Word of the Day: Windy pops
Stephen wasn’t feeling well at home time yesterday and his teacher told me that while he was sitting on her lap, he let out a few “windy pops.” I wouldn’t have known what she was talking about except she pinched her nose while saying it. Do you know what windy pops are?
Windy pops is one of the many ways to say “farts,” which was first used in the 14th century. Smelly Science has more and here are some that are new to me:
- Air tulip
- Butt trumpet
- Duvet lifter
- Trouser cough
- Smelly jelly
What do you say when someone farts?
PS The poor boy really did have tummy trouble and had to go to the toilet right away when he got home. I’m amazed he was able to hold it that long!

I don’t get all fancy. I just say fart. I used to keep one of those pot-pourri warming pots in my office. If it was turned on, my co-workers knew to stay away. Then I went to the easier method of spraying air freshener. Now I just don’t bother. I am way too gassy. If I stopped to spray the air every time I farted I would never get anything done. And the office would smell like a freaking flower show.
Enter my office at your own peril.
mdmhvonpa: Hey! You’re so creative that’s not even on their list!
Sheila: I may have to rethink meeting you in person. On the other hand, we could have a tooting contest!
I like to say it in Mandarin: Fang Pi
Doris: Thanks for the comment! Fang Pi is a good secret code for it when out in public. Unless you’re in a Chinese-speaking country, of course. Then windy pops would be a good code word!
