China part deux
When me and my friend were in China, both of us had contracted diarrhoea. I was suffering from consipation at the same time. My friend wanted to get some medicine, but I decided to go un-medicated. The reason for this is that the expert opinion of 21st century medical science is that if you have both the big D and the big C at the same time, you're fucked.

Anyway, we went to a chemists in Beijing. We were approached by two young female shop-assistants who we quickly established did not speak a tongue in common with us. My friend, being the smooth talker that he is immediatley broke down the language barrier.

PFLFFFFFT was what came out his mouth.

This would have been very impressive had it come from the toilet-cubicle next door, but he managed it with his mouth. The two young shop assistants became exciatable in that way that young asian women become exitable. The were chorusing what must be chinese for "Oh yes. I know what you want. Hihihihi!". He quickly recieved his medicine, paid and left, but I could not help wondering if he had mistakenly picked up anti-flatulence medicine instead.

Ah, the universal language of Fart Noises!
I genuinely believe that if Aliens landed from the planet Zog-179, went in to boots and said:

"Yarg! Sbhnhj flam squeehol rama lama ding dong... PFLFFFFFT "

We'd know what they meant.

*click* :)

Universal language
So does that mean if we talk out our arses, we're bound to be understood everywhere?

Haha
Politicians have been trying that for years... I meant 'sound', I think.

Bugger. :)
