Why is it so hard to be adult? With things like this, we should act as if nothing happened. We all know that.

No one in Congress farts harder than Eric Swalwell

Aggie বলেছেন...

The freedom to vote? Where in the US is that under threat, one wonders?

gilbar বলেছেন...

heh heh! he said Fart! what a doofus!

gilbar বলেছেন...

this year, it was Almost impossible for fictitious persons to vote in MANY States.
we NEED to Make Sure, that Every vote counts.. ESPECIALLY the fake ones, the Democrat Party FAILS!

Justabill বলেছেন...

Is it not adult to laugh at such things? I’m getting younger every day.

You mean like the Democrats do when Trump's speaking? Count your blessings- at least the Republicans aren't trying to imprison or kill Jeffries.

Skeptical Voter বলেছেন...

Ah good old Hakeem. This doofus was nearly Speaker of the House today . But he can go out and have a bowl of chili--heavy on the beans--with Eric Swalwell. And I mentally ten years old and amused by fart jokes? I plead guilty--at least where fellows such as Swalwell and Jeffries are concerned. I'll even make a Depends joke about Joe--but he's moving out of range these days. .

David53 বলেছেন...

I hope he runs for President sometime soon.

Justabill বলেছেন...

Honestly, when I was younger, I was appalled when my father would laugh uproariously at such simple things. Now I am older and I get the joke.

Jupiter বলেছেন...

Act as if nothing happened, except, use it to pad your blog-count!

My late wife insisted that God has a sense of humor, but it's the sense of humor of a 15 year old boy.

"We shall fart in France, we shall fart on the seas and oceans, we shall fart with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fart on the beaches, we shall fart on the landing grounds, we shall fart in the fields and in the streets, we shall fart in the hills; we shall never surrender."
What Winston Churchill really said.

Krumhorn বলেছেন...

I just returned this week from Austria and Germany where every exit on the road is labeled Ausfahrt. Since I'm really 14 at heart, I laughed myself silly and made rude juicy bathroom noises at every sign. I should mention that my wife wasn't nearly as amused.

rehajm বলেছেন...

haha!

rehajm বলেছেন...

I just played it for my wife without prompt and she laughed. Apparently she’s a girl…

William50 বলেছেন...

Pull my finger

Wince বলেছেন...

Don't laugh. I came up through the school of hard farts.

walter বলেছেন...

Don't be an old fart!

“You (pl) drive” in German is “Ihr Fahrt”, which is pronounced “Ear fart”.

There was a polka band leader named Whoopee John Wilfahrt, who toured the Upper Midwest with his Six Fat Dutchmen. His publicity stated that "Whoopee John Wilfahrt and His Band Will Play". His grave can be found in New Ulm, MN.

Narayanan বলেছেন...

if he fart hard he may want to leave basement and campaign in open air!!

James K বলেছেন...

Today we think of it as childish, but that sort of humor was common among adults in the Renaissance and Enlightenment periods. Rabelais is famous for it. Mozart's letters have a lot of it. Just to name a couple of examples off the top of my head.

Narayanan বলেছেন...

Hitler vegetarian was famous farter!! killed himself! so sadz

victoria বলেছেন...

Really? it was the Republicans who were behaving like toddlers, not the Dems. Getting threatened by their fellow Republicans if they didn't vote the way that their dear leader, DJT wanted them to. Nothing good will be achieved by this congress unless they are ALL willing to work toegther, not like the Comer's and the Gym Jordan's who want to fight fight fight against the will of their constituents.

victoria বলেছেন...

He would be a 1000 times better than the "man'" due to be inaugurated.

Peachy বলেছেন...

So sad blacks can't vote. They also don't have IDs.

Peachy বলেছেন...

our side argues and have different opinions. Democrats are hivemind loyalists and don't give a damn about the American people.

victoria বলেছেন...

no, Peachy,. Your side whines and complains and tries to bully people into voting for their causes. Dems are the thoughtful and decisive ones. Good try.

victoria বলেছেন...

Serously? You actually believe that?

Peachy বলেছেন...

It's hot garbage for their stupids who need to be groomed as victims. Lies work well to accomplish.

Heh, heh, heh, heh ... she said "hard."

Get it, Beavis?

Original Mike বলেছেন...

OK, that's funny.

Justabill বলেছেন...

My father said that, during WW2’ an officer he served under with a bad command of the German language shouted the equivalent of “halt, or I’ll shit,” and everyone, American and German, started laughing.

Ann Althouse বলেছেন...

Of course I laughed too when I heard the clip. I’m not saying people don’t laugh at things like this. I’m saying the decision to share it,to put it on your social media account, to purvey it.. that’s something you think about before doing and I think you shouldn’t do. I’m aware of that. I can be accused of doing it here and I cop to that.

Jim at বলেছেন...

It's going to be a long four years for you. Here's a tissue.

