Any of you hear of this one?:
This is a relatively new one on me...but my two boys (12 & 13yo) seem to be doing it everyday, if not constantly. They are calling "safety" and "doorknob" when they fart...here's the rundown from Urban Dictionary:
1. safety game
Doorknob is a game in which participants are supposed to say "safety" after they flatuate before other participants say "doorknob". This is known as "calling doorknob". If other participants call doorknob before the flatulater calls safety, then the non-flatuting participants are encouraged to physically assault the flatulater until he or she touches a doorknob. The game is generally assumed to be continuously active, and participants are frequently forced into the game unexpectedly, even against their will.
On weekends, it is not uncommon for me to guide my younger boy into his bed after he falls asleep watching TV. He is usually still mostly asleep as I gently push him in the right direction to his room and bed. Even during this seemingly full sleep state, he often says "safety" if he lets one slip out...so this is deep rooted.
