MobiFart

If anal humour is your bag then definitely look no further than MobiFart as this will cause you to wet yourself in hysterics.

As the name indicates, you use this application to convert your mobile phone into a mobile joke whoopee cushion. With a selection of 10 different sounds to choose from there’s a potential sound just right for any occasion – no matter where you may be.

Farting, although commonplace, is still definitely a taboo in polite society. So to avoid instant detection the application comes with a useful countdown timer which gives you up to 90 seconds before ‘launch’.

I can instantly think of some very funny situations where you could apply this application. Please note that the following suggestions are only ideas and perhaps ill-advised in practice – I will not take the blame for anyone caught using this application and being told off or worse. The first location would have to be in the classroom, lift, office or on the bus. Alternatively, you could use this in and around the home and picking on your siblings and friends.

The thing about this application is that to avoid detection of yourself you may want to be creative in terms of where you hide the phone. This is because if you’ve got the phone on you when you let rip, you’ll give the game away or potentially end up isolated in the room as everyone will want to be as far away from you as possible (just in case it’s not fake). This in itself poses a bit of a gamble as your phone will, if found, instantly give you away and no doubt lead to some detention or lack of any tea!

However, this is a great little programme for anyone to use at just about any time. The only drawback is that the counter is only up to 90 seconds and when selecting the desired noise, it plays it – meaning you will have to plan your attack very carefully rather than on impulse.

Some of the sounds are far too synthesised but there are some good ones in there which will certainly make people laugh, gag or flee in panic. If you could remotely trigger off the sounds by calling the phone for example or using it as a text sound effect then this would definitely give you a good giggle also.

I will say that once the initial humour’s worn off there’s the possibility you’ll only end up using this application sparingly, but at least it has some shelf-life and can be used whenever you like and how you like – just make sure you have a clean getaway plan.