BUMBLE BEE বলেছেন...

Somebody(D) says "fart" and Victoria comes running. Summoned?

Jim at বলেছেন...

Snort. Sad part is? You actually believe that shit.

Original Mike বলেছেন...

Can I have a toke?

Yes, but what really releases your inner ten year old boy is visiting the Kunst Museum.

Aggie বলেছেন...

I'd be happy to cut slack and respect the honor and the solemn dignity of the Chamber and the Seats of Power - if their actions there would only start to reflect some kind of similar, shared values.

Arashi বলেছেন...

What in heaven's name is Victoria smoking and why won't she share?

Lem Vibe Bandit বলেছেন...

I fart softly and carry a big… smile.

Jamie বলেছেন...

My sister just reminded me about a friend of hers from high school. This friend's mom was a lovely, lovely woman, incredibly innocent for an Air Force wife. At one point, apparently, her husband left their house without the dark blue double-pointed hat (I'm struggling with how to describe it but most have surely seen it - like an opened envelope that you put on your head) that was standard Class B uniform. She caught him in the driveway from their doorway, there on Officers' Row, by loudly calling out, "You forgot your c*** cap!"

She had no idea that c*** was a bad word. I, when I heard this story, had no idea the hat - my dad's hat, for heaven's sake - was colloquially called that. My sister, the bridge between these two types of ignorance, knew everything.

Iman বলেছেন...

All farting aside, look at Jeffries’ eyes and ask yourself are these the eyes of an honest, well-intentioned straight shooter ?

Joe Bar বলেছেন...

Farts.....Always funny.

Iman বলেছেন...

Victoria is awaiting the return of the sausages…

Iman বলেছেন...


“no, Peachy,. Your side whines and complains and tries to bully people into voting for their causes. Dems are the thoughtful and decisive ones. Good try”

I’ll admit to enhancing that one with a classic “sad trombone” fart. Puurrrfect!

Oh come on Vicky--the Dims vote in lockstep all the time. They are so conditioned after a few years under the Wicked Witch of the West that they vote however the party "dear leader' tells them.

Aggie বলেছেন...

Leslie Nielson went onto the Tonight Show once, with Johnnie, and brought his professional-grade Whoopie cushion with him and proceeded to tell a very funny story of how he had sneaked it into some kind of Hollywood awards dinner. He told the story while manipulating the thing the whole time, generating a whole spectrum of farts - loud, long, dry, juicy, etc. Everybody was laughing, you can't help yourself.

NorthOfTheOneOhOne বলেছেন...

...the dark blue double-pointed hat (I'm struggling with how to describe it but most have surely seen it - like an opened envelope that you put on your head)...

For future reference it's officially referred to as a garrison cap by the US military.

Aggie বলেছেন...

In fact, it was his favorite running joke - on his grave marker is his epitaph, "Let 'er rip", I sh*t you not.

Paul Zrimsek বলেছেন...

Introduce all the voting-rights bills you want, but you'll have to make a deal with the Republicans if you want to pass one.

Narayanan বলেছেন...

Is it not part of the Congressional Record? and archived for posterity?

Narayanan বলেছেন...

Maybe Victoria self propelled reactionally?!

Tacitus বলেছেন...

He had that sign on his tour bus too.

C'mon man, who doesn't love a good fart joke?

"Serously? You actually believe that?"

Just because there have been two attempts to assassinate him and he is going to be sentenced in a few days for 32 felonies, for listing legal expenses as legal expenses, not to mention the many other instances of lawfare is no reason to believe our lying eyes.

Eric the Fruit Bat বলেছেন...

In some countries your waiter or waitress will ask if you want your water with gas so it behooves any civil person to exercise self-control to keep it from becoming a runny joke. See what I did there?

Two-eyed Jack বলেছেন...

You know, people wouldn't have been nearly so impressed if Trump had been shot and had then stood up and shouted "Fart, fart, fart!"

Jamie বলেছেন...

Thank you! Of course I knew it couldn't actually be called a c*** cap.

Jamie বলেছেন...

Serously? You actually believe that?

Cue the video of Pelosi ostentatiously tearing up Trump's State of the Union text, while directly behind the then-President, on national television.

It's a guy thing. Like lighting farts.

I lived for awhile in Düsseldorf, Germany. Just up the road from Titz.

In the Marine Corps, it’s called a piss cover. I could never quite fathom why, but your story offers a possibility.

Agree, Ann. But Internet forums seem to bring out the inner 5th grader in commenters.

Lazarus বলেছেন...

You could say that about a lot of politicians. I look at him and wonder who's really running things on his side of Congress. It doesn't seem like he's really in charge or like his caucus would take orders from him.

Iman বলেছেন...

Yes, you could say that about “a lot of politicians”. But Jeffries is the one featured in this post. Look at any photo of Jeffries and you’ll see the same thing. Fucker has the eyes of a barracuda.
