Lots of luck Malawi! Making natural bodily functions illegal is pretty darn impossible. Next thing you know it will be illegal to:

- breath
- cough
- sniffle
- burp
- blink your eyes
- etc.

I don't know whether to consider this "a breath of fresh air" or an "ill wind". :)

Actually, upon consideration, this could be a worthwhile expansion to the "Do Not Fly" list. Applying the reasoning in this law could make flying on commercial airlines a far more pleasant and environmentally friendly experience.

I think this leader saw Apple and how popular it is and was like "well if they banned farting, then so should we".

Glad it's not my country.... I would be an outlaw in minutes.

Ban farting and import cows.

Wonder if they will invent a scanner to sniff around the rear end similar to airport metal scanners?

Click to expand...

They will just use the probe they stick in the exhaust pipe to do vehicle emissions checks. It is an emissions check after all. :eek:

The problem with this thread is we had chili for dinner last night and I've developed the habit of saying, "That would have gotten me arrested in Africa . . ."
I already have enough bad habits without you guys help! ;)
