Why don't people say the proper word?

It annoys me, My parents tried very hard to get me to have good manners, and there is lots of people that, don't say passing wind or flatulance, nearly everybody says it, I am too polite to say, you will have to work it out.

The word "fart" upsets you? It is a coarse word, but it's commonplace now.

As the queens of etiquette would say, "all that needs to be said is 'excuse me.'"

No better way to separate the wheat from the chaff than by listening for an interest in digestive noises emitting from the body. The country folks love to talk about passing gas, don't they??

The proper term is "fart." The word "flatulence" is just what the fancy people use to sound sophisticated.
