deucomatic

OK, I'm the first to admit, that when it comes to humour I take the low road. Some of my friends would argue that I left the low road a long time ago in favour of digging, hitting rock bottom, and swapping my shovel for a pick. I feel vindicated that I found this little gem that proves that fart jokes are not only universal but not limited to any particular period in history. I'm referring to the 'He-Gassen' scroll, translated into English 'The fart war'. Made during the Japanese Edo period, between 200 & 400 years ago. This particular scroll depicts some monumental typhoon like bottom blasts who's powers have been harnessed for the destruction mankind and their pet cats. Please enjoy the following images taken from the 'He-Gassen' scroll, or not, whatever the case may be.
