flatusidal tendencies 

a disorder whereby a person has recurring thoughts about breaking wind in crowded and, often times, confined places (This is a dangerous situation in which the person in question is on the verge of becoming a sphincter Sinatra if he/she does not receive professional help or, at the very least, a bitch slap by his/her friends.)
Paratrooper: Sarge, I know it’s not the time but I keep thinking about plantin’ some onion.
Jumpmaster: GOT DAMN IT!!! Ya better at-ease those flatusidal tendencies or I’ll toss your goat-smellin’ ass off this bird right now, green light or not.

Field of flatus 

The fragrant force field resulting from someone passing gas. Usually the flatulator (or flatulatrix, if it was a lady) will have already fled the scene. If you arrive immediately after the offense occurred, you might bounce off the invisible dome of stench (you are essentially being repelled by the force field of flatus). Sometimes, it’s hard to know where the borders of the flatus field are, and in these cases it is safe to assume that some time passed between the original offense and your arrival on scene. Most fields of flatus will dissipate within 5 minutes. Some of the most notable ones have been rumoured to last well over an hour...however, no one has actually stuck around long enough to verify this.
Do NOT go in there! I left a field of flatus and I think it’ll last about five-to-ten...

I swear to God - that man created a field of flatus right before he stepped off the elevator...I sure hope no one joins me on this trip and blames me for the smell!

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
