You are probably right about humor. You must be a psychologist, only someone trained would come up with a stupid comment like that. The word fart is something 5-8 year olds find hilarious. I have a lot of respect for Dr. Malone & was just very surprised that he would find that humorous. But he’s a guy & women “usually” don’t find that kind of stuff funny.

Body humor is always funny and we all fart. Or if you prefer, perhaps the word “fluffy” better suits your preference. It’s what my sister taught her daughter to say as a toddler in the event they were out in public and didn’t want her to use the word fart. Regalrdless, it’s from a meme and I’d bet you, Dr Malone didn’t make it himself. Lighten up. It’s good for your heart, not to mention your relationships

You know I was thinking this through, I will at times post these cartoons because often they say in a few words & a picture something that gets the point across deftly that a whole long article or blog just wouldn’t manage.

Instead of going to the lengths of putting down to some kind of trauma, it would be more realistic to say maybe I’m having a bad day or really I just wouldn’t use that meme because I consider myself to be a lady. It’s how I was brought up. I’m probably old enough to be your mother. So people from different generations react differently to some things. I think that’s enough said about the subject. I’m sorry that I even responded at all. It wasn’t worth it.

Farts are actually composed of micro-particles of feces. This is what is hilarious, not the word fart in itself.
