The fart chart....the new science of fart compatibility!!

In an attempt to lower the divorce rate, I've devised a helpful tool to determine the possible detrimental effects of farts in your relationship and how to decipher fart-related conflict.

It works with 8 important factors, 4 for your partner's farts and 4 of your qualities that relate directly to farts. These items are rated on a scale of 1-10, 1 being low, 10 being high. I've grouped them by 2's in what I found to be the most strategic pairs.

duration vs sensitivity
potency vs intimacy
saturation vs tolerance
frequency vs expectations

I've included a graph of my and my partner's scores as an example. We are happily married. Farts have come between us a time or two though, and farts have also been the scapegoat for a whole different problem. The graph would tell us that, and also gauge fairly accurately how often this would happen and how serious it would be.

WARNING: Results must be interpreted by a professional!!

PS**Excuse the % signs, they're not supposed to be there, it should just be plain numbers from 1-10.

Genius, sheer genius!! 19
I wish I saw this before I got married! 6

    I didn't laugh until I saw the word saturation.

        • Someday, perhaps years from now, you'll be browsing the shelves at Barnes & Noble for marriage reference books, and then, good sir, you'll know who I am.

            Three problems with that. 1. years from now Barnes & Noble will not exist, it will go the way of Boarders. 2. If it did still exist, I'd rather go to BAM. 3. I will never get married.

    • Same here.
      Saturation? What the hell is that supposed to mean?
      No, no. Don't tell me. I really don't want to know.

      I had no idea farts were a serious problem in some marriages. I guess there's a term for it too: "Fart-related conflict" Who knew? :)

      • Another word we in the fart science world may use for saturation is 'permeation'. I prefer 'saturation' because it speaks more for the heaviness of a fart. A fart need not permeate too far in order to saturate thoroughly. Since I am a pioneer in this field, I am responsible for a lot, I am making the rules that lesser men will have to follow, and I decided on saturation after some deliberation.

        • When I read "saturation", I thought of a wet fart and saturation would be what happens to the undies. Air pollution was not something I immediately considered.

          I like your graph. :)

          • Oh, well we here at the Institute would never consider that sort of saturation as it's not universal that one party is responsible for the other's laundering of the undergarments. That's a different issue, one which we may pass up to one of our other departments although we'd definitely share data.

            • Holy Crap! I never thought of the laundry part of it. That would definitely cause some problems. I think if one person had to launder another's poop-stained underwear, it could get ugly. Especially, if it was known that they were forcing their farts out on purpose and kept sharting in the process.

              If I lived with a person who was overly flatulent, I'd encourage them to take probiotics and to lay off the foods that cause them gassiness.

  • Telling a joke that's long and complicated always runs the risk of being poorly received, although that probably wasn't your intent.

    It's not very effective...

    FREE CHART ANALYSIS...

    I noticed the farting exceeds the spouse standard in 3 out of 4 categories. So who is walking around with a respirator( or white face mask) on at your home?

    I am working in the crapology department of the fart science branch, currently researching the affect of poop on sociability and peer acceptance. My theory is that friendship is ultimately established following a conversation of poop. If either party is disgusted by the conversation, the relationship will never evolve beyond the point achieved prior to the poop conversation. It's nice to see others advancing in this department :)
