The dog invariably gets blamed for it in this house - even when the poor boy isn't even in the same room!

hmm someone in our house always blames one of our dogs but one's a lady, even sits with her front legs crossed and the little boy is just too cute to do such a thing.

You could always tell when it was our dog - hers had a very distinctive ‘bouquet’. Not that it stopped us blaming her! If we said, ‘Pooh, was it you?’ she’d slink off and hide behind the sofa!

My grandmother always blamed a squeaky floorboard...

I farted in front of friends and one said “if I was a gentleman I would take the blame for that, but I’m not!”

You seem over-invested in this topic OP, I see you have started another thread in the same vein hmmhmm

My dear old lady cat is to blame 🐈🗯

And I thought this was a serious thread about what and why and how to prevent!!
You gather I am a bit windy and have no dog.

I'm on the floor laughing here!

I did a huge one in the kitchen this morning but live alone so I sadly couldn't blame anyone else!

No, the username came from rather too many years’ experience of dementia. 😩

If ghostly farts are a thing, I’m surprised nobody ever blames my long-gone father, who’d sometimes remark that he was farting like a brewer’s dray-horse. Though why such horses should be particularly farty, I never found out - unless they were fed on some very wind-producing brewers’ waste products.

My grandad would offer the following comment upon hearing such activity:' Mother is playing her arsoleum again I hear'.

Pearlsaminger Sat 09-Nov-24 12:10:49

And will anyone admit to playing ‘Guess my Fart?’

I’ve seen it on TikTok and find it hilarious blush

Who annoyed you !

We once had a dog who could clear a room. OH regularly had friends around for a card evening, and doggy would manage to get under the table undetected. Invariably at some point the gentlemen would abandon their game of poker with cries of disbelief - he really was something else. Unfortunately at Christmas someone foolishly gave him leftover sprouts....

Someone did it in company, and another person said “Speak Up Brown, you’re through” Which rendered me hysterical with laughter!

We had friends who had a boxer, he was notorious for clearing a room.
We went to stay with them and a friend of hers babysat while we went out for a meal.
As the key went in the front door the babysitter was out of the floor with a hasty good night.
When we went in the living room the odour met us, it was foul, I don’t know how she sat through it, we had to open windows .
It was a standing joke for many years.

That's so funny Nanny100. I don't quite know why but it id. DH loved it too!

Usedtobeblonde Sat 09-Nov-24 12:53:31

It has just struck me how sad that has made me as I am the only one left out of the four of us to remember that evening 😰
