German Shoelaces

The act of backing up into someone's face while they're bending over to tie their shoes, for the sole purpose of farting directly into their face. This act can be performed without removing your pants, but it is hilarious to do it with your pants down. For optimal performance, consider eating Ex-Lax before performing this act to brown-wash your victim.

They say the German Shoelaces will grow hair on your chest -- if it doesn't burn the hair out of your nose, first. Hope you don't get a turd to the eyeball, man!
Whoa! That German Shoelaces gave him a turdy Hitler moustache! Sick, man!
