I had a lady today tell me that she'll pray for me. I should have told her that I'd fart for her. It would have about the same outcome.
I always take this to mean that they at least care and have nothing else to offer. Being basically good people they are showing they care. I refuse t be insulted by this even though I totally agree with your assessment. And I agree that a good fart is something that when happens can be glorious, that is if you don't shit your pants. Which is happening lately.
I don't even know the lady. She's my husband's cousin's mother in law. I'll never see her again. Save your time, lady.
My farts can be pretty effective. It can make a lame man run from the room...or at lest walk fast.
