The shower is by far the worst place to fart. It's too pure.

I mean, if you want to get that nasally intimate with your colon that's your business.

I firmly hold true that anyone who claims to not enjoy the smell of their own farts is a liar.

Huh? Why technicolor? Isn't that where they colored in black and white film negatives with color or something like that. I don't get the connection to farting in the shower and why is it farting under a shower and not just under water isn't a different affect?

You should go fart in the shower. You'll see. It's like that scene from Ratatouille when the rat eats cheese and a strawberry together for the first time.

Hmmmmmm not sure if I'm flattered regardless that you don't know my age, that you think I made it this far in life never farting in the shower or insulted that you think I've taken so few showers that I've never experienced farting in the shower lol

Ah the cooked fart. My husband and I bonded over this very shower thought early in our courtship

Shower sex is fun until you start smelling your husband's colon in technicolor.

  1. I bet this is genuinely a shower thought.

  2. Competing hypotheses: either the higher temperatures promote travel of smell molecules, or they are water soluble.

I think it's humidity and the fact that there's no "filter"

There's a shower thought for you. "Farts would be worse all the time if we didn't wear pants."

A shower to a fart is what a cathedral is to a choir.

Why is that?

I asked Dr Karl once, but he avoided the question.

The tiny water droplets sticking to the inside of your nose and sinuses amplifies the distinct aroma of your own brand.
