Farting. Burping. Choose

[Faris]

Which of the above do you find more repulsive or rude?

I honestly, find burping with an open mouth more rude, because of the level of control. You can avoid burping, and its quiet easy to. Farting, is very discomforting to hold, or "withdraw" plus its funnier to hear a fart than a burp. What do you think?

[Falisa]

It all depends on the situation but if I'm in a place where it matters, I find them both rude. Farting not so much because I guess sometimes theres nothing you can do about it..but most of the time you can hold them in lmao Burping though, if they just burp outloud with their mouth open, i think thats really rude. You can hold them both in and if someone comes into my house for the first time as a guest, I don't like it very much if they fart and burp all the over the place (I say that because of personal experience... lol)

Both are nessary ways to release gas.

Burping to me is less rude unless you're making an ass of yourself, as when I burp in public I'll either cover my mouth or burp with my mouth closed (My nose will burn from the release though).

Farting is fine as long as it's not one of the nasty ones. you know, the ones that one whiff will send you packing

[Tricen]

They are completely unrelated though >_>. Farting is just.... Bleh... Burping is more social fun since it's just regular gas. Farts are a methane sulfur stuff and nasty <_<

I prefer farting as social fun, lol. I always try and make girls fart, oh its hilarious.

"guys sorry if it smells" ....*Fart*

a minute later..."Awwww, it stinks, wtf! go take a shit man"

laughter, followed by tears, followed by laughter with tears.

[Tricen]

Eh burping is laughed at and then everyone moves on. Farting is like "wow wtf did you just fart?"

[Ramor]

there's definitely hilarity in both, when used in the proper situations:
for instance, a SBD fart used in a car full of other guys with the windows rolled up without saying anything until it hits them all at once while you have a huge stupid grin on your face can be pretty funny.

a loud fart in the middle of your lecture class when it's dead silent because the teacher's trying to explain something that no one understands is also hilarious, except the person who unknowingly farted that loud.

burping's definitely more of a social gas like someone said, it's generally funny and aside from rare instances of being in a "high-end" situation (fancy-shmancy restaurant, the likes) is pretty much always welcome, especially when you and your friends rate them on a 1-10 scale where a 10 is relatively unreachable.

wow... no.

If both are on purpose, the farting is the one I find to be more rude.

Neither are rude, they're necessary biological functions. Might's well get pissed at someone for breathing or producing ATP.

While I carry myself with strict manners in public, I still think burping is the more rude. You can close or cover your mouth when you burp and still excuse yourself. You can excuse yourself if you fart, but it's not like you can plug your ass in public. Burping with an open mouth, especially at the dinner table, is like sneezing without turning away or covering your nose. They may be biological imperatives but I don't want your snot or gas all over my face. At least when you fart the only discomfort is the smell and a few laughs from everyone around you.

The other day I was sitting with a friend and turned to her and let out a great belch right in her face. In response she leaned over and ripped a huge fart right on my leg.

Neither offend me. However, I realize they offend others, so in a public setting I try not to let either happen.

[Nirokun!]

oh god

i think farting can be funny if its someone that you know and are comfortable with (my dad ... omg he's like a 12yo sometimes) and i really dont think anything of burping. but someone you dont know not having the grace to hold it until they're alone/away from other people is just disrespectful to me. Doing that male-competitive burping is retarded, but im not grossed-out about it.

[Tristam]

Shit is situational

I have some epic fart wars with my brother, when I go on vacation with my family we usually end up in the same room and I literally plan my meals to achieve maximum flatulence.

My girlfriend however, I would much rather her burp.

[Deftscythe]

I can't think of a situation where one would be appropriate, and the other wouldn't. It's either both, or neither. At a formal occasion you don't want to do either, with your friends it's ok(and often funny) to do both.

[AoE]

I was honestly never raised to perceive burping as rude. I mean sure as sure hell won't burp right in someone's face but I'm never afraid to do so if it needs to come out with the obvious exceptions to some situations.

Farting on the other hand was made such a big deal by my brothers and cousins that I wouldn't dare fart in public unless I'm absolutely sure no one's gonna smell it or I'm long gone from that area after it's done.

crowded loud event, say a club or bar?

ok to burp imo, not ok to fart imo. I've never cared about a burp at a bar, but damn some nasty farts have made me want to leave.

Obviously you want to fart when your done at a checkout line during black friday. Seriously though, I dont have a problem with either though, but if its a bad fart I tend to distance myself a little.

well, your ass might decieve you sometimes. makes you think its going to be a little harmless fart, then sudeenly its friggin mustard gas all over the place. Its hard to predict sometimes whats going to come out.

the words "Explosive Diarrhea" come to mind, that and the chick in the hot tub scene from one of those reality shows

Burping is considered polite in some countries. IIRC in Korea, it's very polite to burp at the table, because it's a compliment to the chef.

I'm never offended at either one, though depending on the situation, I of course do my best to hold them in, or make as little noise as possible, if it's called for. If it's not, I don't care.
