Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Sounds like the walking is the real positive impact. Farting is just a fun aside.

Walking is an underestimated form of exercise and farts are often hilarious.

But both can also be disastrous. You could misstep and roll an ankle, or a fart could end up with more substance than expected.

Be careful out there fart walkers.

But without the first pioneers, how would we know the risks? I salute you, fart walking astronauts! You took the risks and paved the way so we don't have to fear. I mean, we're still going to check for skid marks but someone has to go there first.

Fart-space-walking really sounds like a terrible idea. Unless they have some sort of charcoal filtered undies up there.

You gotta think like NASA: Store the farts and use them as propulsion!

Crop dusting your annoying coworkers on your way out of the office has proven mental health benefits

If you're not saving up to hit crowded elevators, are you even trying?

Yeah I was about to say, this is just the 2024 tiktok-dumbified version of "walking is healthy, surprise surprise".
