Guilty Pleasures, part 2It's been a while since we last asked this question and CaptainFellatioNelson's confession that he likes "to fart under the duvet, creep in and see how long I can last only on the fart air contained within" reminded us just how good it was last time.
What are the little things you do for fun when nobody else is around?

I wondered this tooand I've come up with two thoughts:
1) having to pass through layers of fabric filters some of the noxious gases out and delays the release of the whole fart, so that it presents itself to your olfactory organ over a longer period. There may also be some sort of gas chromatography going on, separating the fart into its constituent components, and
2) the water in the bath dissolves some of the fart component and removes it from being released into the air. Or possibly a reaction occurs between the fart gases and the soap in the bath. Also, the whole fart volume is released at the same time, without being constrained by fabric, assuming you bathe naked like normal people.
Any comments, fellow scientists?
