When someone farts just enough for only the farter to smell it, and no one else.

Similar to subsistence farming, but related to passing gas and not raising crops.

Person B: Did you just fart? Why don't I smell it?

Person A: I guess only I can smell it.

Person B: Thank you for subsistence farting!

subsistence business 

Any business with a lax business model, allowing only for the owner(s) to maintain a middle-class or lower lifestyle. Sometimes dishonest practices including but not limited to: tax evasion, insurance fraud, and forced child labor; are utilized to keep the business profitable.

Most mom and pop stores are subsistence businesses. Notice how they whine about the local Walmart, yet hypocritically resell Walmart products in their stores.
