The socially acceptable farting game
Put the heart back into fart
These days we're all so uptight. We just need to relax and let go. Farting is natural. Accept it as part of our personalities. Love yourself and your farts.
Discover a new you
What's your unique farting style? Are you loud and proud, mischievous or a little shy? Who's farts have the strongest personality, depth of flavour and sonic tone? Who styles it out with the special moves?

Ways to play
Stealing
Convince others that someone else's fart was yours and steal the points. Best played with an 'undercover' farter or the dog.
Blocking
Block someone's fart sound by coughing. If you're really brave try covering their bum (not advised with a 'loud and proud' farter)
Timed release
No-one around to witness your fart? Hold it in, find someone then let it go
Stay out of the game. How to play by not playing.
Blaming
Point the finger and successfully blame someone else to keep your score at Zero.
Allow the steal
Poker face required. By not owning up you can let someone else steal it. If they manage to convince others, they win the points.

"She dropped the bomb!"
Totally engulfing, violently loud and noxiously rancid. Eye watering with constant waves of repeating. Its virtually impossible to get away from it.

Thick wafts of stale and stagnant gas hang in the air. Fetid and corpse-like.

"Get out of the way!"
A focused missile of foul gas speeding across the room. Don't get caught in the crossfire or it will take you down.

"Its following me"
Silent, deadly and ever present. Like an evil spirit that's attached to you it follows wherever you go. Only an exorcism will release you.

"You've woken Grandad up!"
A lightening bolt out of the blue. A sudden loud crack like an exhaust backfiring. It could shatter glass, break a hearing aid and even startle the neighbours. Unlikely to smell."

"Shall I play my bum trombone?"
Ascending or descending notes that fill the room with their delightful and amusing sounds. Like a musical score for a bum opera. More noise than odour.

"Anyone for a custard cream?"
Small but thick in quality with a nutty and musty undertone. Like you just opened your nan's biscuit tin that's been hidden in the pantry for years and released the odour of one single solitary stale custard cream.

"I love you with my all my fart"
Gentle, loving and warm. Always released in close proximity to a loved one for full effect. You say it's made with love but the receiver doesn't agree.

"More tea vicar?"
Pre-empting silent but surprisingly vocal. Usually dropped in moments of quiet. In the Church, audience at your kids play or during the final scene of a film at the cinema.

Small releases of bubbly air with a gentle simmering sensation. Warm and comforting with a slight whiff. Need to be in close range for any effect.
