U.S. Marines In Afghanistan Ordered Not To Fart Audibly
So here’s the news: audible farting has been banned for some Marines downrange because it offends the Afghans.

I know there are many things in the Afghan culture that don’t seem normal to Americans and it’s hard to spend seven months working in someone else’s back yard. Still, the Marines I saw downrange are doing a pretty good job at trying to do the right thing around the Afghans.

They’re not supposed to cuss because it could be misunderstood (that one goes out the window a lot). And they stay away from talking about politics, religion or girls because those topics could escalate into major disagreements (they can’t communicate anyway because of the language barrier).

But farting? That’s practically a sport. Ok, it’s not soccer, but a good contest could open the door for cross-cultural exchanges, jokes and other gallows humor.

This is likely the final straw for the US Marines.

This will end in thousands of hungover, flatulent Devil Dogs marauding through the Afghan streets and crippling the population with ass gas.

Mark my words. The shit is about to hit the afghan.
