Gas Leak
March 14, 2008
I’m sitting in a cafe, reading, and this older dude just farted. Pretty loudly. Myself and a woman both looked up and the guy says “Sorry”. Really matter of factly.
Honestly, I was okay with it once he apologized. He owned up to it. He didn’t try to pretend it wasn’t him or ignore the fact that he just ripped one. A simple “Sorry” and we all went back to what we were doing, a tacit acceptance of his fart apology.
In my head I was thinking “Apology accepted but you’re banned for like, two weeks.” If I farted audibly in a public place I could not show my face there for at least two weeks. We’ll see if he imposes the same strict standards on himself. Had it smelled the ban would automatically jump to four weeks, so he was lucky in that regard. I’ll be watching for that guy.
