I must say, I expected more TFP boffins to be in here chin-stroking and frowning on us lowbrow farters. I always find trumping funny. It's a comical noise.
Back in February, I was at college, studying journalism. We went to crown court to have a go at court reporting, and we were all sitting in the public gallery straining to hear what was going on and trying to wrap our inexpert shorthand around what was being said. This guy in the public gallery sat next to me was the next defendant up, and stank of booze. All of a sudden he lifts up a leg and 'quack!'
God, I was trying so hard not to laugh... He was up on an assault charge - given that I looked for all the world like a reporter anyway.
Mind you, I don't find it funny on TV or in films, unless the show is exceptionally funny anyway and the fart joke is just window dressing.
