Question:

Why does my computer chair smell like farts?

Okay, this is a serious question. When I smell my seat, it straight up smells like farts. I am a clean person and occassionally let one rip (like anyone else), but it seems like my computer chair absorbs the smell.Is this normal? Do all chairs smell like this eventually? How do I get this embarrassing smell out?I find it embarrassing because now that I notice it, I'm not sure if other people who come over and use the computer will notice it to, or if it's just in my mind.And if a fart is just a gas, how come it doesn't just hit the chair and then evaporate away into the air? It makes me think there is more to farts than just gas. Maybe they also contain the elements solids and/or liquids. Please help. This is embarrassing. Now it has me thinking that my car seat probably stinks, too. Is this normal?Please, everyone out there - in the privacy of your home, bend down and smell your own chair. Does it smell like farts, too? Tell me I'm not alone.

Answer:

Not alone! I didnt smell the chair, but I know it smells cuz I have noticed before. It is super weird because I am sitting in a used chair for my new job so it is especially gross knowing i am probably smelling someone else! Febreeze hasnt worked nor perfume. The smell always returns. Going to try a few other suggestions and if they dont work I'm putting in for a new chair!
And what are those brown stripes spots on cloth covered office chairs? I used to call them menstrual chairs. I don't think farts cause brown stains.
I have noticed that Plastic Chairs get a Funny whiff of it after awhile, I dont know why. You know the Polyprophylene Chairs in Offices and Churches and Municipal Buildings. I am not going to smell my own Chair for you. Try washing it and then have a sniff when dry. Give it a Blast of Febreeze to get rid of the nasty Pong. LOL.
If it really stinks i reccomend a new chair. like every chair will start stinking if you sit on it for too long.
The urge to squeal with laughter here is enormous but i will retain my dignity and not laugh cos i realise that you are totally serious here?sorry, not laughing just smiling now? you are very entertaining though?I love being entertained? i did bend down and smell my chair for you hun and no, it doesn't smell like farts? Perhaps your chair is made of material and is simply absorbing dirt, dust and smells and aromas from just daily living ie ~ perfumes, food smells, cigarette smoke etc.etc.etc. A good way to spritz it up and sanitise it is to go get yourself some pure essential eucalyptus oil from the chemist or local pharmacy. Put a capfull of eucalyptus oil into a spray bottle full of warm water, shake well and spray over the entire surface of your chair and wipe over with a damp cloth or sponge. Eucalyptus oil is a brilliant antibacterial and antiseptic agent and will eliminate all those nasty odors that are bugging you so much? It is also an all natural remedy and contains no chemicals or nasties to irritate sensitive bodies? Caution: Don't use eucalyptus oil if you have high blood pressure or suffer from epilepsy?if either is the case simply substitute for pure essential tea tree oil, which is also a great antibacterial and antiseptic? Thanx for the giggle, i really didn't mean to offend you ~ your honesty is so wonderfully refreshing? CHEERS ?
