Fart or vomit.
I asked QT and Bev this question and a few others. And I find the responses very telling.
Let’s say you’re on a date with a guy very early on in a relationship. Would you rather accidently fart in front of him or vomit on him?
QT and Bev both said: Vomit on him.
WTF.
Well, thank God it’s not a choice people really have to face because I’m telling you right now that if a girl chose to vomit on me, I’d be right offended.
I just re-read this. I think I should start going to bed earlier.

What? Seriously? Fart. Then again, vomiting (for me) is a totally traumatic experience. Farting, by comparison, can be laughed off. If the other person doesn’t make it some big, weird deal, then that person’s a keeper. Not that I’d make farting on first dates a habit, of course.
What the hell am I talking about, though? I haven’t had a first date in over ten years.

Both would be awful, but I’d have to say fart. Ugh. I don’t do either in front of my husband, I’m trying to keep a little romance alive over here.

I also asked my friend Becky this question and she said “vomit.”
No hesitation or pause at all. Just… “vomit.”
And for the record, I have done both in front of my husband
It’s hard not to after 11+ years together

My initial reaction is vomit as well… then again you can laugh off farting… so now I’m torn. And… it depends on WHY you’re vomiting… are you too drunk vomiting or food poisoning vomiting? These details make a difference. haha

What Avitania said. Ditto.
I, in fact, did let one go in front of the man I eventually married (and divorced) early in our dating days. We both laughed hysterically.
I mean think about it: Most men are pretty proud of their farts. Why wouldn’t they get a kick out of our minor passing of gas?
Vomiting, however, is pretty traumatic for both parties.

I have accidentially vomited on more than one guy on a first date.
Maybe I should drink less.

I’m sticking with vomiting. For me, I’d be much less mortified by puking on him.

Fart, fart, fart! I’d rather fart 10 times in front of the guy than vomit once – but I am loathe to vomit. I’m totally in sync with Avitania on this one.
