Last week, in a moment of frustration, I asked my husband if he could do anything without farting.
"I fart because I love you," he said simply. I wasn't convinced. He came home from work the next day with a very pretty, zen-like flower arrangement and a card. I reminded him that I am cursed with two Black Thumbs of Death, and after he assured me he'd water the plant (which he has yet to do), I opened the card.
The caption inside? "Love is in the air."

[snort] too funny! “hey honey give me some loves..bbrrzztth…ah, that’s better!”
February 6th, 2006
Isn’t it funny the kinds of cards they make now? It’s like they just REALLY know what real people are like!
February 6th, 2006
Hehehe! And the pic just shows the love even more!

LOVE the card.
February 6th, 2006
*rolls eyes* it must be love.

That IS sweet! My husband’s farts just drive me from the room. Or wake me up from a dead sleep.

[wipes away tears of laughter. catches breath]
Ooookay, that was funny.
Hubby has a very young cousin who farted one day at the table. Her brother looked at her and said, “You farted!” A very indignant look crossed her face and she said, “Mine no fart. Mine POOT!” My point: there’s a whole lotta pootin’ going on here too!

*blush* We say that we’re blowing each other a kiss when we, ahem, I mean he, farts.
February 7th, 2006
OMG that is HILARIOUS!!!!!

Your husband is my husband’s clone. “You know I really love you when I fart in front of you. It means the mask is off and I’m being my true self.”
He’s the king of romance.
February 7th, 2006
LOL
That’s the best.
At least you got flowers because your husband farts, the rest of us don’t!
February 7th, 2006
Just the fact that he took the time to find a card that made his EXACT POINT shows that he is madly in love with you!
Most men just go in like cavemen: “Card…card…flower… pretty flower.”
LMAO!

The other day I actually considered putting deodorant maxi pads in Hubby’s underwear, wondering if that would absorb the scent (or at least filter it).
I didn’t do it, though…something tells me he wouldn’t go for it!

My Mom says she’s going to invent an air freshener for men’s asses that filters the air and makes it smell like roses.
Your hubby is so cute.
February 7th, 2006
Oh dear, that is exactly the phrase that pao has uttered to me whilst emitting some foul odour.
February 7th, 2006
LOL, nice.
February 7th, 2006
So good to know I’m not the only one with a “romantic” husband.
February 7th, 2006
Awww. That is true love. Cards, flowers and farts, what more could a girl ask for?
February 7th, 2006
I threaten mine with Glade Suppositories …
February 7th, 2006
omg… I think even I could get past the smell with a sentiment like that!! nice story!
February 7th, 2006
Glade Suppositories! LOL!
February 7th, 2006
Oh that’s my husband to a tee.
For our first Valentine’s Day, he got me a card that read “I love you more than beer.” Deep, deep sentiment.

My husband calls it “Shooting a bunny.”
I think he and your husband must be related.
February 7th, 2006
Hahahahahaha!
He would get along with my husband, too.
Jim gave me the same birthday card two years in a row (he forgot the second time)…all about farting.
February 7th, 2006
Mr. Half though excessive farting was normal until I bought him some Lactaid. And there was much rejoicing in the land.
February 7th, 2006
You should nickname him Pepe Le Pew!
February 7th, 2006
Y’all are cracking me up over here. Blowing each other kisses…shooting bunnies…I’m so glad I’m alone here in The Land of Great Flatulence.
Melanhead, the first thing I thought of when I saw the card was Pepe Le Pew. He was always my favourite; it makes sense that I married a constant farter. ;)
February 7th, 2006
Yes.
I think of men farting as the modern-day equivalent of the cave man beating on his chest. It says, “I am a man! Take notice!”
February 8th, 2006
hehehe…I love it. He clearly has a great sense of humour.
