Dear reader, you come here to read about the current political climate of Japan, enjoy personal accounts of interesting festivals, catch up on the latest Hello Kitty goods, and laugh at an oddly worded T-shirt. But I know the unasked question that has been on your lips. And I know the answer.

What about farting?

Do Japanese fart like the rest of us? Do they play fart games? Are they so inspired by flatulence as to put pen to paper and author stories and poems?

Yes.

You’re welcome.
