Fart Fact 4

A woman's fart smells worse than a man's. Although this may sound difficult to believe it is absolutely true! Although women and men produce the same amount of flatulence, a study conducted by Dr. Michael D Levitt, a gastroenterologist working in Minneapolis, found that women's farts consistently contain significantly greater concentrations of hydrogen sulphide, so they are definitely smellier.

“Fairly sure, why do you ask?”
“Well it’s because of fart fact 4.”

Lick and a Promise

This is originally London slang and quite an old expression; its first recorded use is in 1838 in an English newspaper (The Era) where it was used to describe a uninterested or half-assed attempt at any sort of task or job. Gradually its use changed until, by the time The Era closed in 1939, it was used and still is used to describe a perfunctory wash, less thorough that even HF-AGBA, a BBA or an airplane bath.

Malcolm’s really stinking this morning, I don’t think he even bothered with a lick and a promise.

SFA

An acronym with multiple meanings:
1. Sweet Fuck All;
2. Smelly Fat Arse/Ass;
3. Sweet Fanny Adams;
4. Sad Fucking Act;

There are probably more than the ones listed here, but you can see from context that there is nothing good about any of them, so if someone uses SFA and your name in the same sentence they ain’t paying you a compliment.

Malcolm has:
1. SFA in the way of brains;
2. A very large SFA;
3. Is worth SFA to the organisation;
4. and is a complete SFA.

Sycophancy

Sycophancy is self-serving or servile flattery. It probably derives from the Latin sȳcophantia, meaning trickery, and consists of the fawning behaviour of useless two-faced self-seeking toe rag who attempts to win favour by flattering and pandering to the boss. A person who does this is known as a sycophant or more informally as ass-kisser, crawler, toady, lackey, apple polisher, boot licker, fawner, groveler, groveller, or truckler.

Sycophancy, that snotrag Malcolm wrote the book.
