The Whitehall Ledger - Serving Southern Jefferson County in the Great State of Montana

Georgia, I have a question,

My family was having a reunion and we had a big dinner. I was sitting next to an aunt that I’d only met one other time and she was talking about something really boring, and crying and wailing at the dinner table. I had to fart, so I let one out and it was really horrible. One of my brothers laughed and the aunt went hysterical and my mom sent me to bed without dinner. Why would this be considered rude?

Dear Tootie,

It sounds as if your parents did not inform you that bodily functions should be done in the privacy of an empty room or a bathroom....
