I'd like to brag about a talent that not many people know I have, and in turn, hear about what other people have discovered they can do through sheer boredom or whatever.

I like to light my farts which is pretty funny when you see it for the first few times, and though i'd be interested to know of fellow fart lighters, I'd rather focus on the fact that I can slap a tune out on my face. To do so I have to make a pretty retarded face, but, by slapping the stretched skin between my jaw bones and moving my jaw a little I can play a decipherable melody. I can also do it by flicking my teeth, but face slapping is more comfortable, even though I do look like an http://www.absolutespa.com/. I haven't tried many tunes but I'm willing to post a you tube video of me doing one if anyone wants to request one.

I know you probably won't be able to top my amazing skill, but in the hope that someone can, I'm just putting it out there, and if not maybe I'll at least discover some fellow fart lighters.

Für Elise

I can make a really cool noise by letting air out of my cheek in the right way. At primary school everyone loved it. Maybe they still would now. Time for a reuinion.

yes, that's all you get!

I might be the third-best rubik's cuber in the Countdown community (after Chris Davies and Dan Harris) with a pb of just under 32 seconds- and I can solve larger cubes (up to 7x7x7) and other shapes as well.

I am incredibly proficient at solving nine-lettered anagrams, or finding the longest word from a random selection of nine letters. Not only that, but given six smallish numbers and a larger number, I can usually conceive of a calculation using the smaller ones that equals the bigger one. All of this in less than the time it takes Neb to solve a Rubik's Cube.

Good point.

Quality Andy! To be fair I've seen you looking more of a spaz in other pics

Fucking brilliant.

Cheers lads. The beard lessens the impact and mutes the sound a bit unfortunately but that probably wasn't a bad thing given the housemates were alseep. So doesn't anyone else light their farts?

I prefer to cup them and throw them at people.

This video sounds more graphic than I'd have expected (can't see from here). I'd have thought that far from lessening the impact, a beard would be dangerous for your flaming ringpiece...

Well, the beard's already on fire anyway. Fart throwing. Interesting.

2 hands, right? Then more of a carry and release, rather than a throw?

I like that you've clearly been practising for the last couple of hours since your previous post.

I like that you like to think I have been!

I would have if I'd worked up enough gas already today, but looks like I'll have to wait til later.

Kieran Child solved a 7x7x7 in such a way so that KAI was spelt out on 3 of the sides. Which was pretty cool.

That stuff blows my mind in fairness.

Given your earlier posts in this thread there's a good pun in there somewhere, but I can't be arsed to think of one.

Really? I do the teeth flicking one. I mainly do Popcorn (Jean Michel Jarre) because it seems to suit the sound. I did wonder whether it actually sounded like popcorn (or whether it just did to me) but other people have recognised it easily.

I can also do Rolf Harris's "water drip" noise on my cheek.

By Hot Butter actually.

Wikipedia tells me it was recorded by Gershon Kingsley originally.

But yeah, you're right, I was playing the Hot Butter one, not the JMJ one. Well spotted

I can fart using my hands. I believe this useless talent is named manualism.
