This week’s book, “The Fart Dictionary” by Scott A. Sorenson, brings us all forward into modern fart terminology. And who doesn’t loves to fart? It always feels so good! Whether it’s your own, from someone in a group, a scene in a movie, farts always get the laugh! It is the one thing that puts everyone on the same level!
We all do it. You do it, your girlfriend or boyfriend does it, your wife or husband does it, your parents do it, your grandparents do it, kids do it, the religious do it, the non-religious, the smart, the not-so-smart, the rich, the not-so-rich; heck, even presidents do it! (By the way, former President Gerald Ford was notorious for “crop-dusting” his secret service and then blaming it on them!)
So when there is something all of us can universally relate to as part of our human experience, we should celebrate it! Imagine if all the world’s leaders started farting around one another! It would be hard for any of them to get angry amongst all their laughter! “The Fart Dictionary” is one of those books in our store that everyone immediately gravitates toward, starts laughing and the book is immediately in their purchase pile.
For good reason! Who can’t relate to the “Boomerang Fart: a fart which has somehow returned to haunt you,” or the “Air Raid Fart: a fart so disgusting you need to warn others immediately?” And for all you out there who pretend you don’t fart (or don’t fart in public), this book has your fart in it, too: “Closet Fart: a fart by an individual who claims to have never farted in public.” With The Fart Dictionary, you can let ‘em rip with the best of them!
