saying "excuse me" doesn't make you not annoying

[Bob]

is it ever appropriate to respond to "excuse me" with "no, stop doing that please"

excuse me or not, you're still belching, cut it out

[Randetica]

haha youre so cute

isnt he cute

[mickill]

What about when someone you hardly know farts in front of you and then says 'excuse me/pardon me/ooopsie sorry bout that'? I think it makes it a lot less uncomfortable if they just not say anything and we pretend that it didn't happen and both just go our separate ways.

[QueenAdrock]

Holy shit, my one friend does that. She's got these wall-shaking belches and then she giggles and says "excuse me." Sometimes I wanna be like BITCH what the hell do you do when you're at work? Hold that shit in, I know you can.

erp




Maybe you can try something like, "I've excused you repeatedly and it doesn't seem to be doing any good" then offer a variety of cork sizes.

yeah, i agree with that. i can look the other way on the occasional fart. hey, maybe it was the chair or something. if it's a constant thing, that's something else.

and burps, don't get me wrong, it happens now and then, you say excuse me and move along, but some people don't feel the need to suppress them, they think that just saying "excuse me" makes the burp not gross. really now, cut it out

[Dorothy Wood]

I LIKE TO BURP AS LOUD AS I CAN!

however, my burps don't sound that gross usually, just weird. BRAPPP!

YOU'RE A FILTHY ANIMAL THAT SHOULD BE LOCKED IN A BARN

[mickill]

Like, if you burp the whole alphabet and then go, 'pardon me', that's just kinda insincere.

[Dorothy Wood]

ooh baby ;)

[Lex Diamonds]

Next time, Bob, you should say "Excuse THIS!" and hit him with a super fast right uppercut. (y)

[abcdefz]

"Mind if I smoke?"

"No -- mind if I fart?"

i can't, it's a woman

[Dorothy Wood]

oh, women shouldn't be burping in public.

[yeahwho]

The silent brownout is the best approach. For beginners you can get away with an audible fart on the dance floor and just keep twisting away as the facial expressions scrunch all around you, then as you progress into the pro-league brownout you can do the silencer in an express 30 floor elevator and keep a straight face.

of course i would know nothing of this, just heard it during idle party chatter

[mickill]

I think that if more people were physically assaulted or tormented for intentionally burping and farting in public, this form of rudeness could reduce slightly.

[Lex Diamonds]

I think farting in public is awesome if you can get away with it. But don't be the first person to react to it, that's too obvious. So is 2nd. The best thing to do is react 3rd.

We have design and editing sessions where we'll take a blueline and, in real-time, edit it with the designers right there and so it's a meeting that lasts for hours with breaks in between and some one someone who goes to those meetings has some sort of digestion problem and the silent-but-deadlies come out and no one says anything or owns up but when they happen, some of us look at each other without raising our heads as if to say that it wasn't me and I know that it wasn't you. I think it's better that no one admits it. But it's gross air sometimes.

[jabumbo]

i hate it when people (most oftenly is loud women) who are trying to get through a crowd and are saying excuse me really loud, yet still pushing their way through anyway

[QueenAdrock]

Yeah. I also hate when people say "No offense, but..." and follow it up with something really offensive.

My one friend turns to the other "No offense, but your ass is getting fat." Oh, thanks. None taken.

that's all i'm saying. is it so unreasonable?

[QueenAdrock]

What really pisses me off is when my one friend thinks her gross-ass farts are cute. She farted in my car and THEN got out, and giggled. I swear I was thisclose to killing her.

[Randetica]

someone next to me kept non stop farting and everyone looked at me in a tisk tiskish way :(
