‘trouser coughs’! I love that description and yes I am guilty – and it’s getting worse as I get older. It’s not the ‘letting go’ ones I detest it’s the ‘let’s expel it with as much force as women use in labour’ kind that drives me nuts. Since we are on the subject dad’s have changed recently from the forced ‘rolling’ kind to explosive thunderclaps. Hell of a scary as you get no warning – with the rolling ones he used to lean to the side so you were ready for them. Sorry I know too much information – I’m off.

I crack my knuckles…
I slouch in my seat…
I cross my legs, which I’m told ladies must never do…
I…well…that’s all I can think of at the moment.

You say you fart and you get it from your dad??

What does this mean exactly, that your Mom’s never let go of a trouser cough?

Everybody farts. “The day is long, an the night is yours alone, for dutch oven pumping/ every body farts/ it’s true”

No I don’t have any bad habits.
None at all.

Except maybe the odd white lie in an odd comments box from time to time

Everybody does these things, the trick is simply not to let others see you do it. I also crack my knuckles incessently, which drives everybody round the twist and they always tell me I will get arthritis as a result. I’ve been doing it since I was around 12 years old, and I’m now 43 and don’t have arthritis, and I figure most of us get it anyway when we get old so I’m consigning that one to the “old wives tale” pile.
