No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

The fart waves phase and cancel eachother out, like no one farted at all
If you fart in the forest and nobody hears it, did it really make a sound?
It makes a smell.
Like roses, and petroleum jelly?
Schroedinger's fart
What is the sound of one asscheeks clapping?
))≈(( Fart back and forth forever.

The person that pushes the hardest sends their fart and the other fart into the other person's chamber.

i regret reading this post
What a terrible time to be literate.
Is flatulence pressure a sphincter strength game or abdominal strength game?
A chain is only as strong as it's weakest link. The entire GI system will be probed for weakspots. If the sphictor to sphinctor seal is stronger than say, one participant's colon, even with equal pressure, the weakest spot will perforate and burst. The gas of both participants will then flood the available cavity and expand until either equalization of the outward gas and inward retailing wall of fat and skin amd whatnot, or pressures will rise until another breach is found.
While quite correct, this is of course all theoretical. There are many details that would need accounting for. I have a research proposal I'm happy to share if anyone has any funding.
Sphincter (i would think)
You don't push out farts with your butthole, so I would start doing crunches before you try this.
Isnt the reason dead people cant fart because they cant clench?
Clenching keeps the fart inside. A VERY relaxed butthole may let the fart out without making noise. To push the fart out you use other muscles.
That doesnt sound right but I dont know enough about buttholes to dispute it 🤔
But i think theres a difference between whatever it is the butthole is doing when its just normal/you're not tensing or clenching it and when you actually actively clench it. Its not normally clenched as a relaxed state its just naturally contracted or something
The fart particles will likely intermingle, because the 2 people ate different foods for the last 36 hours. Lord help us if they've eaten the same food
fart particles
Don't you mean.... farticles?
yess
A person's gut bacteria is unique. You could literally eat the exact same thing down to the last molecule as someone else and it would be processed differently between you two.
This the kind of shit I'm here for.
