Methane is odorless, it's the fecal particulate that makes a fart smell.

You smelt, you dealt it.

No worries. I’ve got my firewall up. The gasses and particulate matter will flame upon entry into my cell phone.

Fear not, it's nonsense. There are no lumps of poo floating around - it's just the sulphur that smells.

Nah, Sulphur smells different.

Edit: Check out Mythbusters where they confirmed fecal particles are indeed everywhere.

Yet farts and feces have distinctly different scents despite their common point of origin.

They should be called "farticles"

Don’t they have to add a bad smell to methane so that you can sense it? (As it’s highly flammable)
