Farted Quote by Stephen King
““Fat Johnny reached down, and as he grasped the wallet, he farted loudly and screamed. With faint amusement the gunslinger realized he had mistaken the sound of his own fart for a gunshot and his time of dying had come. When Fat Johnny stood up, he was blushing furiously. There was a large wet patch on the front of his pants.””
