    Ah I dunno, I'm pretty bad myself but a mate of mine actually wakes himself up at night with the smell of his own farts. Now that takes skill!!

    I wholeheartedly agree. I worked in a bar and nightclub shortly after the smoking ban came in. I would regularly have to walk through clouds of fart.

    Leave the Tongans out of this. Besides there is no McDonalds on Tonga.

    But there have been rumours that they can "Nuke you a loaf" whatever that means.

    so thanks for your "feedback" about my observation.

    please note that I made no definitive value judgment on your farting activity, and I am neither fat or lazy or whatever stereotypes you laid down in this thread about my blog post.

    I am enjoying reading your input immensely. However I am still positive that the Irish love public farting much, much more than Americans.

    Are you not familiar with the saying When in Rome...?

    Youshould try it, it is very satisfying. Especially if you can fart and run whilst keping an eye on the scene of the crime :D

    Well, if it was Renee Zellweger, it might explain why her face perpetually looks like she's holding one back.

    Marylin Monroe was well known to enjoy letting a phew, and not worrying who was around when she did!

    Maybe it was a typo, farmers, farters... easy mistake to make. It would also explain the hygiene issues she experienced, just sayin.

    "Let's talk about farms."

    When I first got to Ireland, the first couple of pubs I walked into, my first thought was, "Yeesh! Yikes! It kinda smells like farms in here!" I thought it was a coincidence, like maybe it just happened that the few places I went into happened to have plumbing problems.

    However, now that I've been here over three months, I can say, *WITH CONFIDENCE* that Ireland has a farming issue. It's not the plumbing. People let their business out here all over the place. In the pub, as the night progresses, it just gets stronger. And it's not just the pubs. Today in the movie theater, before the movie started, you could hear someone farming. And then by the time the film was over, you could smell the smell of gas so strong, we couldn't wait to get the hell out of there

    PEOPLE IN IRELAND LOVE TO FARM. There, I've said it."

    Ah yes, makes perfect sense now:p

    reading a blog by an American woman in Ireland she says we're a nation of farters.
    I don't think she's the first person to notice this, there was a lot of threads on this after the smoking ban came in.
    I agree with her on this and would even say that Irish people have bad hygiene in general - not flossing or showering every day.

    Perhaps it is the lack of air conditioning in Ireland.

    I have noticed for travelling to other countries, each has it own smell that the locals do not notice.

    Er, don't know if you've been walking around with your eyes open lately, but Ireland and the UK are catching up if they haven't already.


    All the farting is from drink and ****ty takeaways.

    Isn't some entreprenuerial person not missing a great opportunity here.

    The collection of this abundantly available gas could be the saving of the planet.

    I am about to begin my design process for the fart collection machine for every day use. The wearing of this machine will allow contributors to claim a tax allowance.

    The only place where the machine will be allowed to be removed is public houses where the gas can be collected as a group thing and farting will be strongly encouraged in this enviroment.

    On a more serious note people that are used to air conditioning may not be prepared for non air-conditioned pubs.
