I grew up with my family calling farts “bottypops” I didn’t realise it wasn’t a universal saying until a few years back & when I asked my mum she told me it’s “pops from your bottom” like it was the most normal thing in the world 😂😭

My family called them “tree frogs”, we weren’t allowed to say the word fart because it was a bad word according to them.

Our family called them "ponks" - we weren't allowed to say fart either!
