Posted by: Kelley at December 29, 2007 1:10 AM

Y - I think that I just crapped myself laughing b/c I just clicked on the "skin this" drop down menu for the first time... and thought, "Huh, will this actually change her background for me?" But I was unsure that I was getting the point, b/c there sat, "Jay Mohr" and surely, that can't have anything to do with backgrounds?

So, I clicked it.

And holy jumping vaginas, Batman! There's Jay Mohr.

Fucking hilarious, Y. I need to live here at your site lately. You make the depression go away for a little while!

Love & Kisses on your face:
Lotus:)

Posted by: Sarcastic Mom at December 29, 2007 7:45 AM

Too bad we don't live close enough to go to the gym together. We could multi-task and start a band!!

Posted by: Oh, The Joys at December 29, 2007 6:33 PM

But did you admit it? Did they know it was you? :) Thanks for the laugh.

Posted by: Daisy at December 30, 2007 9:11 AM

I don't think I have ever loved you more than I do after reading this post.

I hope you took a bow, cuz seriously, that was a work of art.

LOL.

Posted by: Redneck Mommy at December 30, 2007 4:47 PM

Ha! Thanks for making me laugh today!

About Y
My name is Y, but you can call me "Jesse's girl." I am an Aerobic Dancer and have mastered many moves, but the one I am the most proud of is "The Monkey." I have three kids. ALL FROM THE SAME DAD (Because, did you know someone actually asked me that question?) A 15 year old son, a 11 year old son and a 4 year old daughter who was not planned but who is loved more than words could ever express. I am addicted to Starbucks, reality TV and to getting really good deals through coupons and "club member" savings (Please, respect The Costco Card.) I am extremely competive and if you don't believe me, just ask my husband about the time I sold him out to win a game of Taboo. If you're waiting for the part where I speak of my love for walks on the beach or slow dancing in the rain, you're going to be disappointed because my idea of a good time usually involves things like "burping contests" and "doing The Worm".
