The fact that this is the #1 selling (yes, SELLING) app for iPhone tells you all you need to know about the iPhone demographic. I get embarrassed pulling out my iPhone in public. Too bad it's so awesome. :(

Dan, you seem to suffer from fartophobia. How sad. Farts are wonderful things, really. My ex took great pride in his farts, which were almost musical, little "riffs" in a way (sadly, he never let me try and light 'em). It was one reason I stayed with that poor disturbed soul as long as I did.

I use my phone to make phone calls. I don't need a device to manufacture intestinal gas. Is that so wrong?

For those who prefer the traditional book form, here's the link for "Farts, A spotter's guide"

Did they really have to play the music as if it's something they would be airing on any given prime time week night???...so what tv show would be a good fit? Something on CW maybe?
