Farting In Public?

I was waiting to get a high quality COVID test so I can as an Australian citizen move to Australia for the weather and work but also to be close to my mom. While I was in line for the test a big guy who must have been a foot taller than me I’m 5’4 btw and he blew a weird sounding fart that felt like a massive wall of stench. It smelt so disgusting I was feeling dizzy. I exclaimed “seriously” and physically jerked back. Though afterwards he said sorry ate something weird. I had to wait until I got to the door of the clinic to get a mask since I forgot mine at home. The guy and I both joked that we didn’t have masks.

I mean if I had a fart that bad I would be holding it in until I got home. So the question is do you ever fart in public if you feel the urge?

For those of who who’ll jump on me for forgetting my mask I was feeling a little tired since I was up late doing some work.
