My family has been eating a lot of beans lately and so I’ve been extra gassy as a result. So, so much gas. Not odorous, just high volume. Anyway, I work in a cubicle setting with reasonably high divider walls that give off the illusion of semi privacy, which can make it difficult to determine if people are around.

It was nearing the end of my work day when most everyone is gone and a quick visual glance confirmed there was no one in earshot. So obviously I let one go, like a tuba. Then, a coworker two cubicles over who is a known sloucher stands up from behind her wall and just stares at me. I could see her in my peripheral vision and in an attempt to save face just kept looking straight ahead at my monitor and broke out into an obnoxious beatbox. She sat back down after a judgy stare and acknowledged neither the fart or the beatboxing.

I’ve now been doing an inappropriate amount of beatboxing lately in a feeble attempt to convince her that it wasn’t an epic fart, but its obvious she knows.
