30 minutes = 1800 seconds

There are 8.2 Billion people

That means there are about 4.5 million farts per second across the globe. And that's just for humans.

Now do cows and estimate how much methane is released in a single fart and how much warming annually is due to cow farts.

But Melon Husk said in the Roe Jogan podcast that the effect animais have on the climate is so insignificant that it can't even be measured!!!

4.5 million farts per second

you ever hold in a fart so long you didnt have to fart anymore? you know what happens?

the gases absorb into the walls of your intestines, into the blood stream, and are aspirated out through the lungs

so let the fart out or youll have fart breath

Could this wasted energy be harnessed? In this paper I attach mini generators to the most flatulent (self-reported) members of the student body

There was a documentary about this back in the early 2000s, staring Rupert Grint as the scientist who discovered the immense power of harnessed farts.

How often do people fart? I fart a few times a day and some days not at all. I’ve never tracked it but it’s a low enough number I remember today that I farted once while going to the bathroom when I woke up. I’m off to check webmd to see what’s wrong with me now.

You fart more than that whether you are aware of it or not

Depends on the day, I'm also leaving in a lot of slack for sleep farting.

I'd say 8-10/day is a reasonable number.

That still puts it at well over a million farts/second

I haven't farted in nearly a decade. Not from my butt anyway, (it's not connected to anything)

badposting is a comm where you post badly


This is not a [email protected] alternative. This is not a [email protected] alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.

Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?


Rules:

  1. Do not post good posts.
    • Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
    • Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
  2. This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
  3. This rule intentionally left blank.
  4. If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.

Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo
