According to a recent study done by the Languages of the World Department at RLCUA farting has become the new laugh of countries with poor diets. The study found that cultures with high fat, high fart probability diets tend to fart instead of laugh when something is funny. Some cultures have even stopped laughing, except in the event of a really juicy fart.
“We studied many groups, all with different types of diets. We even had a few that ate food that didn’t allow them to fart, all the way to a diet that caused them to fart as they were eating,” lead researcher Sailern Mcphart. “We found that farting can become part of everyday language, specifically replacing laughter. Our high fart groups would roar into farts when we told a funny joke.”
The study was sponsored by Methane Capture Corporation (MCC) in hopes that a new source of methane could be discovered. Little did they know they would hit a goldmine.
“We figured there might be a slight chance, but this news is just amazing.” MCC CEO Robert Robert said. “Just image, we can hire droves of poor eaters, and just entertain them. What a great job that would be! We can help reduce unemployment, and at the same time make people happy.”
Concerns over the health of people in these cultures is a hot topic, as well as environmental concerns.
“How many people can fart before we can’t even breath the air outside anymore!” concerned environmentalist Susan Blonde said. “I know I don’t want your fart factory in my back yard, and I bet you will be hard press to find someone who does.”
While the data from the study still needs to be processed more, these early conclusions are really causing a stir.
