Another really common thing that happens to everyone is the fart-sneeze. It’s like our body just malfunctions and this crazy thing happens. We don’t feel like farting, we haven’t even thought about it but it just happens.

It’s really funny because when this happens people don’t normally notice, unless it smells really bad. And then we play it off like nothing happened. Of course the whole time were trying to figure out if they really didn’t hear anything or if they’re just trying to be polite. This creates a really uncomfortable scenario. You’ll feel self-conscious the whole time you’re with everyone and just can't wait to leave.

I normally try to come up with some pretense to leave the group. The best one that I always use and one that works for almost every occasion is a work related emergency with a foreign client. They whine and ask me to just ignore it but we’re all working already so we know how valuable it is to keep your boss happy so they let me go.
