I did this in an elevator at college on my way up to pick up girls for lunch. But took the stairwell on the way down while they took the elevator. I ran down to see their reaction as they got off. They looked like I did leaving the gas chamber in basic training.

I am a farter, as was my father and his father before him. My son is learning the ways of the farter tho I bemoan that he values frequency over potency.

I'm fartin' over here!

I was trying to finish a 18 eggs in a week because I needed to travel

The level of sulfur in my farts was comparable to visiting a sulfur mine. It was absolutely brutal.

I did not finish all 18. 18 is a lot of eggs. I am not Gaston or Cool Hand Luke.

18 in a week sounds very doable, 3 a day isn't much and you finish in 6 days.

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 day ago

It is doable, but I also wasn’t that committed after a few days.

I gave them to a family member instead

Breakfast burritos everyday bro

Haha I love eggs but it'd be hard for me to get to 18 in a week. Maybe deviled eggs.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's only about 2.5 eggs per day. Cook a 3 egg omelette for breakfast for 4 days, and you've already used up a dozen. Make some egg salad for lunch a few times, and cook a few pans of brownies or cookies, and you'll burn through them easily.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I may have been too narrowly focused for this.

[–] alsimoneau@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Between fried eggs, egg sandwiches, deviled eggs and baking, you can go through 18 quite easily no?

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I did two eggs for breakfast and a fried egg sandwich for 3 days, then just the sandwich, then omelettes, but it wasn’t enough.

I’ve never made devils eggs, I guess I should have tried. Ended up giving them to family.

[–] alsimoneau@lemmy.ca 2 points 17 hours ago

My so has a brownie recipe that takes 6 eggs. A double batch of that and you're good!

I am not Gaston

Best line in the whole movie/musical IMO:

"When I was a lad, I ate four dozen eggs every morning to help me get large. And now that I'm grown, I eat five dozen eggs, so I'm roughly the size of a barge!"
