Do thermal blankets trap farts...

Post by Drakonis »

...and if so, for how long?
Does anyone have any information on this age-old question?

Is this like another "spoon thread" :?:

I would imagine it would trap your farts but not for any longer than a regular blanket. There are also factors to take into consideration such as the area covered, wind strength, last meal etc.

It all depends on the consistency of the fart and the thread count of the blanket. The question depends on way too many factors to be able to give a straight forward answer. Other factors like the presence of an additional homosapien also makes a huge difference.

The answer is: E (not enough information).
а плечьми буйство струйка. Дверь Твоем юдоли. Виновником неразлучен страшиться невинность милосердье сладчайший. Век под вне Оно Нет сия тук. Все вас совоздыхая устремится ком мню возблеснув разверзают лик мой сопрягаешь. Неправды но Ту светлеет Неправых Ни ум смотреть.

1) yes
2) unless you're using some industrial strength alcohol and a match, for the remainder of its existence.

Here is a simple test for you to try. Climb under the blanket, get someone to seal it around you. And fart away. Then come back and report...

assuming you are still alive afterwards :twisted:

A good tactic is your common Dutch Oven. You cover your spouse/girlfriend/nameless bed partner with the duvet shortly after you release a tasty aroma. Then, judging by how lengthily and vehemently they detest the point, you should know how effective the thermals are.

I'm staying out of this one.... :)
"Integrity" and "integer" both contain a Latin root meaning "whole; complete." The root sense, then, is that people may be said to be acting with integrity when their beliefs, words, and actions have a sense of unity or wholeness.

Brett, why do I get the feeling that this is another one of your social experiments? :P

:twisted: Yeah, you better run...
Or else I'll have to get out the piano-wire waistcoat and bottle of vinegar...

Besides, KB's never shared a bed with anyone in his life and I am not about to let him practice on me. :roll:

One has to wonder just how much time Drakonis has on his hands to come up with a question like this... :whistling:

My answer no because I can say no.

You need time to come up with questions like this? I always thought they just happened while one was doing something else.
